Lowering spray height influences drift by changing which parameter?

Lowering spray height influences drift by changing which parameter?

• A. Distance to Target
• B. Wind Speed
• C. Temperature
• D. Humidity

Answer: (A)

Drift depends largely on how far the spray droplets have to travel before reaching the target. Lowering the spray height reduces that distance, so droplets spend less time in the moving air and are less likely to be carried off-target by wind. Environmental factors like wind speed, temperature, and humidity still influence drift, but changing the height mainly alters the distance to the target. So the parameter influenced by lowering height is the distance to the target.
