Great video Mike

[@johnlindquist6335]

Mike you may know this already but here is the numbers to find GPH & HP in your equipment. It takes 5 gallons of fuel to make 100 HP per hour. First to fine GPH: take HP divided by 100 times 5 GL. 500 HP /100 *5=25 GPH. Second to fine HP; take GPH divided by 5 then times 100. Here is an example of your 1050. 22 GPH/5*100 =440HP. This is a good thumb rule. I worked at a Cat Truck shop for 17 years.The new electronic engines we perform a PAR test if the customer is short on power to verify low HP. This gives you an idea on the performance of you equipment. Looks like the 1050 is short on fuel! All of these test are at full rated load max HP, not half throttle.

[@mikemitchell2554]

That's very interesting John, I didn't know that actually. 🤔🙂 I appreciate that rule of thumb... And that would be considered acurate even on theses new engines loaded with emissions crap as well as the older no emissions?

[@johnlindquist6335]

@@mikemitchell2554 Yes with new engines it's easy because of computer equipment on the engine. With the older non emission engines is little harder. If you have the HP number and the GPH you can work it out.

Where do you guys farm? Also, what HP do you have up front and how does it handle? I am worried I don't have enough 😬

[@pompy65]

@@mikemitchell2554 We farm in eastern part of The Netherlands close to Germany(about 2.5 hours drive from Hannover😜), we use a Caseih Maxxum 125CVX and ist enough for this type of sprayer.

[@timgear9892]

That sprayer is a BEAST! You Must video cam for us all to watch when you get it stuck and have to pull it out with the 9RX's :)

[@mikemitchell2554]

😂 I hope I don't have to do that! But I would video it!!

[@jacobl1657]

Be interesting to see how that holds up. From what I've heard, euro sprayers just aren't designed to spray at the speed that is common in NA. In my experience pull types are just too slow to keep up with a self propelled. It normally ties up another guy tending the machine, but a SP doing 20+ mph is going to outrun a pull type all day. And if you reallly needed to cover acres, you'd just have a modified TerraGator to spray low rate. You'd have a 2400 gal tank, stability to spray 24-25 mph, and a 45 mph road speed. Only issue is that you're stuck with big float tires.

[@mikemitchell2554]

Ahh.. Yeah, we don't spray that fast anymore, we used to do up to 18-19mph, but found that it's too hard on the sprayers - they get shook and we have to dump them a couple years sooner. Also, number 2, we found that our coverage was lacking.. So we have slowed down to 16-17 now and have seen an improvement in the application. 🙂

[@jacobl1657]

@@mikemitchell2554 Interesting, what kind of self propelled machines were you running? I saw you had Patriots. Those will get beat up pretty quick. Having solid mounted axles on that tubular frame does nothing for the ride or life of the machine when doing high speed application. Personally, I'd say the new RGCs are the best for faster running just from the suspension they have. Know multiple operators that consistently run 20 mph on pre-emerge and put 40-50k acres on the machine a year. For coverage, that's quite surprising that you'd see issues. Theoretically, you have the same amount of product being put out, regardless of speed. The only real difference would be boom stability and the extra wind speed. So unless you're running crazy high pressures, the only thing that could be affecting the machine would be the aim command system. Making sure your duty cycle is in the sweet spot (approx. 2/3) and that you're not over driving your tips are common issues if you do happen to see a lack of coverage.

[@mikemitchell2554]

@@jacobl1657 yes, we use the Case machines.. Around us, we get wind all the time, so 20-30km avg winds are not uncommon to spray in. Which makes spraying at high speeds tough. Also, we start leaving tracks because of the high amount of dust we leave. Typically we re very dry here

930 should be enough, its not that heavy compared to a full grain cart, and none of it is in ground. Keep the tire pressures low, and make sure you have enough hydraulic capacity (y)

Hi Mike you should chop the 930's in for 1050's The 930 will struggle and isn't very reliable. Use the 1050 for spraying and the grain carts. Far better gearbox for that job than the 9RX. I'm not sure the 1050 will handle your seeder's tho? But would be a back up when you are busy. Get that shop built...🙈

