Teejet airmatic looking for advice/answers, trying to apply 50lt/ha at 15kmph fine or medium droplets through the system. Is it possible? Would love some help as answers are proving hard to find.

So pre harvest was 7.9% protein which seemed unusually low. Havest protein was around 13% so don’t see any correlation at all.

Fellow John Deere 740/745FD operators, what’s the remedy for bulldozing/pushing dirt through the middle section. Skid plates are in good condition, operating at 100-120Bar, frequently calibrating on level ground none of it helping.

Plant 2025 underway for GRDC Canola Establishment. Last year we could establish crops on between 5-10mm of water at this time of year. This year …. I think it’s going to take more! Back in 4 days ….

The difference that on row sowing has made this year in yet another crappy dry year for us is amazing. So good to have the technology to be able to do it.
