Abstract

Experts from relevant disciplines exchanged information on three important problems of pesticide spray technology. The four papers presented are Physical Parameters Relating to Pesticide Applications by N. B. Akesson and W. E. Yates; The Micrometeorology and Physics of Spray Particle Behavior by H. E. Cramer and D. G. Boyle; Impaction of Zectran Particles on Spruce Budnomi Larvae: A Field Experiment by J. W. Barry and Others; and Assessment of Insecticide Spray Processes by C. M. Himel. Summaries of the three workshop sessions are also included.

Keywords
