Abstract: The invention states a sprayer boom and a field spraying device comprising a liquid container attached to a portable frame and with at least one sprayer boom. Said sprayer boom comprises a number of sprayer nozzles as well as a number of downward directed air nozzles supplied with air from a central fan. Said sprayer boom is telescopic and displays a number of air nozzles arranged on one or more pipe sections.

Abstract: A sprayer boom on a vehicle serves for by means of a number of liquid nozzles spraying a carriageway with a liquid fed under pressure to the nozzles from a storage container via a feed pipe. The nozzles are divided into sets with each their valve arrangement for selectively shutting off and opening for liquid supply to the respective set. The sprayer boom is suitable for tasks where the same amount of liquid per area unit must be sprayed across the area the vehicle passes irrespective of the speed of the vehicle, in as much as the nozzle sets can be regulated quickly and easily to optimum functioning at a given speed and a corresponding liquid flow.

Abstract: A method serving the purpose of spraying a crop with a plant protective liquid. The liquid is sent out in the shape of a number of clouds (10) of atomized liquid in the direction of the crop (11) via a number of liquid nozzles (9) placed on a sprayer boom (8) which, at the same time, is driven across the crop (11). The nozzles (9) are adjusted to put each atomized liquid cloud (10) into whirling movement. The whirls (10) created thereby are stiff and stable against drifting. The liquid whirls (10) can be supported by a curtain of air whirls (14). By means of the method and the sprayer boom according to the invention, a crop can be sprayed efficiently with a minimum use of crop spray.
