With those models, the coverage produced in canopy was examined for certain conditions using of water-sensitive papers. For disease management applications with commercial pesticides against apple scab between April and June; the quality and efficiency of the applications were compared. Air-assisted orchard sprayer was more effective than standard sprayer for both years of biological trials (First year 4.72% and second year 5.32%). Even though the coverage results were close (the mean coverage achieved by air-assisted sprayer was 65.4% and standard sprayer was 63%), it has been seen that uniformity of coverage for air-assisted sprayer is better.}, number={4}
