Résumé

Pneumatic spray delivery (PSD)-based solid set canopy delivery systems (SSCDS) have demonstrated comparable spray deposition and reduced off-target drift compared with axial-fan airblast sprayers in high-density apple orchards. An important next step is to quantify whether PSD-based SSCDS can provide effective pest management. This study evaluated the biological efficacy of this fixed spray system variant and compared it with that of an axial-fan airblast sprayer. Partial field trials were conducted in a commercial apple orchard (cv. Jazz) trained in tall spindle architecture. Insecticides were applied at a rate of 935 L ha OBLR mortality for SSCDS, airblast sprayer and untreated control treatments after 24 h of larval exposure was 91%, 98% and 4%, respectively and increased to 98%, 100% and 19% after 48 h. First-instar CM leaf bioassay mortality was 100% for SSCDS and airblast sprayer treatment, and 13% for the untreated control at 24 h post exposure. Larval CM mortality on fruit was 100% for SSCDS and airblast sprayer treatments, and 33% on the untreated control. Insecticides applied using SSCDS and an airblast sprayer had comparable larval mortality in all three assays, significantly higher than the untreated controls. These results suggest that PSD-based SSCDS may provide a viable alternative to axial-fan airblast sprayers in high-density apple orchards. © 2022 The Authors.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Pneumatic spray delivery (PSD)-based solid set canopy delivery systems (SSCDS) have demonstrated comparable spray deposition and reduced off-target drift compared with axial-fan airblast sprayers in high-density apple orchards. An important next step is to quantify whether PSD-based SSCDS can provide effective pest management. This study evaluated the biological efficacy of this fixed spray system variant and compared it with that of an axial-fan airblast sprayer. Partial field trials were conducted in a commercial apple orchard (cv. Jazz) trained in tall spindle architecture. Insecticides were applied at a rate of 935 L ha
RESULTS RESULTS
OBLR mortality for SSCDS, airblast sprayer and untreated control treatments after 24 h of larval exposure was 91%, 98% and 4%, respectively and increased to 98%, 100% and 19% after 48 h. First-instar CM leaf bioassay mortality was 100% for SSCDS and airblast sprayer treatment, and 13% for the untreated control at 24 h post exposure. Larval CM mortality on fruit was 100% for SSCDS and airblast sprayer treatments, and 33% on the untreated control.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Insecticides applied using SSCDS and an airblast sprayer had comparable larval mortality in all three assays, significantly higher than the untreated controls. These results suggest that PSD-based SSCDS may provide a viable alternative to axial-fan airblast sprayers in high-density apple orchards. © 2022 The Authors.
