Environmental awareness and an eye on the bottom line. For professional chemical applicators, today's business demands both. Your golf course counts on you to provide a precise treatment - every time. Your pocketbook demands that you make smart business decisions. Proper calibration of equipment can help to deliver the results you and your course needs.
Calibration is the process of measuring and adjusting the amount of product applied to an area.
More simply, calibration means precision. If your equipment is properly calibrated, you can be confident you're applying the exact amount of product called for on the label. If you fail to calibrate your equipment on a regular basis, you're likely to apply too much or too little product. Over-application of product can result in damage to the turf, as well as increase the risk of water contamination and human exposure. In contrast, under-application may fail to provide the adequate control of weed, insect and disease problems.
