The surface area of high-growing plants is calculated approximately by measuring the length of the rows and the average height of the foliage. The result is multiplied by the number of rows and then by two if both sides have to be treated. The surface area in hectares is obtained by dividing the number of square meters by 10,000. Example: A field 120 meters long and 30 meters wide has to be treated with a pesticide. Area: 120 m x 30 m = 3,600 m2 3,600 / 10,000 = 0.36 ha Determining quantity of active ingredient Refer to the instructions supplied with the active ingredient to determine: - Required quantity of active ingredient for 1 hectare (ha). - Concentration of active ingredient (mix ratio). English Multiply the required quantity of active ingredient for 1 hectare by the area determined in hectares. The result is the quantity of active ingredient required for the area to be treated. Example: According to the maker's instructions, 0.4 liters of active ingredient are required per hectare to obtain a concentration of 0.1%. Quantity of active ingredient: 0.4 (l/ha) x 0.36 (ha) = 0.144 l Determining quantity of solution The quantity of solution required is calculated as follows: TW K x 100 = TB TW = Quantity of active ingredient in l K = Concentration in % TW = Required quantity of solution in l Example: The calculated quantity of active ingredient is 0.144 liters. According to the maker's instructions, the concentration is 0.1%. Quantity of solution: 0.144 l x 100 = 144 l 0,1 % Determining walking speed Carry out a trial run with the machine fueled and the container filled with water.
