Sprayers using Proptec Atomizers are outstanding for bush, bramble, nursery, and staked crops. Get superior canopy penetration and coverage, for unparalleled disease control.

Nagging problems with fungus that you just can't get rid of with your cannon sprayer?  Clean up your crop with a Proptec boom. Want to switch to foliar fertilizer? Get uniform application and better under-leaf coverage with Proptec for maximum uptake, with reduced chance of burn (call for details).

A few bush applications- does one of these groups apply to you?

• Blueberry spraying
• Raspberry spraying
• Bramble spraying
• Nursery and landscape spraying
• Saskatoon spraying
• Coffee spraying
• Evergreen spraying
• Christmas tree spraying
• Small-citrus tree spraying

Advantages for bush spraying applications:

• Deep canopy penetration
• Superior coverage - 3X better coverage in least covered area of plant!
• Low water use- as little as 10 GPA (50 l/ha)
• Reduced AI requirements
• Wind resistance
• High precision: keep spray on the row you sprayed.
• Higher yields with no increase in inputs- see literature links below
• See other advantages

• Potential Acaricides for Management of Blueberry Bud Mite in Michigan Blueberries
• Sprayer Type and Pruning Affect the Incidence of Blueberry Fruit Rots

At left, above: Raspberry Nursery, solid-set. At Center: Christmas trees, approximately 6-7 feet tall. Do you have scale problems on your evergreens? Lufidermia? Mites? Borers? Don’t spray 200-400 gallons to the acre to get coverage inside the canopy. Proptec™ will get you coverage inside the canopy with as little as 5 gallons per acre. Concentrated active materials make short work of your tough pests. At right: small citrus tree spraying- 5GPA at 13 MPH give 65 acres per hour- that’s productivity!

At Right: The following two charts compare a competitor’s airblast at 20 gallons per acre with a Proptec at 10 gallons per acre- half the water.

Look at the coverage in the lower right of each diagram: when the canopy was thickest (July 11), Proptec had 300% more coverage in the least-covered area of the plant, compared to the coverage by the conventional sprayer, even when spraying with 1/2 the water!  The least-covered area is almost always the most important for determining disease control.

The chart at right is the coverage from the Proptec™. The chart below right shows coverage from the competitive sprayer.
