DROPS aims to enhance pesticide application in fruit orchards by developing a system that predicts droplet size and dispersion. By integrating measurement techniques with computational models, the project seeks to minimize pesticide losses and improve environmental safety.
In fruit tree crops, which are vital to EU agriculture, efficient pesticide use is crucial for maintaining high yields and assuring market quality.
However, traditional spraying methods often result in significant pesticide losses through drift and runoff, posing environmental and health risks.
Although new smart sprayers equipped with pulse width modulation (PWM) valves are designed to control flow rates and minimise off-target losses, the droplet size variations caused by pressure fluctuations…
