Drift from boom sprayers4. Comparison between direct and indirect drift assessment means
Comparing the results of the three different drift assessment means to evaluate the potential of the indirect (PDPA laser and wind tunnel measurements) and direct (field drift measurements) drift assessment means.

Wind tunnel (DPRP) & field drift experiments (DRP)
Fairly good correlation between field drift DRP and wind tunnel DPRP values DPRPH (R²= 0.88) > DPRPV2(R²=0.81) > DPRPV1 (R²=0.66) Calculating the surface under the measured fallout deposit = best wind tunnel approach Investigating the effect of nozzle type & size, similar trends can be found from the DPRP and DRP results
Droplet size as well as droplet velocity characteristics are related with DRP & DPRP values V200: best indicator for the amount of sedimenting spray drift, explains about 90% of the total variation in DRP values Strong intercorrelation between droplet sizes and velocities → simple first-order linear regressions were the best choice to predict DRP
The indirect drift risk assessment method measuring V200 is at least as well suited to represent drift characteristics as the wind tunnel approach using fallout deposits and better suited than the wind tunnel approaches using airborne deposits
Based on DPRPH or V200, the DRP of a particular technique can be determined to come to a realistic estimate of field drift data (using the drift prediction equation)
