Subject: RE: Irrigation engine fuel efficiency contest


Central NE

CaseIH 4 cyl diesel burning 3.85 gph set at 1620rpm pumping 550gph, 180' lift,  bowls set a little deeper.  Pumping 5/8 of a mile to the pivot point.

Lately has been costing $55 -$60 diesel per acre for a season's irrigation compared to $16-$18 for electric wells on anytime control.
