Hazelton, Kansas
Pk,

No, I didn't plan on crop dividers, but if we do it this year, it will be the first time with this sprayer (a 4720 with 360s).

In the past, we used the Rogator with floats, but that was in skip-row milo, so we had 60" rows to run in. I thought we had more damage from the low crop clearance of the Rogator than from wheel/tire damage.

So...'taint pretty on the milo, but soil moisture is like gold here. Keep telling yourself, "It's a 90-foot boom, and one-foot tires." :-)

A plane sounds like the plan, but milo is pretty hard to kill, in our experience. It's much easier to kill when it has moisture, but you don't want a halfway job. BTDT.

Regards.
