Are You Testing Your Water Before Mixing Your Spray?

Water quality plays a critical role in spray effectiveness, yet many farmers overlook it before mixing pesticides and fertilisers. In this video, we explain how water pH, hardness, and contamination levels can reduce chemical performance and lead to poor spray results in the field. Learn how unsuitable water conditions can cause chemical breakdown, reduce absorption efficiency, and increase spray failure risks. We also discuss the importance of routine water testing and simple adjustments that improve spray compatibility and crop protection outcomes. Discover how CYOL water quality insights and smart monitoring tools help farmers optimise spray performance and reduce unnecessary chemical losses. Key message: “Better water quality means better spray performance.”
