should be used? ......ANSWER......Oil sensitive cards
Effective swath is: ......ANSWER......The span of the spray pattern that
contains enough pesticide to obtain the desired result/pest control
pg. 2
,3|Page
Overall swath is: ......ANSWER......The outermost range that spray
droplets within your pattern will reach but are not enough to result in
satisfactory pest control
In what type of outdoor conditions is it best to perform spray pattern
testing? ......ANSWER......Low wind conditions generally in the morning,
if winds are measurable, fly the aircraft INTO the wind to conduct spray
pattern testing.
What is the first thing you should do prior to conducting a spray
operation? ......ANSWER......Scout the target site from the air to identify
obstacles, terrain, and field layout
What should you specifically look for when scouting a field aerially prior
to an application? ......ANSWER......Breaks in cultivation or plant cover,

If there is an obstruction at the end of a field, how should it be
handled? ......ANSWER......One or two swath widths prior to reaching
the obstruction, cut off spray and pull up. After those passes are
complete, fly one or two parallel clean up passes to catch the swaths
you cut off early for.
