A physical evaluation of the spray pattern achieved by a Piper Pawnee when set up to spray a cereal herbicide has been extended to include an estimation of both the biological and economic results for United Kingdom conditions. The result shows the economic importance of choosing the correct flight lane separation and the need to use a correctly set‐up aircraft.
