Suggestions for Automatic Forest Fertilisation by a Wind-Operated System
Plant Pathology Research Division, Department of Agriculture for Northern Ireland Newforge Lane, Belfast BT9 5PX
A system is suggested whereby a large area may be automatically fertilised by regular small applications. There is also the possibility of distributing insecticides or fungicides at minimal cost. The system consists of a high steel mast, a rotary atomiser, a wind driven generator, storage tanks and various control devices.
