Quantification of spray drift from aerial applications of pesticide
… process influenced by many factors. Advances in aerial application technology and in our ability to measure drift, coupled with the adoption of new technologies for regulating pesticide application have necessitated further research in the pesticide application process. Experiments were conducted …

Chemical Treatment of Monodominant Cattail Stands In Semipermanent Wetlands: Duck, Invertebrate, and Vegetation Response
… comparisons were made between 2 application patterns treated in 1986. Breeding duck use, overwater nest densities and success, aquatic invertebrate abundance and diversity, and Vegetational changes were compared between the wetland categories. Glyphosate effectively controlled …

Evaluating post-fire woody mulch effects on soil and stream nitrogen
… of our study was to evaluate whether mulch application influenced turnover and loss of soil C and N in laboratory leaching trials and hillslope field settings, and then compared post-fire C and N in streams draining mulched and unmulched catchments. In the laboratory, we quantified C and N …

Evaluation of Topramezone for Use in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Production
… applied directly into water, causing the cost of application to be much higher due to the need for an aerial application. Therefore, topramezone, another HPPDinhibitor used in corn production was researched to evaluate the herbicide compatibility of mixtures containing topramezone, its efficacy on …

Assessing Spray Deposition and Weed Control Efficacy from Aerial and Ground Equipment in Managed Turfgrass Systems
… agricultural spray drone (ASD) use for herbicide application in managed turfgrass systems, which historically has precluded aerial application. Considering pesticide deposition accuracy is of utmost importance in managed turfgrass systems, a thorough examination of factors that influence ASD spray …
