EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCHES REGARDING THE ACCURATE ASSESSMENT OF DISTRIBUTION OF SPRAYED SOLUTION OBTAINED BY A NEW TECHNICAL EQUIPMENT FOR FOLIAR FERTILIZATION IN AGRICULTURE
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
The improvement of the technologies of applying foliar fertilizers and their appropriate technical equipment represents a major concern of researchers, aiming to increase fertilization by performing unpolluted working processes that restore the environment and lead to the obtaining of health products. The paper presents some aspects regarding the experimental researches made within INMA Bucharest for obtaining a precise evaluation of distribution of sprayed solution by one new equipment for foliar fertilization in orchards. Results obtained have generated valid solutions for promoting high-performance equipment aimed to be used within the foliar fertilization technology in orchards. This equipment distributes the solution according to vegetal matter (leaves, branches) by means of an automated system of tree crown detection and a command mechanism of target spraying. Utilization of technical equipment will result in diminishing the environment pollution through an innovative technology by which an as small as possible quantity of ecological fertilizers is accurately applied.
