A tip for effective treatment in agriculture
Often, the phytosanitary treatments carried out to defend our crops do not give expected results, or at least lower than expected, not because inadequate products are used, but because some attention is omitted in the preparation and distribution of the solution.
Assuming that the spraying pump is calibrated as required by law, that the nozzles are appropriately chosen, and that therefore the wetting of the vegetation will be uniform, that the right amount of solution according to the vegetative mass of the crop, it will be necessary to pay attention in the preparation of the mixture.
You will need to know the PH and conductivity of the water used
In the case of water with neutral or alkaline Ph, it will be necessary to correct and bring the pH between 6 and 6.5. This is necessary because many pesticides in an alkaline environment degrade very quickly and lose effectiveness within a few hours.
Even in the case of hard water, i.e. with a high limescale content, it will be necessary to correct and reduce the conductivity. Carbonates dissolved in water bind to chemical molecules, modifying them and reducing their effectiveness.
These inconveniences can be easily overcome with the help of a corrector, CONTROL DMP.
It will be necessary to add to the water when the barrel is 9/10 full, before the pesticides, you can start with 50 cc per 100 liters and shake, if the water is tinged with a soft pink it means that the pH has dropped towards acidity and also a good amount of limestone has been neutralized, if the water does not change color, the dose of CONTROL DMP should be increased. At this point you can add the products, taking care to empty the liquid products directly into the tank and first, while the solid products must be dissolved separately in a little water and then poured into the barrel.
After pouring all the products, it will be necessary to add INEX A , and complete the filling always with the agitator running.
