Abstract

With rising concerns about pesticide spray drift by aerial application, this study attempt to evaluate aerodynamic property and collection efficiency of spray drift according to the leaf area index (LAI) of crop for preventing undesirable pesticide contamination by the spray-drift tunnel experiment. The collection efficiency of the plant with ‘Low’ LAI was measured at 16.13% at a wind speed of 1 m·s^-1. As the wind speed increased to 2 m·s^-1, the collection efficiency of plant with the same LAI level increased 1.80 times higher to 29.06%. For the ‘Medium’ level LAI, the collection efficiency was 24.42% and 43.06% at wind speed of 1 m·s^-1 and 2 m·s^-1, respectively. For the ‘High’ level LAI, it also increased 1.24 times higher as the wind speed increased. The measured results indicated that the collection of spray droplets by leaves were increased with LAI and wind speed. This also implied that dense leaves would have more advantages for preventing the drift of airborne spray droplets. Aerodynamic properties also tended to increase as the LAI increased, and the regression analysis of quadric equation and power law equation showed high explanatory of 0.96－0.99.

본 연구에서는 항공살포에 의한 약액의 비산 저감을 위한 방법으로 차단 식물의 효과를 정량 평가하고자 하였다. 이에 따라 식물의 엽면적지수(LAI)에 따른 잎의 약액 부착 효율 및 공기 투과 저항성을 비산 챔버를 활용하여 측정하였다. LAI는 엽면적 밀도를 세 수준으로 구분하여 측정하였으며, 각 수준별 평균 LAI는 1.723±0.130, 2.810±0.412, 4.875±0.701로 산정되었다. 풍속 1m·s^-1에서 LAI가 ‘Low’ 수준일 때 부착 효율 16.13%로 측정되었고, 동일 LAI 수준에서 풍속이 2m·s^-1로 증가할 때 식물의 부착 효율은 29.06%로 측정되어 1.80배 증가한 것으로 나타났다. ‘Medium’ 수준에서는 풍속 조건에 따라 24.42%에서 43.06%로 1.76배 증가하였다. 또한 LAI가 ‘High’ 수준일 때 풍속의 변화에 따른 식물의 부착 효율은 1.24배 증가하는 것으로 나타나 풍속의 증가에 따라 식물의 약액 부착 효율도 함께 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 풍속 및 LAI에 따른 식물의 공기 투과 저항성 실험에서 LAI가 증가할수록 공기 투과 저항성 또한 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 2차 함수 및 거듭제곱 함수에 대한 회귀분석 결과 결정계수가 0.96－0.99 수준으로 높은 설명력을 보였다. 본 연구를 통해 농경지에 인접하게 식재된 식물이 항공살포 된 약액이 비산될 때 잎에 부착 및 지면 퇴적을 유도하여 비산 저감에 효과를 나타냄을 정량 평가하였다. 또한 LAI가 증가할수록 내부 저항이 증가하는 것을 실험적으로 규명하였다. 이를 기반으로 향후 잎의 형상 및 캐노피 등 식물 특성 변수를 추가 반영하여 비산 저감 효과를 기대할 수 있는 적정 작물을 선정하는 자료가 될 것으로 사료된다.
