Abstract

Agricultural chemicals spraying is one of the most efficient methods for pesticides control. General farming groups use Speed Sprayer but its deposition amount on practical crops is only 20% of total amount in SS case. Agricultural chemicals which fail to arrive the crops not only cause environmental contamination but loss of agriculture chemicals by lower deposition efficiency. For the purpose of improvement of these problems, this experiment proposes SS attachment type electrostatic induction spraying apparatus with DC power which improves deposition efficiency of agriculture chemicals on the crops.
