Abstract

The Directive 2009/128/EC of the European Parliament establishes a framework for the implementation of National Action Plan referring to the sustainable use of pesticides in every member country. One of the areas covered by the Directive relates directly to the introduction of mandatory monitoring and inspection of pesticide application equipment. Considering that the Republic of Macedonia does not have a compulsory inspection, and as an EU candidate member country, is bound to harmonize its regulations, the basic aim of this research is to determine the current condition of the horizontal boom sprayers. The survey was conducted in a part of the Mediterranean region in the Republic of Macedonia, i.e. the municipality of Sveti Nikole and Stip. In this research 43 machines were visually and operationally checked. The results of this research will be a good basis for further research and implementation of mandatory inspection of these machines in the Republic of Macedonia.
