Self-propelled and trailed sprayer. Which farming option to choose?

A sprayer or sprinkler (“sprink” - “sprinkle”) is modern agricultural equipment for nourishing and moistening the soil, for spraying bioactive liquids, for controlling pests and plant diseases in farms. You can buy Tuman self-propelled sprayers with full payment immediately or on lease at EMTEH on the website www.emteh. en.

Both self-propelled and trailed sprinklers are popular among Russian farmers, although in recent years there has been a preponderance in favor of the former. In the recent past, literally 4 years ago, the number of self-propelled sprayers in the Russian Federation barely reached 15%. In the spring of 2022, the sales rate increased to 60% - quite a big jump. Trailer equipment has remained relevant on small farms that do not grow sunflower and corn. A trailed sprayer is suitable for processing small areas, the cost of which is lower than a self-propelled counterpart.

Farmers' interest in self-propelled sprinklers is well founded. They are more productive. Due to the large fuel tank, the self-propelled gun can work for a long time without refueling. Fuel economy is ensured by high processing speed. For comparison: trailed sprayers move at a speed of 20 km /h, respectively, so do draft vehicles that consume fuel. Self-propelled sprinklers have time to process crops at speeds up to 35 km/h. Saves not only fuel, but also time.

Another factor is the length of the rod, which in trailed models does not exceed thirty meters, while in self-propelled guns it reaches 36 meters. The combination of these pluses attracts the majority of farmers who, when buying sprayers, prefer self-propelled options.

When choosing a self-propelled sprinkler, the buyer is guided by the following points:

  • technical characteristics of special equipment, in particular fuel consumption, productivity;
  • frame strength;
  • engine power;
  • characteristics of the pump, which can be centrifugal or diaphragm-piston;
  • design features of the rod;
  • controlling the dose of liquids;
  • the volume of their agricultural land;
  • field conditions;
  • individual requirements.

Having singled out the most important criteria for himself, the agrarian stops at the technique that, at a high speed of processing crops, will not affect the cost of the crop.
