1. Economic Potential of IPMwise – a Generic Decision Support System for Integrated Weed Management in 4 CountriesReducing use and dependency on pesticides in Denmark has been driven by political action plans since the 1980ies, and a series of nationally funded accompanying R&D programs were completed in the period 1989-2006. One result of these programs was a decision support system (DSS) for integrated weed management. The 4th generation (2016) of the agro-biological models and IT-tools in this DSS, named IPMwise. The concept of IPMwise is to systematically exploit that: occurrence... P. Rydahl, O. Boejer, K. Torresen, J.M. Montull, A. Taberner, H. Bückmann, A. Verschwele |
2. Development and Evaluation of a Novel Variable-orifice Nozzle Flow and Droplet Size Control SystemSpray drift from crop production operations has been a critical concern across the U.S. as evidenced by the EPA’s efforts to mitigate pesticide drift. Recently, a novel spray control system was developed and evaluated which provided real-time control of both spray droplet size and flow rate. This was achieved via electromechanical control of a variable orifice nozzle along with a novel control system which incorporates real-time weather data to vary system pressure and orifice size and shape....
