Ohio | We are considering upgrading to a better 'pull type' sprayer. (Besides boom length and tank capacity) what are the items/components that make a pull sprayer more functional/easier for operator?
• Chemical Induction tank
• Hydraulic boom fold
• Hydraulic boom raise and lower
• Raven Rate Controller
• Section / nozzle shut-off control
The plan is for the spraying tractor to have Trimble GPS and Autosteer added in Spring 2016. Currently the tractors do not have gps.
Looking at 60' to 90' boom (not 120'). 1000 to 1200 tank.
I'm not the normal Sprayer/Operator therefore I do not have a lot of practical experience. In the rare occasions I do spray, I'm not confident in my end result.
400 acrs farm. I don't want a self propelled sprayer. I want leverage the future gps/autosteer investment in the tractor(s) and not have another piece of equipment (engine, drivetrain, storage space)
