In-The-Field Tank Mix Calculation

Marrone Bio Innovations, a leading developer of natural products for pest management, has developed and introduced a first-of-its-kind pesticide tank mix calculator application for use on the iPhone.

The innovative application, called Marrone Mobile Ag Tank Mix Calculator, is a free application for use on the iPhone and iPod touch that can quickly, easily and accurately help growers and applicators calculate proper ratios of up to any three pesticide products to be mixed together in the spray tank.

The application is easy to use. All that is needed is the capacity of the spray tank, the total area planned to treat and the proper rates of the products to be applied. The application calculates proper volumes for each product for each tank fill, the number of tank mixes needed to cover the area and the total amount of each product needed to cover the entire area.


"Efficacy, ease of use and innovation are always the driving forces in everything we do, and this mobile application is just another small example," says Pam Marrone, CEO and Founder, Marrone Bio Innovations. "The tank mix app is one of many practical tools and products we will introduce to help farmers, pest control advisors and their field crews be more efficient in managing weeds, pests and plant diseases."
