                     Effective Spraying Techniques for Pomegranate Farms with Tractor 
Sprayers
Pomegranate is a high-value fruit crop that requires proper care throughout its 
growing cycle. One of the most important activities in pomegranate farming is 
spraying pesticides, fungicides, and micronutrients to protect the fruit from 
pests and diseases. To ensure better results, Tractor Trailed and mounted
sprayers are commonly used, especially in large farms.
In this article, we will explain the most effective spraying techniques for
pomegranate orchards, and introduce you to the Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L – a 
powerful double-fan tractor sprayer designed to give excellent spray coverage
in dense orchards.
Why Spraying Is Important in Pomegranate Farming
If not controlled at the right time, these pests can damage the crop and reduce 
yield. Also, pomegranate trees have dense foliage and wide canopies, which 
makes it difficult for sprays to reach every part of the plant using manual or 
traditional methods.
That’s where tractor-operated sprayers like the Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L come 
into the picture. These machines help cover large areas quickly, save water and 
pesticides, and give uniform spray coverage even in the inner parts of the 
plant.
Why Choose Tractor Sprayers for Pomegranate Orchards?
Here are some key reasons:
1. High Efficiency: Tractor sprayers cover more area in less time, ideal for 
commercial farms.
2. Better Penetration: Powerful air-assisted fans help spray reach deep into 
dense foliage.
3. Uniform Coverage: Reduces the risk of under or over spraying.
4. Less Wastage: Optimizes the use of costly pesticides and water.
5. Labor Saving: Reduces dependency on manual labor.
Introducing Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L – Double Fan Sprayer
The Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L is specially designed for orchard crops like
pomegranate and grapes. It comes with a double axial fan system that creates 
a strong air blast, helping the spray reach both sides of the tree canopy in a 
single pass.
Key Features of Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L:
 Double Fan Design: Ensures maximum air output for complete spray 
coverage.
 600-liter tank: Ideal for medium to large orchards.
 Heavy-duty PTO drive: Efficiently powers the sprayer using tractor 
energy.
 Adjustable nozzles: Helps target the spray precisely to different crop 
heights.
 Strong, durable build: Suitable for rough field conditions.
This sprayer is designed for precision spraying, which is very important in 
pomegranate farms where the fruits grow in clusters and are easily affected by 
spray errors.
Effective Spraying Techniques Using Airotec Turbo 600L
Here are the best practices to follow when spraying pomegranate orchards 
using a tractor-mounted double-fan sprayer like the Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L:
1. Calibrate the Sprayer Before Use
Before starting, make sure to:
 Adjust Pressure & nozzle angles to suit tree height and canopy width.
 Set proper pressure and PTO speed.
 Use the right spray volume per tree (avoid over-wetting or dry spots).
Tip: Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L comes with easily adjustable nozzles and controls 
for fast calibration.
2. Spray During Ideal Weather Conditions
Spray during:
 Early morning or late evening (cool hours).
 Calm weather with no strong wind.
This ensures the spray doesn’t drift away and sticks properly to the plant 
surfaces.
3. Use Correct Spray Mixture
 Always follow manufacturer’s dosage for pesticides and nutrients.
 Maintain proper pH of water (between 6.5–7.0) for best results.
 Mix thoroughly before pouring into the sprayer tank.
The 600L tank of the Airotec Turbo allows enough spray mixture for a good 
number of trees in one go.
4. Cover Both Sides of the Canopy
With the double fan system of Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L, the spray reaches 
both sides of the pomegranate canopy in a single pass. Still, drive the tractor at 
a slow speed (2–3 km/h) to allow good coverage.
5. Regularly Clean and Maintain the Sprayer
To keep the machine in good condition:
 Flush the tank and pipelines after every use.
 Check nozzle blockages regularly.
 Grease moving parts.
 Inspect fan blades and gearbox.
Mitra Airotec Turbo 600L is built for easy maintenance, and spare parts are 
readily available through Mitra's strong dealer network.
