sprayer for berries

kiwiroo · 05-22-2008, 11:06 PM

Need some advice from those of you out there that use sprayers in orchards/berries. I have about 7 acres of berries and between each row there is a grass strip, I need to spray to keep the strip under 6' for my mowing as well as keep the weeds down next to the plants. On each side of the plants there is about 2 1/2 ft of bare ground. I have seen a tractor setup like this where there was a sprayer on each side and it had a boot around the sprayers to protect overspray onto the plants. Any suggestions on brands/types as I have no experience with sprayers.
I will be using it on a deere 3520 tractor- thanks!

Thanks, exactly what I was looking for- Any idea on what a basic setup for a tractor mount runs with those? Do you own one?
