Abstract

Some parameters of electrostatic charging of spray drops which influence the amount of spray deposit and drift are discussed. Methods of spray drop charging and spray current measurement have been outlined Spray deposit increased with charged sprays and simultaneously the drift was reduced. As a result environmental pollution from spray application was very less.
