Benefits of using a Spray Control System
by Chandak Agro Chandak Agro Equipments - Agricultural SprayerApplying pesticides and other agricultural chemicals (such as fertilizers and growth regulators) with an electrostatic low-volume spraying system provides the farmers with several benefits, including increased spray efficiency, increased spray efficacy, lower economic prices, greater safety and less damage to the environment. Some benefits of Agricultural Sprayer are:
Greater Spray Efficiency: Electrostatic low-volume sprayers (Knapsacks Power Sprayer) use less water and cover more area per hour than conventional dilute sprayers. This saves time and allows the farmers to treat a large number of farmland every day.
Greater Spray Efficacy: Electrostatic power sprayers actually charge
ultra-fine droplets of spray material with a negative electric charge. The charged
spray particles square measure drawn to the plant and to the target pest. This
is a more effective method than sprays that are applied with a large volume of
water but do not cover the entire plant surface.
Economic Savings: Battery Operated Sprayer saves time and provides better coverage, the overall cost per acre is less than with higher volume dilute sprayers. They use an average of 70% less fuel and 25% less pesticide per acre than non-electrostatic dilute sprayers, and application costs average 20% less per acre.
Development of new automated systems for agricultural machinery helps to improve competitiveness and sustainability in agriculture with a positive impact on the quality of yields. The main advantage deriving from the assisted driving in a self-propelled sprayer with a GPS enabled guidance the system associated with a control system of sectors of the boom, is overlap elimination (i.e. the interruption of the distribution of a crop protection product over areas already treated in a previous path, and the interruption of the distribution over areas that do not require any treatment (edges of the field, etc.). It must be emphasized that for operations that involve the use of external inputs such as fertilizers, pesticides, etc., the application of this modern technology allows the recording of Power Sprayer paths and product consumption and as a consequence provides an economic analysis of the sprayer operation.
