In this episode we’re talking about technology that advises growers on when and how to spray in order to improve spray efficacy and reduce the risk of spray drift.  

We speak to Food Agility CRC chief scientist David Lamb, who explains why hazardous inversions can cause spray particles to travel tens of kilometres.  

We’re also joined by INCYT founder Simon Blyth who talks about their latest spray advisory technology, Maverick. He tells us how the technology is helping growers plan more effective spraying programs, while reducing risk, taking inspiration from its Top Gun namesake.  

And we speak to Stop Off-Target Spraying (SOS NSW) coordinator Annette McCaffery, who tells us about the importance of using tools that offer real-time local weather data to help inform spraying decisions.
