Joe Sgambelloni, a chestnut grower from Myrtleford, VIC, was facing a common challenge: how to effectively spray trees that tower up to 13 metres tall. His old air-blast sprayer just wasn’t cutting it.
Our old sprayer was only reaching about 80% of the tree. The Cropliner gets right to the top—10 out of 10.
— Joe Sgambelloni, Myrtleford, VIC
With 70 acres of chestnuts and a canopy full of fruit at the top, Joe needed a sprayer with serious reach. After a chat with Brendan from McGregor Machinery, he was introduced to the Croplands Territory Manager Brett Kay and the Cropliner XL. A demo sealed the deal.
“It’s just a great unit. Well-built, powerful fan, and it does exactly what we need it to do,” he said.
Joe also praised the customer service from both McGregor Machinery and Croplands, with Brett helping Joe fine-tune the machine with a flow meter and jet adjustments to suit varying spray volumes.
“Brett was fantastic. He came out, brought different jets, adjusted the machine—it was great service.”
With years of experience and a strong relationship with his local dealer, Joe says he wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Croplands to other growers with tall trees.
“If anyone’s after a sprayer for tall trees, I’d highly recommend using something from Croplands. I wouldn’t go past them,” he said.
Michael Sinclair, a sixth-generation farmer from Temora, NSW, knows a thing or two about reliability. With over 2,800 hectares of mixed cropping and livestock to manage, he doesn’t have time for equipment that doesn’t perform.
That’s why Michael recently purchased his fourth Croplands Pegasus sprayer—a decision rooted in years of experience and trust.
I just know the product. I know its weaknesses and its strengths—and the Pegasus range is reliable.
— Michael Sinclair, Temora, NSW
Michael’s operation includes wheat, canola, barley, and an Aussie White livestock enterprise. With a small but efficient team, simplicity and service are key.
“It’s easy to use, and if I do bend something, I can fix it myself. It’s still a steel boom, and that makes a difference,” he said.
Beyond the machine itself, Michael values the local support network, including his long-standing relationship with Croplands rep David Hamilton.
“David’s just half an hour down the road. His product knowledge is extensive, and he’s always there when we need help,” he said.
With a strong heritage in farming and a practical approach to technology, Michael isn’t chasing the latest trends—he’s sticking with what works.
Ian Ladner shared his experience with the WEED-IT Retrofit Kit, highlighting its benefits in conserving moisture and reducing chemical usage.
At Croplands, we are committed to providing innovative solutions that enhance farming efficiency and sustainability. Recently, we worked with Ian Ladner from Wolonga Farming Co. Their land is in Branchview, located on the Darling Downs, 87km west of Toowoomba in Queensland. Ian and his family have been farming this land for more than 95 years, and they recently adopted our WEED-IT Retrofit Kit to improve their operations.
Wolonga Farming Co, operated by Ian, David and Harry Ladner, spans 1700 hectares. The farm grows a variety of crops, including cotton, wheat, sorghum, chickpea, mung bean, and soybean. The Ladners have integrated the Hayes 3-point Linkage sprayer with a 24m WEED-IT Retrofit Kit sensor spray system, supplied by Croplands and the Toowoomba Spray Shop.
Ian Ladner shared his experience with the WEED-IT Retrofit Kit, highlighting its benefits in conserving moisture and reducing chemical usage. The sensor technology in the sprayer has significantly improved weed control by accurately identifying and targeting weeds, resulting in substantial savings on chemicals.
The WEED-IT Retrofit Kit is incredibly easy to attach and couple to our tractor. The technology is user-friendly, and the results have been excellent. It’s made our operations much more efficient.

He emphasised the ease of use and the positive impact on their farming operations.
Croplands is proud to support farmers in their journey towards more sustainable and productive farming practices.
Two Australian Companies Partner to Bring an Autonomous Optical Spot Spraying Solution to the Australian Broadacre Market
Croplands, Nufarm’s emerging solutions spray equipment platform, has partnered with SwarmFarm, a specialist in autonomous robots to launch a fully integrated optical spot spraying solution for the Australian broadacre market.
Croplands has a strong pedigree in engineering quality, large scale broadacre spraying solutions suited to the harsh Australian environment. The Pinto trailed sprayer range represents Croplands design philosophy: robust design and generous dimensions resulting in unmatched durability, simplicity and functionality. Croplands has engineered a Robot Ready Pinto with suspended gooseneck attachment, 3000L Tank & 18m or 24m booms which seamlessly integrates with Swarm Farm’s autonomous SwarmBot. The SwarmBot is an articulated autonomous tool carrier on 3m centres ideally suited to broadacre applications.
