ABSTRACT
The main purpose of the study was to compare the average and total degree of covering the sprayed plants with the foliar fertilizer with copper and the nanocopper. The measurement of covering degree was performed in "Aporo” sprayed chamber at a constant speed of (11.16 m·s-1) and at two pressures values 0.2 and 0.28 MPa for two nozzles standard: onestream XR110-02, and a dual-stream DF120-02. Tests were conducted at a constant speed for different pressures and two conventional nozzles. The samplers in the form of water sensitive paper were used. The degree of covering was calculated using a computer image analysis method. Statistical tests were carried out based on an analysis of the average group and homogeneity of variance (ANOVA). It was found that, when the nanocopper was applied, the average degree of covering and the total degree of covering were higher than while using the foliar fertilizer (Mikrovit) with copper, regardless of the pressure and the nozzle used in tests.
