Evaluation of Soybean (Glycine max) Canopy Penetration with Several Nozzle Types and Pressures

Fungicides, when applied in the most effective way, can greatly improve the efficacy of the fungicide, reduce the risk of resistance, and potentially increase yields or preserve crops. When making fungicide applications, there are several things that must be considered. Most sprayers use hydraulic nozzles with pressure against an orifice. The applicator must consider which type of nozzle to use (both orifice size and nozzle type) as well as operating pressure.