Lachlan Coom, WEED-IT Product Lead, Croplands, says “We have been testing our Robot Ready Pinto in numerous soil types and terrains across Queensland, including the heavy black soils on the Darling Downs.”
Apart from the excellent maneuverability of the gooseneck design, we were also impressed by the boom’s stability with the auto height control exceeding expectations.
Lachlan Coom, WEED-IT Product Lead, Croplands
“We were also very happy that the integration went smoothly between the sprayer and robot when setting it up for it’s initial test run. SwarmFarm really know their stuff.” Says Lachlan.
The Robot Ready Pinto 3000 boasts a 24m or 18m fully hydraulic steel boom, 3m axle with rubber block suspension, the newly designed gooseneck attachment is also fitted with a unique suspension system. An additional poly mounted tank is fitted to the gooseneck of the chassis can be used as a high-capacity flush tank or alternatively as extra spraying capacity for large jobs.
“Croplands specifically designed the boom on the Robot Ready Pinto to enable twin line plumbing and sensors, which are pointing directly to the ground.” Says Lachlan. The newly designed boom delivers a high specification liquid system accurately and compliments the robust chassis. The chassis features 1-inch stainless steel boom plumbing, triple nozzle bodies and standard boom recirculation being supplied by a stainless-steel high-performance Ace centrifugal pump. Dual flow meters are fitted as standard equipment to allow for highly accurate PWM blanket spraying as an addition to the standard spot spraying the WEED-IT Quadro system is renowned for. Left and Right fence row nozzles, a standard high clearance of 1000mm for in-crop capabilities and easy-to-use fill panel with 2-inch fill, tank rinse, agitation & a handwash tank round out an exceptional package that ticks all the boxes.
Standard inclusions make spraying simple with work lights fitted, along with additional blue lights for nighttime spraying.
Braydon Bullock, grower located at Oakey in Queensland saw the Robot Ready Pinto integrated with the SwarmBot on his property during Croplands and SwarmFarm’s testing. “The unit looks solid. I like how the WEED-IT sensors are mounted at a right angle to the boom facing straight down into the stubble, I note there is also plenty of room for the boom plumbing to be mounted.” Braydon says.
South Australia grower Brendon Johns says a Croplands WEED-IT sprayer is the only machine he operates that pays for itself in savings.
Brendon and Denise Johns farm north of Adelaide, in the Upper Mid North. Their business is called Northern Grain.
They grow a third each of wheat, barley and lentils, and are working to increase the percentage of lentils up to 50 percent.
All those crops need attention and an intelligent spray program. That means ensuring the right chemical goes on the right plant at the right time. This is good for the crop, the environment and the back pocket.
Ten years ago Brendon and Denise bought their first optical spot sprayer. An optical spot sprayer has sensors on the boom that detect chlorophyl in weeds in fallow and fire spray only at those plants. This is a big saving compared to blanket spraying a whole paddock.
“That was an 800-litre tank with an 80-ft boom and didn’t cover enough ground, but we had it long enough to work out the economics,” Brendon says.
Brendon does the day-to-day management of Northern Grain, while Denise runs the business side. They both have business degrees, and Denise has an MBA.
This gives them a head start as when they bought the original farm off Brendon’s parent’s they considered the structure of the company and set up an advisory board to support growth, communication and governance.
“I wanted to avoid conflict with Brendon about business choices and buying machinery. We needed a discussion process to make important decisions and be accountable for those decisions,” Denise says.
So when they started looking for a bigger sprayer, they needed a way to compare brands which would stand up to scrutiny.
They drew up a matrix of qualities – price, technology, ease of use, servicing, etc. – and rated different models. The winner is their current sprayer, a Croplands Sonic WEED-IT with a 36.6m boom.
The WEED-IT has two tanks with separate controls – a 5000-litre tank broadacre tank and a 1500-litre ‘hot’ tank. They can be used together as a single large tank for one chemical or used separately to do spot-spraying and blanket-spraying and at the same time.
“Going into the seeding season we have flexibility to use different combinations of tanks, depending on the targets.
For example, we can use the main tank to blanket-spray pre-emergent mixes and use the hot tank to spot spray harder-to-kill weeds such as large marshmallows.
Brendon Johns, Northern Grain, South Australia
Over winter they mainly use the WEED-IT with both tanks joined together as a normal boom spray. They have a self-propelled sprayer which does the majority of blanket spraying, while the WEED-IT is the back-up.
