Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Variable-rate application significantly saved spray liquid compared with constant-rate application in potato fields.
- Intervention effect The sprayer reduced spray volume by 47% in weed detection experiments compared with constant-rate application.
- Intervention effect The sprayer reduced spray volume by 51% in diseased-plant detection experiments compared with constant-rate application.
- Intervention effect Spray volume of variable-rate and constant-rate application did not differ significantly in water-sensitive paper data under all field conditions.
- Recommendation The sprayer has potential to reduce the use of plant protection products in potato fields.
