Broadacre cropping throws up some unique challenges for spray equipment.

There have been fundamental shifts in farming practices and farm sizes over the last decades, as well as a deeper understanding of environmental factors such as spray drift and herbicide resistance, all of which play an important role in selecting the right spray equipment for your farming operation.

Croplands has extensive technical understanding of these issues, as well as an excellent range of sprayers to meet your needs.

selecting the right broadacre sprayer

When purchasing spray equipment for broadacre cropping, consider the following factors to ensure you get the results you need.

Tank Size and Stability

Fertilisers generally have a high specific gravity than pesticides and water, so choose a well-constructed and balanced tank that can cope with heavier loads.

Boom Width and Clearance

Whether you’re covering large areas or hilly terrain, consider the width and clearance of booms.

Equipment Durability

Fertilisers and some pesticides can be extremely acidic or alkaline, so ensure machinery has durable powder coating to avoid damage to the framework.

Equipment Weight

Are you on heavy soils or want to be out on the paddock quicker after the rain?

Agitation

Big isn’t always better. A bigger pump may agitate more, but it really comes down to the pressure coming through your nozzles.

Croplands pumps are not only powerful, but they deliver between 185-250L/minute, through the nozzles at a constant and consistent pressure.

Fuel Efficiency

Croplands’ self-propelled RoGator delivers excellent fuel efficiency over other models in its class.

Its world-renowned engine delivers the grunt you need to get the job done, all the while keeping fuel usage at a minimum.

Nozzle Types

Choosing the correct nozzles types for insecticide, herbicide and fertiliser applications will not only make them more effective, but reduce the potential for spray drift.
