Looking for recommendations for a sprayer for our new cider orchard. We have 4+ acres and 350 trees planted and will likely plant another 150 or so. We have a John Deere 4000 series ....
About 150 of the trees are two and three years old, 30 newly grafted this year and another 170 rootstock planted to be grafted in the field next spring. There are 8 different varieties of cider apples mostly on B118 - a few Antonovka. So far we have not sprayed at all ...
There are a couple of used GoodBoys in the area but I am wondering about the wisdom of buying used.
Any advice greatly appreciated.....will we need booms?
