A pair of curved arms supporting a respective pair of curved shields. Each spray assembly (curved shields) carries a plurality of fan spray heads. The spray assembly consists of a pair of curved arms, fitted over them a pair of curved shields. Each respective curved shield forming at their lower end a spherical shaped chamber for storage of excess sprayed droplets for collection of excess over-spray or spray-drift of agricultural chemicals used for crop protection. The pair of curved shields are fitted with at least two said lower fan spray heads to the lower ends located within the pair of curved shields and at least one upper fan spray head located above the vine and tree canopy. The two opposing curved shields capture significant over-spray or spray-drift that generally takes place when spraying agricultural chemicals for crop protection.F e) Figure 1 - 1/15
