Abstract

The reduction of the emission of plant protection products to the environment is an important issue in the Netherlands. The Dutch government has formulated new goals on the reduction of pesticide use and emissions to the environment. Spray free and crop-free buffer zones are introduced, to minimize the risk of mainly spray drift. In the Netherlands, several methods have been developed to minimize drift in orchard spraying. Combinations of methods are entered in the certification process for the classification of low of spray techniques in the Netherlands, and are allowed for growers to be used in combination with smaller dimensioned crop-free buffer zones. This paper presents an overview of drift reducing measures in orchard spraying and officially accepted drift reducing methods in the Netherlands.