“This winter we used them both to spray grubs. When we are busy, we can do up to 1000 ha a day with both sprayers in ideal conditions,” Brendon says.
The joy of spot-spraying is it saves so much chemical. It can use 90 percent less spray in a paddock.
“If we only spray 10 percent of the paddock, it will do enough hectares to pay for itself in three years.”
Denise says not only does the WEED-IT pay for itself in savings, it is also environmentally friendly, because it uses less chemical.
With the WEED-IT, more effective chemicals that cost more also become a viable option.
This is predominantly for summer weeds. It has a good ability to control fleabane and other hard-to-kill weeds using higher rates with products that are not normally economical.
Brendon says
The sensors are spaced 1m apart along the boom and each sensor covers four nozzles. Triple nozzles are on the hot line (the spot sprayer) 250 mm apart, and single nozzles are on the flat line (for blanket spraying) at 500 mm spacing.
Brendon says the Sonic boom follows the contours.
“It is a simple, robust boom spray with little to no maintenance. We find height is important for the sensors, but not as critical as people worry about.”
The WEED-IT offers a variety of ways to fill and mix. It has a venturi system to mix and suck in liquids and powders and powerful pumps to pull in water.
“We often have unskilled labour, like uni students and we don’t let them mix. We usually batch chemicals and suck it straight in.”
Like any machinery, a more experienced person is better, but Brendon says they can easily start people off on the WEED-IT.
“It is relatively simple, so long as they can drive a tractor and use auto-steer. The main control to get right is the sensitivity.
“If it is set too sensitive, it fires too often. If it is not sensitive enough and it misses weeds. But once it’s set up, it’s set and forget.”
The WEED-IT calibrates automatically for different light conditions and speed of travel. Brendon and his crew usually work at about 16 kph using a 300-hp tractor (although he says 200 hp would be enough).
Each year the sprayer covers their farm three times a year in WEED-IT mode. Then it does another 200 hours and covers half of it as the winter back-up blanket sprayer.
Back-up service from Croplands has been easy. “We don’t need much, but if we do, parts are out of Adelaide overnight.”
Maintenance is straight-forward – just greasing, and cleaning the sensors occasionally. They house it in a shed to keep the electronics out of the rain.
While dust, mud and general bouncing around in paddocks can play havoc on electronics, longevity does not appear to be an issue with optical spot sprayers.
“Our first optical spot sprayer was built in 1997. We were the third owner, and it is still being used by the neighbour.”

WEED-IT retrofit gives Queensland farmer affordable way to hammer tough weeds
Retrofitting a WEED-IT optical spraying system to a John Deere self-propelled sprayer is giving a Queensland farming family control over hard-to-kill weeds.
Nigel and Trudy Parker and their son Josh grow sorghum, wheat and chickpeas on 1700 ha on Mistie Downs, their dryland farm north of Clermont.
Rainfall at Mistie Downs averages 600 mm per year, which predominantly arrives in summer.
“The beauty of this country is it has a good depth of soil. It captures the summer rain and stores it. A crop is still able to get moisture even in a dry spell” Nigel says.
After rain, there is a weed burst and at that time, it makes sense to blanket spray. The dilemma for Nigel, Trudy and Josh was how to deal with the straggler weeds.
Before we had WEED-IT we would have to spray the whole paddock for minimal weeds. Now we can just target the weeds.
Nigel Parker, Mistie Downs, Queensland
WEED-IT optical spot sprayers can be mounted as a retro fit kit option on tow-behind sprayers, but the Parker family felt it was more economical to add it to their existing self-propelled. They would stay in their comfortable cab without the cost of another tractor.
WEED-IT and the self-propelled John Deere are a good match.
“They are two independent systems. That’s the beauty of it. There are no complications with them trying to talk to each other.”
The John Deere carries the boom and spray tank and looks after the section control. The WEED-IT system is a series of sensors at 1m intervals along the boom. Each sensor controls, four nozzles space at 250 mm.
When a sensor detects a weed, the weed gets sprayed with the closest nozzles. If it is a small weed, one nozzle gets it. Bigger weeds get targeted by more nozzles, ensuring every weed gets hit at the right rate. The sensitivity of the sensors can be altered and they work just as well during the day and at night.
The Parkers’ Deere sprayer has a 36m boom and a 3000-litre tank. That tank can either be used for blanket-spraying or for WEED-IT spot-spraying.
Nigel says it takes about 10-minutes to swap from blanket applications to WEED-IT. “We just turn some taps, and the nozzle bodies screw in or out to swap over. It is not difficult.”
When blanket-spraying, Nigel and Josh travel at about 20 kph and they go 12-15 kph for spot-spraying.
