If its a half section one big windshield wipe pivot will cover the most acres and cost the least.


Not true. Two systems with corner machines will cover more acres than a giant half wiper. Since the wire, pads, and plumbing are already in place for two machines, the big wiper would probably cost more than two standard machines, and would not cover any more acres.

A standard length machine with a corner arm is probably about $120k these days.
