Spray fluid requirements in high volume spraying of rubber
Spray fluid requirements in high volume spraying of rubber - Placrosym VII, Coonoor, 1986. Journal of Plantation Crops, 16(Supplement):273-275
An experiment to determine the minimum spray volume required for adequate protection of mature rubber trees against abnormal leaf fall by spraying one per cent Bordeaux mixture revealed that satisfactory leaf retention could be ensured by using 3000 litres per hectare. The reduction in spray volume to 3000 litres from the current recommendation of 5000 litres helped in a saving of Rs. 560.00 per hectare
