BSE 591 - Environmentally-Sensitive Spray Applications3 Credit Hours
Develops the concepts of spray drift causes and corrective actions to lessen the effects of pesticides in the environment. Concepts are based on factors related to dosage transfer and the competing physics of droplet delivery under a variety of atmospheric conditions. Mass balance procedures are emphasized to validate measures of spray drift. Sprayer equipment components and operation factors affecting spray drift are introduced as operator controlled measures to minimize spray drift. The role of pesticide label language is incorporated into course concepts. Best management practices are developed to ensure practical applications of course concepts are emphasized. The student will learn how to implement spray drift reduction practices as well as make objective conclusions about spray drift test data.
