Abstract: Provided herein are injection tools (100; 200; 300; 400; 500) for use in injection systems configured to penetrate a plant and distribute a liquid formulation to the plant. The injection tool includes a base (104; 204; 304; 404; 504) with one or more inlets (122; 222; 322; 422; 522) to receive liquid formulation, and a penetrating distribution body (102; 202; 302; 402; 502) connected to the base (104; 204; 304; 404; 504). The penetrating distribution body (102; 202; 302; 402; 502) includes a cutting element (110; 210; 310; 410; 510), and a plurality of distribution reservoirs (128; 228; 328; 428; 528) arranged in one or more rows that are positioned between the cutting element (110; 210; 310; 410; 510) and the base (104; 204; 304; 404; 504). Primary distribution channels (126; 226; 326; 426; 526) connect the one or more of the inlets (122; 222; 322; 422; 522) to the plurality of distribution reservoirs (128; 228; 328; 428; 528).

Abstract: Provided herein are tip setters and tip adapters for installing injection tools to plant parts, and methods of using such tip setters and tip adapters.

Abstract: A plant injection system includes an injection tool configured to penetrate a plant and distribute a liquid formulation to the plant. The injection tool includes a base having a plurality of inlet ports and a penetrating distribution body extending along a longitudinal body axis. The penetrating distribution body includes a penetrating element to penetrate the plant, and one or more distribution ports in communication with the inlet ports to distribute the liquid formulation to the plant. The injection tools is configured to precisely inject liquid formulation into the vascular system of the plant.
