Pesticide Application Rate Calculator

✅ 1. Field Size & Crop Type Selection

• Enter your field size (acres or hectares).
• Choose crop type (corn, wheat, soybeans, vegetables, etc.).
• Auto-fills recommended pesticide application rates for different crops.

✅ 2. Pesticide Type & Active Ingredient Selection

• Select pesticide type (Herbicide, Insecticide, Fungicide, Miticide).
• Choose the active ingredient concentration (e.g., Glyphosate 41%, Bifenthrin 7.9%).
• Automatically suggests recommended rates per acre based on product labels.

✅ 3. Spray Volume Calculation (Gallons per Acre – GPA)

• Enter your spray method (ground sprayer, aerial, or drip irrigation).
• Input spray rate per acre (GPA) to get the total spray volume needed.

✅ 4. Tank Mix Calculation (Dilution & Mixing Guide)

• Enter tank capacity (gallons or liters).
• Input number of tanks needed for field size.
• Displays exact pesticide concentrate required per tank for accurate mixing.

✅ 5. Pest Severity Adjustments

• Adjust pesticide rate based on low, medium, or high pest infestation levels.
• Example: Medium severity increases the application rate by 10%, and high severity increases it by 20%.

✅ 6. Drift & Buffer Zone Estimation

• Calculates minimum buffer zone to prevent pesticide drift.
• Adjusts based on wind speed and droplet size for better safety.

✅ 7. Nozzle & Sprayer Recommendations

• Suggests the best nozzle type for even coverage.
• Provides sprayer pressure (PSI) recommendations based on your selected method.

✅ 8. Cost Estimator for Pesticide Application

• Enter pesticide price per gallon to calculate the total cost of application.
• Helps in budgeting and cost efficiency for large-scale farming.
