Did you use TurboDrop® differently from the way you have used other nozzles? "I sprayed in winds much higher than previously was safe; sprayed at much higher pressure."

What other drift reduction products (nozzles, shields, adjuvants) have you tried? "Nozzles."

Were there obvious differences? "Yes. Drift reduction."

Was the coverage better/worse/same? "Same to better."

Was chemical efficacy better/worse/same? "Same to better."

What advantages did TurboDrop® offer in the following categories?
DRIFT: "With the combination of TurboDrop® 01 (orange) and Turbo TeeJet® 11003 (blue), drift is virtually eliminated."
SPRAYER SPEED: "Ran higher pressures, therefore higher speeds."
WIND SPEED: "Was able to operate in significantly higher winds."
WATER USAGE: "No change from previous practice."
CHEMICAL USAGE: "No change from previous pratice."
VARIABLE APPLICATION RATES W/SINGLE NOZZLE: "Ran 3-11 gallons with the same combo."
COVERAGE: "Excellent."
PENETRATION: "Not a factor on this type of weed control."
Nozzle Plugging: "Zero."
RUN-OFF: "Not a factor at these low water rates."

Will the TurboDrop® nozzle pay for itself?
(Is this technology cost effective?)
"Yes. Eliminates wind screen need. Can spray in greater winds. More time in field."

Additional Comments:"This combo should not be continuously operated under 40psi as droplets are/may be too large for good coverage. I would say 50+psi is better. A RE VOLUTION IN SPRAYING."
