    Foliar Urea at 45 l/ha

    Anybody with experience spraying 45 l/ha of urea? Looking at nozzle chart it would mean green 015s at speed. But what about blockage? Normally we use 91 l/ha with guardian air 02s which gives us 20 kg of Urea. Now in the followings of Joel Williams we want to go 10 kg but at the same...

    When to start putting N on wheat?

    I was always told that February nitrogen flattens crops. RB209 recommends nothing until the start of stem extension, and not before early April, unless it has low tiller numbers. Yet everybody else seems to start chucking it on now and their crops look strong and green where as mine look crap...

    Univoq or Revystar

    Who’s going to use Univoq this year? The only real substitute is Revystar but at £27 / ha more expensive it’s a difficult decision. We used Univoq for half a day last year and had to replace all of our DCV diaphragms, over winter we have found several damaged tank hoses and replaced the pump...

    Sprayer out of hibernation

    The sprayer had 10 litres antifreeze circulated all around before being shed stored for the past 4 months. Going to spray a tank of Roundup next week (2000 litres). Best practice is probably to give a rinse out but is it really necessary before using roundup?

    Spray technologies for field crops

    Spray nozzles

    What’s with the current trend of forward backward spray nozzles? I was always of the thinking that backwards spray just goes upwards and so therefore pointless! It seems that most of these only offer corse spray patterns to get around this. Is there are nozzle that people know of that does...

    Volume Washer

    I'm after some recommendations or advice on volume washers. It's for a 20/40 and fed from a 10,000litre tank. I've got quotes from about £500 up to just under £4k! How is everyone getting on with what they've got and what sort out litres per minute does a good job for you? Thanks

    Proximity sensor nozzles on sprayer.

    Evening all. I have an unusual question for all on here. There is probably no such thing but no harm in asking. We use a weed licker for getting rid of our pesky rushes. To me it's just an ok job. It will eventually kill them off over a good few weeks but not completely gone.(with good dosage...

    I’ve made a huge mistake… (new sprayer)

    A word of caution…. I sold my 2015 Amazone UX3200 sprayer a few weeks ago because it had done 70,000 acres and it was also tactically the right thing to do from a deprecation/tax point of view. i bought it new, and I can honestly say it never once let me down. Ever. I wanted a new Amazone...

    Group buys ?
