Wow that is a lot of acres for those hours. We have a 09 Case 3320 that has just over 6,000 hrs and I figure it has covered 150K to 175K acres. Different spraying world I think here as we run a fair amount of high gallon fert and vegetable acres.
What is your typical Gallons per acre?
The type of spraying makes a HUGE difference. I spray mostly good size fields (160-800 acres) and the vast majority of it is @ 5GPA. 1000 acres Is a pretty light day most of the time. Guys averaging 40 acre fields and 20 GPA could NEVER come close to the acres per engine hour that I can do. This is why custom rates HAVE to vary from place to place and it is impossible to compare my rate to someone custom spraying high water volumes on relatively small fields. |
A new milestone.
