Here and There
Better coverage by air? You have to be messing with us. Surely nobody is that ignorant. If you haven't seen a 120 ft Hagie using ALL WHEEL STEER spray soybeans at 20 gallons per acre @ 70 psi then you wouldn't understand how utterly foolish you both sound.

According to university studies, I'm running over 1.3% using a 120 ft boom...arguably less with only 2 narrow tracks in the headlands using all wheel steer.

Thats .78 of one bushel in 60 bushel beans.

....You would trade running over 0.78 bushels for a plane putting down 3 gallons per acre lifting up early around obstacles and generally taking your money for a doctors office lollipop job??

-Sprayed a 300 acre field 2 days ago at soybean stage R3 (going with the rows I might add in 15 inch row soybeans) and you wouldn't know I was there today. I had 3 neighbors not even realize I had sprayed it until I pointed it out and they slowed down to look.
