Pesticide Application Technology Laboratory
The Pesticide Application Technology Laboratory is located at the West Central Research and Extension Center in North Platte and builds on over four decades of pesticide application research. The mission of the lab is to better understand how to control weeds, diseases and insects in agricultural production systems most effectively. The research of the lab is geared toward improving application practices which will maximize pesticide efficacy through the use of nozzle selection, spray solution, pressure and sprayer modifications. Concurrently, the lab is also focused on finding application practices which will minimize pesticide drift and environmental contamination. For more information please visit our website: pat.unl.edu
