Key Points

This research aims to explore the role of functional adjuvants in stabilizing and improving pesticide efficacy under changing agricultural conditions.
Developed high wetting and drone application adjuvants
Assessed surface tension control mechanisms
Evaluated wetting spread on hydrophobic plant surfaces
Measured penetration improvement against pathogens and pests
High wetting adjuvants showed excellent spreading on hydrophobic surfaces
Improved penetration of pesticides into pathogens and pests
Drone adjuvants achieved evaporation suppression and increased coverage
Demonstrated high efficacy in low-water and high-concentration pesticide applications

Research demonstrates enhanced pesticide effectiveness in agriculture using functional adjuvants, indicating a sustainable approach.
