Aircraft in Agriculture: A Selected List of References

Nellie G. Larson

No 336022, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: This bibliography contains selected references on agricultural aviation published during 1945-57. It covers the operational and economic aspects of aircraft use in spraying, dusting, seeding, and fertilizing. Many of the references deal with insect control. The compiler sought to include all pertinent citations to agricultural aircraft, their equipment and accessories, and uses, and to techniques and methods of dispersal of chemicals, seeds, and fertilizers. Many uses of aircraft have been omitted, specifically the use of aircraft in fire control, in aerial surveying and mapping, and for personal and cargo transport. Material dealing only with evaluation of entomological results of spraying or dusting has also been omitted.
