UCR
Unit Canopy Row (UCR) is a calibration method based on
the height and width of the canopy and the row length
rather than area. UCR takes into account the three
dimensions of a fruit tree or vine.
UCR is defined as a unit of
canopy measuring 1
metre wide x 1 metre
high x 100 metre long.
Future labelling of
pesticides may include rate/
UCR.
The Controller can be set up for mistblower to handle UCR. This is done
from the extended menu. See “Extended menu” or contact your HARDI
service centre if the Controller is not set up for UCR.
Once done, the 3
rd
line of the screen will show crop width and height and
the application unit will be UCR.
The crop width and height can be changed during the season or on the go
with the arrow keys to match the canopy size.
