CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
1) Determine the recommended application rate/acre for NACHURS liquid fertilizer.
2) Calculate the distance required to drive in field for each nozzle to treat 1/128 acre.
(ounces collected from one nozzle equals gallons per acre)
FORMULA:
Distance to Drive (feet) / Row Width (inches)
3) Drive required distance and collect output from one nozzle (check row and deep placement separetely).
4) Adjust to obtain desired output
Example: Distance for each nozzle to spray 1/128 acre (one ounce collected per nozzle equals one gallon per acre)
