METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE JET INJECTION OF AGRICULTURAL LIQUIDS INTO THE SOIL ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved method and apparatus for the jet injection of agricultural liquids into the soil includes a series of jet nozzles, one for each plant row, spaced along the usual tool bar carried by a tractor which normally tows a nurse tank containing the liquid. A pump having an adjustable delivery rate is driven at a rate proportional to ground speed of the tractor, normally by the power take-off of the tractor, to deliver liquid from the nurse tank under sub- stantially constant high pressure. A timing distributor, also driven by the power take-off, connects the high pressure liquid, i.e., the pump output, successively to the nozzles so that the entire output of the pump is concentrated through one nozzle at a time, for a very brief interval, to inject a high velocity slug of liquid which will penetrate the soil to an agronomically satisfactory depth. The timing is such that one slug is injected for each nozzle during a predeter- mined distance of travel, e.g., 12 inches, to provide a series of equally spaced injections along each plant row.