With the WEED-IT, they can save up to 90 percent of spray costs.
“I hope the system will pay for itself in five to six years, depending on the seasons. If it is dry, we don’t see as many weeds and we won’t need it as much. But in a wet year we may use it far more.”
Their WEED-IT gives Nigel and Josh more control over when they spray.
“If we don’t have to have lots of weeds, we can just run over the paddock without using much chemical. It keeps the paddock tidy.
Spraying weeds while still small is one advantage. Another is being able to use higher rates and more expensive sprays to target hard-to-kill weeds such as Feathertop Rhodes grass.
“We can target them more often. We haven’t been doing it long enough to lower the seed bank, but it’s a given it will happen.”
Deciding that the WEED-IT was the tool they needed and which version to get took some time. Croplands Queensland Territory Manager Lachlan Coom and a contractor with a tow-behind WEED-IT came out to the farm to demo the system.
Lachlan talked through what we wanted to achieve. He was very patient. I kept going back with questions: ‘What if we did this?’ Or ‘What if we did that?’
Nigel says
There are lots of WEED-IT systems working locally. “It helped with the decision that what we are doing is not new. It is proven technology and people are happy with it.”
Once Nigel and Trudy decided they wanted WEED-IT retro-fitted to the self-propelled, the next issue was making it affordable. Trucking the sprayer to a Croplands workshop was going to be expensive, so Nigel offered to strip the boom down and then accommodate the installers on the farm.
Josh spent the four days with them helping and learning.
“It was in our interests to look after them and it meant we could see what they were doing in case there is trouble later.”
The hand rail had to be changed in two places to keep the Deere sprayer’s ability to fold for transport and storage in the shed.
There is now an extra monitor in the cab, which does not bother Nigel in the slightest. It is easy to use and Lachlan guided them through it.
Nigel appreciated that Croplands understood that it is a big decision and up-front cost. Their flexibility to do the installation on-farm lowered that cost.
“Doing it at our place worked out well for us. They are a great bunch of people – Lachlan, Doyle, Tim and Damian.”
(It also helps that Trudy is an excellent host and kept everyone well-fed.)
The Parker family’s WEED-IT has already cut their spray bill and is giving them more control over when and what they spray. It is also better for the environment to cut the amount of chemicals needed.
“It has been a handy, valuable tool. It has got to be better to put a little chemical in a smaller area,” Nigel concludes.

WEED-IT RETRO FIT Sprayer Kit
WEED-IT can be retrofitted to any self-propelled, trailed or 3-point linkage sprayer using a retro fit kit.
Shane and Nicky Beil at Kilcumin Sation, near Clermont, Queensland take deliver of their John Deere 410R with WEED-IT retro-Fit Kit fitted.
WEED-IT a lifeline in Queensland farmer’s fight against resistant weeds.
Queensland farmer Shane Beil says he would not be able to keep farming without his Weed-IT precision spot sprayer.
Shane and his wife Nicky’s farm is Kilcummin Station, near Clermont, in Central Queensland. They run cattle and grow broadacre crops on about 7300 ha.
Crops are primarily sorghum, wheat and chickpeas, and they have also grown mung beans and sunflowers. Except for contract transporters, who cart their grain, Shane and his family manage the day-to-day running of the farm – from planting through to crop care and harvesting.
It is a dryland farm. We have black soils, which are good to work. We run 250 breeders and their progeny, all on natural grasses.
Shane Beil, Kicummin Station, near Clermont, Queensland
“This year we grew 2500 ha of sorghum, which we planted in January and harvested in May. We planted 1250 ha of chickpeas in April and we will harvest them in September or October. The chickpeas are a good option for us because we can get a crop from them when it is too dry for wheat.”
At the beginning of 2024, the Beil family upgraded to a new self-propelled sprayer to boost the efficiency of the cropping program. It is a John Deere 410R with a 36m boom and 3800-litre tank.
To reduce chemical use but still target the herbicide-resistant weeds that many farmers in Central Queensland now have, he also had Croplands fit a WEED-IT retrofit kit (spot spray system) to the new sprayer.
WEED-IT’s ‘green-on-brown’ system for spot spraying on fallow ground can reduce water and chemical use (and therefore costs) by up to 95 percent. It uses near infrared sensors to detect individual weeds as small as 1 cm2 at speeds up to 20 kph and then directs spray nozzles to dose them.
The Beil family’s WEED-IT system has sensors mounted every metre along the boom. Each sensor works with four nozzles spaced at 250 mm intervals. Shane says when it detects a weed the size of your thumb, it uses one nozzle. When it detects a bushier weed it uses two, and when it detects a patch it uses four.

