| So we have one on our farm first year running it in southeast North Carolina sandy coastal plains soils. We cover about 120 acres with our unit and it has been great so far just like everything else it’s had some learning curves with it. I notice one guy was talking about the front 2 drops that where breaking off yes I have had that issue and we resolved it by removing one small clamp that would allow the hose to flex more when turning off the 50 yard line. The machine definitely will not replace pivots but it will open the door for more farms to be irrigated that couldn’t be irrigated other wise. We are in a severe drought in North Carolina and the corn crop is going to be bad, but if we wouldn’t of had the rain system we just could of taken a bush hog to the 120acres but I bet that whole 120 will probably average around 180 there is a few acres that it can’t get because of hose length limitis. So with all this being said it’s not a pivot replacement machine but it can fill in the gaps and help farmers with those hard to irrigate pieces of the farm | |
