Pesticide spray drift is the movement of pesticide dust or droplets through the -- air at the time of application or soon after -- to any site other than the area intended. Spray drift can affect people’s health, damage nearby crops, and pose a risk to non-target organisms. This webinar will focus on strategies for reducing pesticide spray drift.
