Aplicabilidade do cultivador químico - tipo hood sprayer - utilizando herbicida pós-emergentes na cultura da cana-de-açúcar.

Abstract

The present work was destined to evaluate a new type of sprayer, called Chemical Cultivator, which simultaneously promotes the application of different products in the rows and inter-rows of the crop. The equipment is fitted with hood sprayer for inter-rows and so it is possible to use non-selective herbicides. The evaluation included the practicability and viability of the equipment on sugar-cane crop. Phytotoxicity, stand, crop development, besides the efficacy for the main weeds were also evaluated. The results showed that the equipment is viable and practical for this type of application on sugar-cane crop.
