Specific scope

Included in the standard is a description of dose expression methods in three‐dimensional crops (aerial parts of plants in commercial orchards (e.g. pome fruit, stone fruit), hop gardens and vineyards, small fruit and cane fruit crops (e.g. blueberries, gooseberries, raspberries), taller, isolated fruit trees and other high‐growing crops such as fruiting vegetables both in the open field and under protected cultivation) and methods for converting between different dose expression terms.
