AirMix®
Test Data

Summary of Research
With Drift Reduction Nozzles
James L. Griffin, Professor
Agronomy Department
LSU AgCenter
Roundup
UltraMax Efficacy as Affected by Nozzle Type and Spray Volume
Conclusion:
...Greenleaf AirMix® nozzles were equally effective in controlling
weeds when applied in either 3 or 8 GPA, and control was no less than
that obtained with the XR TeeJet® nozzle at 10 GPA
Overall conclusion:
...Roundup efficacy is not sacrificed when spray volume is reduced to
3 GPA with....Greenleaf AirMix® nozzles. However, when a standard
XR TeeJet® nozzle is used, spray volume can be reduced to a point
where weed control is sacrificed. Roundup application using XR TeeJet
nozzles at 3 GPA resulted in reduced control of both barnyard grass
and hemp sesbania. [Spray pressure - 30 psi (ground speed was varied
to match the GPA)]

AirMix® Test Data
Comparison Air
Injection Tips to Flat Fans in RR Cotton
Compare weed control
and crop tolerance with Roundup Ultramax applied with regular flat fan
nozzles to air induction tips...
No significant differences
were noted in weed control or crop safety with these tips.
