Subject: RE: Owning sprayer vs hiring it


We spray the exact same acres you are wanting spray a year easily with a 4710 deere. First thing i look at is we can do it ourselves when it needs to be done. Second on the chemical side i had a coop do some one year and they charged me 17 for roundup through there machine, when i had previously bought a shuttle from them earlier for 13. When asked they just said that is the way it is. Had i known that i would have bought the rest of the shuttle from them at 13 since i needed one anyways. Third thing is i have had a pull type excellent machines but in no way would i go back after having a self propelled just way more efficient. fourth thing look at the size i often wish i had a 1200 gallon tank with 120's so when we go to 10 gallon spray work we can cover 120 acres versus 80 for time savings.
