Aerial spraying of agricultural chemicals in Victoria is regulated by Agriculture Victoria, as well as other agencies like the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).
Ground-based spraying of agricultural chemical products is the most common method of application in Victoria.
Spray drift is the airborne movement of agricultural chemicals as droplets, particles or vapour.
Legislation requires certain notifications when applying agricultural chemicals by air or mister.
Applying the right amount of chemical at the right time is a major factor in ensuring successful control.
We acknowledge the traditional Aboriginal Owners of Country throughout Victoria, their ongoing connection to this land and we pay our respects to their culture and their Elders past, present and future.
