N2 - Fluorescent tracers are often used for spray drift and deposition measurements because of their high sensitivity, allowing to measure very low spray deposits. A negative characteristic of these tracers is degradation by sunlight and storage. Recovery rates of the tracer Acid Yellow 250 were measured after exposure to sunlight, application to filter cloth collectors and after storage. After 30 minutes of sunlight exposure the recovery rate was 91%. The filter cloth collectors showed a very high recovery rate of 99.8%. After six weeks of storage in a dark and cooled storage the recovery rate was 90%. These results are very similar compared to the well-known tracer Brilliant Sulpho Flavine.
