Small utility type sprayer

I have a good few miles of permanent electric fencing and yards etc that need spraying regularly.
Currently use a backpack sprayer or a long pipe and lance worked off the old Allman tractor sprayer.

Considering getting a small ATV type one with a electric pump that could be in back of the pickup and hold the lance out the window while driving round the fence lines, or dad reckons to have the tank on a pallet and drive round with the loadall doing the same. No quad or buggy here.


Old man thinks he could keep the yard done with a mini boom on the front of the loadall as well, we have lots of awkward banks round the yard that can't be driven along so he might be onto something.

Any recommendations on brand or ones to avoid? They all look much the same.
Just a basic tank, pump on some sort of pallet arrangement would do.
Thanks for any input.
