Introduced results of two injection devices of pesticides in agricultural sprayers. The main parameters tested: accuracy of the metering pump, duration to reach the good concentration at the boom sprayer, quality of the mixture. One ascertained good exactitude of dosage and inaccurate homogenization dosed of component with water. Settlement concentrations of solution followed after 50 seconds from beginnings of injection process
