- What factors affect sprayer coverage? Coverage depends on the sprayer tank size, application rate (gallons per acre), and the type of chemical being applied.
- Can I adjust sprayer coverage by changing the application rate? Yes, adjusting the gallons per acre rate will change how many acres a full tank will cover. Lower application rates cover more acres per tank.
