During the calibration of a sprayer, which factor is NOT typically measured?

During the calibration of a sprayer, consumer feedback is not typically measured because calibration focuses on quantifiable and measurable parameters that directly impact the efficiency and accuracy of herbicide application.

The width sprayed per nozzle, nozzle flow rate, and ground speed are all critical factors that need to be assessed to ensure that the sprayer is operating at optimal performance. The width sprayed per nozzle allows the applicator to calculate the coverage area of the herbicide, while the nozzle flow rate is essential for determining the amount of herbicide being delivered to the target area. Ground speed impacts the application rate and uniformity, as it must be synchronized with the flow rate to achieve precise application.

Thus, the emphasis during calibration is on machinery metrics and application parameters rather than feedback from end users, which is more subjective and unlikely to provide direct insights into the mechanical efficiency or calibration accuracy of the sprayer.
