CA 2147371

An apparatus and method for controlling vegetation, as well as insect infestation, as are typically encountered in agricultural environments is disclosed. The apparatus is characterized by its construction to include a high pressure pump (26) whereby liquid spray material may be applied to vegetation at a pressure from about 100 psi to as much as about 4,000 psi. The apparatus further includes a heater (34) whereby the liquid spray material may be heated to a temperature of from about 100 ° F to about 240°F before it is sprayed. The apparatus is constructed so that it can be attached to a standard tractor (10) for ease of use. The method of this invention is characterized by its utilization of a high pressure spray so that agricultural chemicals in amounts from virtually 0 % to about 50 % of their current recommended dose rates can be used with efficacy.

Appareil et méthode pour contrôler la végétation ainsi que l'infestation d'insectes normalement présents dans un milieu agricole. L'appareil est caractérisé par sa construction; il comprend notamment une pompe haute pression (26) permettant de pulvériser un liquide sur la végétation à une pression variant d'environ 100 livres par pouce carré à presque 4 000 livres par pouce carré. L'appareil comprend également un appareil de chauffage (34) permettant de chauffer la bouillie de pulvérisation à une température variant d'environ 100 oF à près de 240 oF avant la pulvérisation. L'appareil est construit de façon à pouvoir être raccordé à un tracteur standard (10) pour en faciliter l'utilisation. La méthode décrite se caractérise par la pulvérisation sous haute pression de produits chimiques agricoles. On peut utiliser avec efficacité des doses de pulvérisation se situant entre pratiquement 0 % et 50 % des taux actuellement recommandés.
