After tightening the bolts on a sprayer, run a paint pen along the bolt, nut, washers and chassis. Now you can do a visual check to ensure nothing is coming loose. Got a cool sprayer #protip & photo? Retweet this and share your tip. We'll turn them into an article. Tom Wolf

SY INSITOR is poised to fit many criteria as we enter the new decade. You can expect high yield and high quality, but also good Septoria tritici resistance and later drilling possibilities as we look to manage crop issues with a diminished crop protection armoury.
