Passive drift samplers were mounted on a frame, attached to the sprayer, 2 m behind the nozzles of different strawberry spraying systems.The spraying systems were operated at a common tractor speed of 7.2 km/h.At calm wind conditions this forward speed corresponded to a wind speed of approximately 2 m/s causing potential drift from the nozzles.Drift samplers, made of cotton and acryl thread of 2 mm diameter and 3 m long, were mounted horizontally on a frame at different heights up to 2.0 m above the ground.Measurements compared at different growth stages in May (1) and August (2) demonstrated that drift was reduced by 75% due to the increased filter effect of the leaf density in August.The drift from a tunnel sprayer was 10 and 13% of a reference sprayer when using an end-curtain and 55% and 37% without any end-curtain at growth stages 1 and 2, respectively.At growth stage 1, using 80 015 nozzles at 200 mm from the plants gave a significant increase in drift compared with the similar nozzles at 100 mm from the plants.At growth stage 2 the reference sprayer at 1.0 MPa gave a significantly higher drift than at 0.5 MPa.Using air injection nozzles (ID nozzles) reduced the drift significantly.
