Spraywise Application Stewardship
Course
This accredited course consolidates information from the Handbook and our workshops to provide participants with an exceptional working knowledge on best practice spray application.
Spraywise Decisions
Our online spray application decision tool provides farmers with localised forecast information via point location with GPS coordinates. It generates two, fi ve, seven and 14 day forecast meteograms and is automatically updated every three hours. Accuracy is to within one square kilometre. Find it at www spraywisedecisions.com.au
Spraywise Summer Spraying Guides
These handy A3 reference charts detail suggested mixes and product rates. It also addresses application considerations for various conditions. It is an easy to read reference to help manage specifi c problem weeds.
Spraywise Nozzle and Adjuvants
DVD
This comprehensive DVD demonstrates the technical and practical benefi ts gained through correct nozzle selection for your specifi c application and the use of adjuvants as appropriate in your spraying activities.
Spraywise Nozzle Chart
Popular nozzles have been collated into one A3 poster, highlighting the various spray qualities produced with a range of pressures. An ideal reference to help select the right nozzle for the job. It also includes tips for water management, drift reduction and tank mixing order.
Spraywise Application Guide
At last! This easy to read A3 poster details recommended spray qualities and water rates for the complete range of Nufarm products. Resulting from many years of research and development by Nufarm, this reference is a must for all spray applicators.
Spraywise Calculator
Anyone using twin-line technology for their ground application equipment will fi nd the Spray Quality Calculator extremely useful. The calculator makes light work of determining the correct nozzle combination for various speed and pressure scenarios.
Spraywise WaterCheck