[@mikemitchell2554]

Haha I appreciate that feed back, that ultimately would be the goal I think, but the 1050s run nearly double the $$$ and no they won't pull our big drills - about 150hp short.. So it's hard to justify those tractors because we can buy quad tracks with a 150hp more for the same price... 😬

You must be pretty displeased with the red self-propelled sprayers to go back to pull types !!! I'm not putting down pull type sprayers the trend just seems to be the other direction !Never even heard of this brand of sprayer , it looks like a monster though , European I assume ?? We need much more info when the season comes , kinda doubt they did a lot of testing with the sprayer in very deep snow !!! Your machinery line up in the snow is most impressive ! I've had those hydraulic tip handles ,they can help with leverage and getting the correct outlets if they are colored right ! You gotta work smarter not harder ,we need more content !!!! Hahahaha Thanks for bringing us what you can I find it very interesting !

[@mikemitchell2554]

Thanks Lee! Always appreciate ya!... We still have 2 Case SP but traded the 3rd one for two of theses Amazone Sprayers. New SPs have just been loosing touch with reality and their cost vs efficiency on my farm is also out of balance. Theses Amazones are 3200gal/132ft and with the Fendts I road them just as fast an SP. So on paper it's a in terms of cost it's a 2-1 On efficiency its a 2-1 to 3-1. So pay for one SP in cost MD get 2 to 3 SPs in efficiency. But I guess we ll see when the rubber meets the road here come spring. 🙂

What are the advantages of pull type vs a self propelled sprayer ?

[@mikemitchell2554]

Good question Jake, like anything what works for one farm might not for another but for us it's utilizing our tractors we have. For us we ll actually gain efficiency and lower our cost per acre. You can buy a 2 Amazones for the price of 1 SP unit and gain a minimum 1 to 1 ratio or at most a 2 to 1 ratio meaning pay the price of one SP and get 2 or 3 back in productivity. That's the long and short of it.

@@adamfindlay9632 Ahhh.. Yeah, but even 10k can be busy.. Well, we have the Turbine Spray plane, plus with Amazones they're 3200gal/132ft and are actually more efficient for our operation then SPs. Like 2-1. In some cases, 3-1.. So those are big numbers. Also, we still have 2 SP units.

[@adamfindlay9632]

Mike Mitchell OH YAA I know 10k is very busy I’m from the Ottawa Valley here in Ontario and the biggest farms in our area are around 3k plus milking about 500-600 head with around 1000 total animals... My family does about 1400 acres of corn/soybeans and a little wheat or barely mostly for feed and cover when seeding down into hay for our herd of 200 black angus so I know how busy it can be!! LUV THE VIDEOS keep them coming I think you fill an unseen part of our Canadian 🇨🇦 ag industry out on the prairies I always love to keep up on what you guys are up 2 out there

Wait... They are forward facing? Haha I didn't even notice.. I think they should be backwards no? Unless they wouldn't trail as well for some reason? 🤷‍♂️

Mike, we talked earlier about the required power - if your 930´s were enough. I just fround this video, with a 300 horse Case pulling the UX 11200. Looks like a decent speed! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYawaXqgqcumsM0

[@tobiasjacobsen_dk]

No i knew I liked it beforehand 😂😂 can you tell a bit a about you switching to a tow sprayer ? Shear volume? Good you are back !

[@mikemitchell2554]

Yes, shear volume and efficiency reasons are why.. When I get spraying with them, I ll let eveyone know how many acres I can cover at what speed compared to the SP units based off of each of their price tags. Right now, I can only do the math on paper and tell you that I can buy 2 Amazones for the price of 1 SP unit. And I can tell you that based off of a fill station being (x) amount of km away, and at (x) amount of speed (reason for (x) is I can't remember what figured off the top of my head here) but that I can get 2 and up to 3 SP units worth of efficiency for the price of 1.... So time will tell I guess, we ll see how well they work come spring. 🙂
