ABSTRACT:
A method for applying a liquid to a crop (8;13) according to the invention comprises of moving a body (2) containing the liquid over the crop (8;13) such that the body (2) comes at least partially into liquid transferring contact with the crop (8;13). Plants (13;8;23) not for treatment with the liquid may be shielded from the body (2). Another liquid may simultaneously be applied to the shielded plants.
The method is preferably performed using a device comprising a displaceable frame (1;21;31) having arranged thereon at least one liquid transfer body (2) connected to a container (16) for the liquid. The body (2) may have a flexible part (12), for instance a textile material. The device may further comprise means (7;17;27) for shielding plants (8;13;23) not for treatment with the liquid, and liquid distributing means debouching inside the shielding means and connected to a container for another liquid. The shielding means may further be fitted with adjustable cutting means (9).
