Which type of application involves a pesticide precisely applied to a specific area or site?

  1. Desiccant

  2. Directed Application

  3. Dormant Spray

  4. Dispersing Agent

The correct answer is: Directed Application

Desiccant may seem like a reasonable choice at first, but desiccants are intended to be applied to areas with plants in a non-selective manner, meaning it will affect any plant it comes into contact with. Dormant spray is typically applied in the winter when plants are dormant and is not a precise application. Dispersing agents are used to improve pesticide coverage, but do not involve precise application. Directed application is the most precise option as it involves targeting a specific area or site with the pesticide, minimizing any impact on surrounding plants.
