Abstract
Modern aerial application of pesticide offers the advantages of timely site treatment, pesticide treatment of crop sites not readily accessible to ground equipment (for example, paddy rice), and lower fuel energy costs per treated acre on large tracts (for example, forest pest control efforts). The purpose of this publication is to provide pilots seeking licenses as aerial applicators with a reference book that enables successful preparation for the licensing exam that, in part, grants the privilege (and confers the responsibility) of using an aircraft to apply a pesticide.
