Abstract
ABSTRACT The productivity of the soybean crop (Glycine max) can be limited by several factors, including diseases. In the integrated management of diseases, one of the strategies used is chemical control. The aim of this experiment was to evaluate the influence of spray nozzle types on the chemical control of fungal diseases in soybean plants. The experimental design was randomised blocks, with six treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of control (without fungicide application on soybean plants) and application of fungicides with different spray nozzles: hollow cone jet, double flat jet, extended range flat jet, wide angle flat jet and air induction flat jet. The sprayer used was the backpack pressurised by carbon dioxide CO2. The experiment was installed in the Campos Gerais region (Paraná, Brazil); during three cropping seasons. The evaluated variables were incidence and severity, spray quality (covered area, droplet density, and relative amplitude) and yield components. It was concluded that the chemical control of fungal diseases in soybean plants reduced the proliferation of pathogens and losses in crop yield. There were significant changes in spraying quality in all analysed variables. There were no differences among the spray nozzle types regarding the analysis of incidence, severity and soybean yield components.
