As above , just wondered if many people are modifying sprayers to use IPC s via closed transfer system . Fronteir are subsidizing the kit for a few weeks , not sure about the other " big" firms ( Agrii, Procam, Hutchinson etc) . I am fitting it to my Bateman and got the CT kit to move around from farm to farm as I m a contractor . Rough figure is £ 375 for the CT gauge/ ipc fittings/ pipe( normal price is £700 ish) and then depending on your sprayer , £250 ish for valves and sealed male/ female fittings.
Later this year , looks like the firms will start to do 1-20 ltr cans to use this kit but at moment it is 200 - 1000ltr ipc and limited products , round up and a lot of trace element stuff plus a few others.

I have one in the box ready to fit along with a Hypro Easy Connect which is on order as I think they are the way forward in the long run it just when you jump with what technology but it does look to have stabilised, also when my operator requested it I couldn't really say no as these chemicals are not nice and we should look after our operators.
