Abstract
A mobile agricultural machine has a valve controlled to apply liquid material to a field. An application assembly defines a conduit from the valve to a distal application tip. The application assembly includes a distal conduit section that has an inner diameter that is smaller than an inner diameter of a more proximal conduit section, that is closer to the valve, than the distal tip of the application assembly.
