Although, Brazil being a agricultural Country, It don t have still, agricultural legislation to this project types and that came as help; to farmers, through the optimization in the defensives applications; to the environment, for the smallest environmental contamination, due the orientation in the search of correction of problems related to the machines; and to the humanity, in general, as a consequence of healthier foods, due to the minor use of defensives on the crop productions. Several brazilian research institutions, already gave your initial contribution accomplishing this work where was verified the importance of this projects.
