Sprayer Training

I ran across this article on applicator training offered by BASF.  After last summer's day with Andrew Landers, I can understand how sprayer problems could lead to some of the resistance issues we have today.  It is essential that we get good coverage when we use crop protectants.  Too much or too little can both lead to problems.  Guidance systems and sprayer boom shutoffs seem to be more essential than ever.  Nozzle selection and maintenance is also a key. 

Also check out this article by Willie Vogt.  He advertised it on twitter this morning.  I had my first draft done last night.  Keep in mind that even "organic" growers use sprayers.
