OUR SERVICES

Crop Spraying
Spraying is undertaken using 2 self propelled Househam sprayers Harrier 4000 and a Merlin mk2 4000.
Having 2 sprayers maximises timing and minimises wash outs.
A water bowser can be provided if needed for larger jobs.
Both sprayers are equipped with 24 meter booms and high clearance for taller crops eg. Desiccation of Oilseed Rape For low ground pressure both machines are fitted with Michelin 600 Xeobib tyres which travel very well in wet conditions.
The machines are both equipped with gps shut off to minimise overlaps and auto steer.
