Which color is used to identify coarse droplets?

The color used to identify coarse droplets is yellow. This classification is part of a standardized system designed to help applicators easily recognize different droplet sizes during aerial pesticide applications. Coarse droplets are typically larger and are associated with lower drift potential and improved target coverage.

Using a color-coding system helps ensure that applicators can quickly assess and choose the appropriate nozzle and settings for their specific application needs while promoting safety and effectiveness in pesticide use. Understanding droplet size categories, including the importance of coarse droplets in reducing potential environmental impact and enhancing application efficiency, is essential for safe aerial application practices.
