Goldacres company of Australia has a new sprayer with 14,000 litres (3,700 U.S. gallons) of tank capacity. The main spray tank is divided into two 6,000-litre tanks, plus there are two 1,000-litre chemical shuttles up front.

“The sprayer mixes chemical on the go so you don’t have to have 12,000 litres of mixed chemical on board,” says Roger Richards, Goldacres engineering manager. He was speaking in a video by Graham Fuller, national farm machinery writer for The Land. Click here to see Fuller’s article and the video. Richards is at the left in the photo.

Thanks to Glen Nicoll of the Manitoba Co-operator for sending me this article. He saw the article in Grainews about the 160-foot drill and thought I’d be interested.
