Changing my sprayer this year, I want to go to min 30m but really 36m. I am using a mixture of liquid fert, gran urea, AN, TSP and Mop. Is anyone managing to spread to 36m ok or is it just too far ?
Why does MOP/TSP spread better? look similar granular size and weight?I wouldn't want to apply solid N at 36m but as above we have done plenty of MOP / TSP at that width without issue and tray tested well
I've really noticed a few neighbours farms this year that have gone 36m and still use solid N - striping was quite clear and they wont have been using cheap product i'm sure

Solid N at 36m means branded UK product - Yara or Growhow only. I don't know how TSP & MOP is at 36m but I'm at 30m. MOP & Kieserite tray tested ok through our Amazone.

Hi Brisel are you spreading An and Urea at 30m ?
If you are putting on TSP or MOP wouldn't you be doing that early on before the crop gets up? Couldn't you spread at 18m more accurately and make a pass between the tramlines using GPS? I can see why liquid is so much more appealing when you get over 24m but there's always a need for a spreader for the other stuff.
Because it is not so easy to see when it doesn't spread properly!Why does MOP/TSP spread better? look similar granular size and weight?
There is only one the trailer Kuhn - £110,000+ on the farm?Pneumatic...?

Seems a lot for a trailer and some pipes.

What is there in it that could cost £110,000.
Apparently the dealer only gets an 'introduction' fee not commission so the one I spoke to was not too enthusiastic about them.
