โœฆ Synopsis

A simple model based on canopy structure is developed to explain the vertical distribution of clouds of droplets in a crop canopy. An attenuation coefficient derived from experiments in cotton was insensitive to droplet size in the range 40--200 ~zm and to the microclimate.

Based on a model of aerial dispersion of spray clouds released from aircraft, criteria are given for choosing droplet sizes and flying heights in practical crop-spraying situations. There are advantages in using sprays composed of small droplets; micrometeorological measurements over cotton suggest
