What is Spray Deposit?

  1. The amount of pesticide absorbed by the soil

  2. The amount of pesticide remaining in the air

  3. The amount of pesticide remaining on a surface after drying

  4. The amount of pesticide sprayed per application

The correct answer is: The amount of pesticide remaining on a surface after drying

Spray deposit refers to the amount of pesticide that remains on a surface after it has dried. This is an important factor to consider when applying pesticides as it directly impacts the effectiveness of the treatment. It is vital for applicators to understand and manage spray deposits to ensure proper pest control and minimize any potential environmental impacts. Options A, B, and D are not correct in this context. The amount of pesticide absorbed by the soil (Option A) is referring to pesticide movement and could potentially lead to environmental contamination. The idea of the amount of pesticide remaining in the air (Option B) is more closely related to pesticide drift, which refers to the movement of pesticides away from the target area. The amount of pesticide sprayed per application (Option D) is related to the application rate and does not specifically measure the amount of pesticide that remains on a surface after drying.
