Sprayer Calibration with Handheld Sprayer Systems for Orchard Crops

This presentation provides a step-by-step guide to calibrating handheld sprayer systems used to apply pesticides to orchard crops in Hawaii. Sprayer calibration is necessary for understanding water use per acre, which in turn helps applicators determine how much pesticide product to add per gallon or tankful of water. The following UH-CTAHR publication titled "Sprayer Calibration with Handheld Sprayer Systems for Orchard Crops" and Excel workbook titled "“Sprayer Calibration for Orchard Crops and Pesticide Calculations” are referred to by this presentation. Use of the workbook helps to eliminate hand calculations and potential error.
