Sprayer Guide for Crop-Care and Fertilizer Application

Sprayer Guide for Crop-Care and Fertilizer Application

Choosing the right sprayer for crop-care liquids and fertilizer application matters because field size, pressure requirement, tank capacity and nozzle type all affect coverage.

Crop-care application requirements

• Coverage: Even coverage of target leaf surfaces.
• Droplet size: Fine mist for many leaf applications; always follow the product label.
• Pressure: Medium pressure for field crops and higher pressure for tall orchard canopy work.
• Timing: Early morning or evening in calm weather.
• Volume: Depends on crop, canopy and product label.

Fertilizer spray requirements

• Foliar fertilizer: Fine coverage for leaf contact.
• Compatibility: Check pump, seal and tank material before use.
• Cleaning: Flush the tank, hose and lance after use to protect seals and valves.

Which sprayer type fits?

Small farms and gardens

Battery sprayers are convenient for regular low-effort spraying and nursery work.

Medium fields

Petrol power sprayers help when higher daily coverage is required.

Orchards and tall crops

HTP sprayers support higher pressure and longer hose work where the crop height requires it.

Nozzle guidance

• Hollow cone nozzles are commonly used for fine crop-care coverage.
• Flat fan nozzles help with even band coverage.
• Always choose nozzles according to the liquid label and crop stage.

Safety note

Wear gloves, eye protection and mask when applying crop-care liquids. Follow the product label, avoid strong wind and observe the required waiting period before harvest.
