Zusammenfassung:A system for the application of material such as pesticides, herbicides, and the like, within a body of water. The system includes a conduit extending into the body of water and having a distal end for discharging material into the body of water. The conduit is coupled to an adjustable fixture for adjusting the length of the conduit, which in turn adjusts the depth at which the material is applied to the body of water. The conduit is also coupled to a material handling system for regulating the flow of material to the conduit and out the distal end. The system may be mounted on a vessel that includes electronic controls and guidance systems for controlling the application of material.
