We spend lots of time assessing how effective our spray treatments are. But how often do you consider how efficient your spray program is? Does every application achieve maximum coverage and ensure product viability? The kinds of products you're using to apply agricultural inputs make a big difference. From low volume mists (atomizers, foggers) to hydraulic sprayers. What is best in what situation? What about when applying biopesticides which are living organisms? And what about nematodes? In this #CropCareConvos episode, Bobby Shearer gets into all of that and more with Charlie McKenzie of #LeadersTalkCrops and their guest, Mark Ledebuhr of Application Insights LLC. What is the most costly misconception growers have about fluid delivery systems? Mark says it's the "spray and pray" mentality. We agree! You must find out what you don't know. Assess your coverage with water-sensing papers. R&amp;D doesn't have to be complicated. How much of your spray is wasted? Biofungicides for roots: use low-pressure watering wands. Nematodes: remove all filters, use a large spray nozzle and low-pressure. Beauveria works well in hydraulic sprayers. Botanigard and Cease: hydraulic sprayers or cold foggers Bacillus subtlis: consider the K-22 BIOpulse fogger Get as good as you can with the equipment you have before trying to upgrade, but never lose the "constant improvement" mindset. So many insightful gems in this podcast!  Be sure to check out Mark's book at www.sprayer101.com/airblast101 Until next time, #StartCleanStayClean w/ #CropWalk #IPM
