mathematical planning and optimization of experiments, scanning
of water-sensitive paper or
Kromekote® card, and systematic special "DepositScan" program to quickly estimate the
individual size,
distribution, total number and density of droplets or droplets. documents
(Own DSt 3202: 2017) were used [11, 12, 13].
In order to evaluate the effectiveness of high-dispersion
spraying technology, the
experimental spraying unit equipped with advanced correctors was tested in field conditions at
typical fields and optimal agrotechnical terms for the agrotechnical evaluation of defoliation
spraying machines.
An overview of the experimental spraying unit and the sprayer, the main elements of the
sprayer are given in Figure 1 [14, 15].

A working fluid dispersing device consisting of a central tube mounted along the center
of the housing with a discharge chamber and an outlet channel at the bottom,
a controlled conical
flow expander. The device is additionally equipped with a conical interchangeable turbulizer
with a large number of holes, the channels of which are made at an angle to the axis of symmetry
of the turbulizer. The outlet channel is made in the form of a ring hole, with the presence of a
disc holder, which is made in the form of a single block with a central tube and a conical flow
expander connected to the housing by a threaded connection.
The cultivated area must be flat, used in previous years, prepared in accordance with the
agreed agro-instructions
for the district, and the tested machine must meet the agro-technical
requirements. The agro-technical requirements of the spraying unit tested in terms of density of
plant distribution and species composition in the land area were selected accordingly.
The following test schemes were adopted when determining the performance of sprayers in the
processing area:
- number of repetitions (cuts in the direction of movement) - 3,
the intervals between them
should not exceed 30-40 m;
- the number of calculated cotton stalks in each sheath was selected depending on the coverage
width of the spraying device;
- it was ensured that the distance between the calculated stems in each crop was equal to or less
than the width of the crop type row spacing.
