Abstract

Compulsory inspection of sprayers currently in use can be a useful measure to achieve better control of Plant Protection Products (PPP). Results from European Union (EU) members with extensive experience on this subject, new proposals from EU members without it, and results from a thorough survey conducted across the European Union show this initiative as one of the most reasonable and profitable in the whole pesticide application process. The average PPP use-reduction potential resulting from regular control is estimated to range from 5% to 10%. Usually the monetary savings corresponding to such reductions exceed inspection and repair costs to the user.
