drift_data_JKIR Documentation

Deposition from spray drift expressed as percent of the applied dose as published by the JKI

Description

Deposition from spray drift expressed as percent of the applied dose as published by the German Julius-Kühn Institute (JKI).

Usage

drift_data_JKI

Format

A list currently containing matrices with spray drift percentage data for field crops (Ackerbau), and Pome/stone fruit, early and late (Obstbau frueh, spaet).

Details

The data were extracted from the spreadsheet cited below using the R code given in the file data_generation/drift_data_JKI.R installed with this package. The file itself is not included in the package, as its licence is not clear.

Additional spray drift values were taken from the publication by Rautmann et al. (2001). Specifically, these are the values for early vines, and the values for a 3 m buffer which are incomplete in the spreadsheet.

Note that for vegetables, ornamentals and small fruit, the values for field crops are used for crops < 50 cm, and the vales for late vines are used for crops > 50 cm. In the JKI spreadsheet, it is indicated that these values are used for spray applications with handheld/knapsack equipment (tragbare Spritz- und Sprühgerate).

Values for non-professional use listed in the JKI spreadsheet were not included.
