dc.description.abstractIn-canopy sprinkler application in fully developed corn after tasseling is affected by nozzle spacing, nozzle height, row orientation with respect to center pivot travel, and nozzle type. Incorrect combinations can lead to poor in-canopy uniformity. In general, as nozzle spacing increased from 5 to 10 ft, in-canopy uniformity decreased. The 4 ft nozzle height was worse than the 2 and 7 ft nozzle heights in terms of in-canopy uniformity. Circular (parallel to sprinkler travel) rows almost always have better in-canopy uniformity than straight (perpendicular to sprinkler travel) rows. Spinner nozzles had better in-canopy uniformity than plate nozzles at the 2 and 7 ft heights.