We used the WEED-IT to do three fallow sprays when we prepared the ground for sorghum in December and January.
Shane Beil
“At the time we did the first spray, the paddocks were fairly dirty. We left a few weeds behind and then we had a bit of rain, so we went again and got 100 percent. We then did a third pass over 10 percent of the area before we planted.”
Shane says he operates the WEED-IT at 18 kph but it is set up to work at speeds up to 22 kph.

Three generations of the Whykes family work their 4700-ha dryland farm west of Charlton in Victoria’s Mallee region. They produce barley, wheat, canola, lentils, peas, fava beans, lupin and vetch and oaten hay.
Because they sow their crops using direct drill or minimum tillage, they depend on agrichemicals to control weeds. They use their sprayer to apply a full range of crop protection – herbicides, insecticides and fungicides.
In April the family took ownership of their second self-propelled RoGator, which is equipped with dual spraying technology. It can do traditional blanket spraying or use its WEED-IT Quadro sensors to target individual weeds.
Peter says he and his sons were impressed with their previous 6000-litre RoGator 1300B self-propelled, so they were keen to upgrade it for the new 7000-litre RoGator 1300C.
“We bought the first RoGator in this area. It is a great machine with a strong boom. We ordered the new one with WEED-IT sensors because we want to reduce our chemical usage.
There are two big benefits to using less chemicals. One is that it is better for the environment and our soils, and the second is we will save money and time.
Peter Whykes
The Whykes family was hoping the new sprayer would arrive as scheduled at the beginning of the year because they plan to use its spot spraying capability during late summer and early autumn.
As it turned out, it did not arrive until April. Although it was late, it did arrive in time for them to see how effective it is. Both Peter and his son Jon are impressed.
“The sensors need to be able to distinguish the green weeds against brown soil, so we will mainly use spot spraying to apply glyphosate and paraquat during the summer fallow prior to sowing.
“It seems to be very accurate and it has done a good job. We were able to target weeds with the sensors while operating at 17-18 kph,” Peter says.
Jon estimates the WEED-IT spot spraying technology will reduce their chemical use during summer and autumn by 50-80 percent.
We would have saved $100,000 if we had used the WEED-IT over the whole summer. We did one job for a neighbour on contract and we used 30 percent of the amount of chemical we anticipated to do the job.
John Whykes
During blanket spraying, Peter says it is easy to prime the boom. An agitator in the tank works continuously and the product is continuously pumped through the boom so there is not a delay when spraying starts.
EASY TO CALIBRATE
The RoGator 1300C is also very easy to calibrate and has impressive section control, both of which come down to Capstan Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technology. PWM regulates the application rate independent of pressure and it gives the ability to control every nozzle individually.
With Capstan PWM, 50hz solenoids mean nozzles constantly switch on and off up to 50 times per second. This gives the ability to vary the amount of time a nozzle cycles, making it possible to vary application rates while keeping the pressure constant.
“Using the previous system, if you wanted to increase the spray rate, the pump sped up and that increased the pressure so a bigger volume of chemical went out. The problem with that is it can encourage spray drift through fine droplets as the pressure increased,” Jon says.
“With this system, you put in the preselected application rate and pressure. As the speed of the sprayer varies, the pulsing rate of the nozzles adjusts to maintain the rate and the pressure. You know that 99 percent of the droplets are the right size to hit the target.”
nozzle control
Jon says this system also gives full individual nozzle control. This includes turn compensation so that during turns, each nozzle applies the exact rate required to make coverage consistent across the boom.
Individual nozzles also turn off if they are approaching an area that has already been sprayed. Section control in the Whykes’ previous RoGator deactivated and activated a cluster of nozzles.
This meant a number of nozzles would turn on together, even if only one in the cluster was over an area that had been not been sprayed. This could lead to over spraying and the extra costs and potential crop damage it can cause.
Boom auto fold and cruise control
“Another big step up with our new RoGator is the auto fold function for the boom,” Jon says. “With this one, there is just a single button that you push to fold out or in.”
“The new RoGator also has two auto cruise controls. You select the work speed and the turning speed and then you can just switch between them.”
sustainable spraying with WEED-IT
With its ability to reduce drift and spot spray, the new RoGator with WEED-IT is helping the Whykes family keep up with the very latest in technology and stay ahead of the regulators.
They believe that in the future all farmers and contractors will have to be able to show that they are only using the chemicals they need to use, and that they are only applying them where they need to go.
