20 Summary Cropping structures in SZ: extreme differences Spraying equipment & penetrability Principles for dose expression and dose adjustment From DOSAFRUT to DOSA3D Conclusions & proposal 21

21 EPPO document 2001/8780 mentioned by Vlasta Zlof mentioned by Gabriele Kovacs and Gregor Kral (background paper) the ideal method for expression of the dose should take account of the total leaf area in relation to the field area but should be sufficiently simple to be understandable on the product label and practical for farmers. It should also take account of the efficiency of spraying technique 22

32 Hypothesis for effective dose deposition 1. High density net: min 100 impacts cm Robustness, mean droplet dimension: 225 µm Ø => Base dosing: 0.6 µl cm -2 = 60 L ha -1 VV LL haa 1 = 60 2 LLLLLL = 120 LLLLLL

39 Conversion between models of dose expression DOSA3D (L ha -1 ) Crop factor (CF) BBCH / LAI / Leafiness (m 2 /m 3 ) Spraying factor (SF) Efficiency Concentration (%) (kg/l) Liquid volume (L ha -1 ) Crop area (kg ha -1 ) 1 / Canopy height (m) Canopy height (m) * Canopy width (m) / Distance between rows (m) Tree Row Volume (kg ha -1 ) / (m 3 ha -1 ) 2 / Canopy width(m) Canopy height (kg ha -1 m -1 ) Distance between rows (m) / 2 Leaf Wall Area (kg ha -1 ) / (10 4 m 2 LWA ha -1 ) 40

40 Example of label for one product Concentration on the liquid tank: 0.05% Volume rate: adjust to the crop stage and spraying efficiency Canopy width Volume rate (L ha-1) for each 1 m of canopy height < 1.0 m m >2.0 m For more accurate adjustment use officially recognized tools + = 41

41 Conclusions & proposal LWA can be useful in the NZ & CZ where very narrow structures predominate To be reflexive before the introduction in the SZ: not the only method In the SZ, to recommend the dose by means: Concentration (%) + Volume rate (L ha -1 ) & adjusting the volume rate to: mid height mid width leafiness (growing stage or estimated porosity) For more accurate adjusting (spraying efficiency) Use officially recognized tools on internet / App mobile (ongoing)
