    Thanks for that @simonlamacraft
    Interested parties can grab a copy as a free eBook or interactive PDF at https://www.sprayers101.com/airblast101

    There's a print-on-demand option too if you cover whatever shipping costs from Arizona.

    Yes, use of low volumes is a problem for fixed amount loss such as priming and cleaning. The whole exercise shows that we need to revise sprayer plumbing from the ground up.

    The lowest rate results in the highest wastage in percentage terms overall. The low rate being the only one where priming wastage is significant.... low rates a good case for recirculation? https://twitter.com/nozzle_guy/status/1351307375316148224

    Do you know how much pesticide is wasted during a boom spray application? We did some calculations and the answer surprised us.
