Risk assessment of pesticide spray drift from citrus applications with air-blast sprayers in Spain

2012-12-01

Abstract excerpt

There have been no previous risk assessment studies on citrus pesticides in Spain. The aim of this work was to estimate the risks caused by worst-case drift scenarios of the principal pesticides used on the crop, assessing possible damage to the environment and human health. A field survey was carried out, characterizing the specific conditions of plant protection product applications to citrus crops in Spain. Six...
