ASPECTS 147: International Advances in Pesticide Application

Original price was: £40.00.Current price is: £20.00.

Description

The 2022 International Advances in Pesticide Application, is the 17th biennial IAPA Conference.
Papers have been received from across the world, providing delegates with a full programme of
Platform and Poster sessions. As well as the high level technical content, the conference offers
a unique opportunity for engineers, scientists, regulators and end users to discuss all aspects of
pesticide application, and best practices for optimising performance, while minimising the impact
on the environment, bystanders, and operators.

A key challenge for the industry is to get the manufacturers of pesticides application equipment
and regulators more involved with improved methods of pesticide application, pesticide handling
and disposal, and get these improvements established as the default recommendation for products,
equipment, and application practices, bringing benefits to the environment, bystanders and
productivity.

The conference caters for all aspects of pesticide application from small holdings to broad scale
farming, from traditional pesticides to bio-pesticides. The papers presented at the conference add to
the documented global knowledge and experience that leads to safer and more effective application
of crop protection products.
