Abstract
Herbicides application success depends, besides product correct choice, the observation of environmental conditions and application quality. The work aimed to quantify the effects of surfactant addition in spraying solution, in natural and artificial targets, associated to different nozzle boom angles in relation to application offset, by using distinct evaluation methods. Two experiments were conducted at NuPAM-FCA/UNESP, Botucatu County, São Paulo State, constituted by ten treatments, in factorial scheme 2×5, corresponding to two spraying solutions conditions (absence or presence of Aterbane BR™ (0.25% v/v) adjuvant) and five angles of spray nozzle in relation to offset application (-30°,-15°,90°,+15°and +30°). In Ipomea grandifolia leaves it was evaluated the distribution and drops deposition of a tracer solution by using scores visual and spectrophotometer process. In hydro sensible papers, it was evaluated volumetric medium diameter (VMD), density (cm2) and drops medium diameter, covered area (%) and application fees (L ha-1), through e-Sprinkle™ software. Aterbane BR™ (0.25% v/v) presence or absence, associated or no, to spray nozzles offset didn't provide significant differences in I. grandifolia spray deposition. The use of artificial targets presented applicative technical limitations in relation to the use of natural ones as study matrix. Deposit and distribution variables esteem distinct behaviors, independent of target nature.
