Centre county Pennsylvania, USA
We post spray our drilled beans and small grain with a ground sprayer that has 15" tire widths (on both sides) and a 90 foot spray boom. Our sprayer's wheel tracks are rolling down 2.5 feet of crop every 90 feet, or 2.78% of the crop. Center pivot that only rolls down 1.6% of the crop is a winner.
