How should you change pressure to reduce liquid droplet drift?

To effectively reduce liquid droplet drift, it is important to understand the relationship between pressure and droplet size when applying pesticides or any other liquids. Reducing pressure during the application process causes the liquid to form larger droplets. Larger droplets are less likely to be carried away by wind, as they fall more quickly to the ground due to their increased weight.

This principle is vital for ensuring that the pesticide effectively reaches the target area rather than being lost to the environment through drift. By managing droplet size with appropriate pressure adjustments, applicators can minimize the risk of overspray and ensure better control over where the chemicals land, ultimately leading to more efficient pest control and less environmental impact.
