Abstract
Samples of the spray pattern delivered by a tractormounted field sprayer were intercepted with 10 petri dishes divided between two heights in each of eight plots sprayed with 1.12 kg/ha of 4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid (picloram). The sprayer produced predictable residues on the intercept plates; no differences occurred between residues collected at ground level and 46 cm above the ground; and no differences occurred between replicate plots. Fractionation and analysis of specific plant parts, whose position relative to direction of spray and surrounding brush had been noted, revealed that the spray system delivered uniform coverage almost regardless of brush orientation.
