Resumo

The droplet population produced during spraying influences the efficiency of pesticide application. It is possible to define a minimum number of droplets per unit area depending on the treatment and product to be applied. This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of the populations and the spectra of droplets produced during electrostatic and air-assisted spraying. Factors including types of nozzles, spray volume, type of spray and its influence on the percentage coverage and density of droplet population. The experiment was arranged in a 2 x 2 x 2 factorial [two types of nozzles (Jacto JA-4, hollow cone and Jacto AXI-110-04, flat fan nozzle tip), two spray volumes (200 L ha-1 and 400 L ha-1) and two sprayer types (air-assistance in the spraying sleeve boom and electrostatic spraying)] in a randomized block design with four replications. The electrostatic sprayer increased droplet density per cm2 of leaf.
