@LowBoomLowDrift Great interview Mike, really insightful in how the business has grown to be what it has become in a relatively short space of time. Well done.

….the search continues. Still trying to find a sprayer operator who likes lifting 20L (26kg) glyphosate cans. Make your day easier and chose a 640L CTS IBC of Roundup Energy from @FrontierAg and @Bayer4CropsUK

@nickbadger2 Don’t know that game. Water rate in this field was 6.9 gpa. So it would take you 53 minutes to spray out this 2140 gallon tank at that speed and rate.

@RAGlubis @LowBoomLowDrift Cheers guys. Any totes/barrels/kegs refillable with same chem in CA or only one-way single use due to miles/logistics?? Starting to happen here in the uk but tiny distances compared with you folk..

@nickbadger2 @LowBoomLowDrift 1000 litre and 500 litre caged totes for most generic chems, Bayer etc use some plastic 450 litre to 900 litre. Drums and barrels are 108 litre to 210 litre. some 20 to 50 litre kegs for seed treatment and the odd other chem.

Few ideas for chem companies before next season. Maybe they will see this. 1. Banjo valves only on the totes/barrels. 2. Big writing on each box. What the rainfast is and how many acres each box covers. 3. Green gloves in every box. What else ?

Were you or family at Shuttleworth in the mid 60s to late 80s? V high chance you are in college photos that have recently been rescued and just uploaded on the Shuttleworth Alumni (old gits) website. Many have names against them. They were the days…. shuttleworthalumni.co.uk

If you are planning on using prosulfocarb this autumn but need a CTS unit to attach onto the IBC, feel free to DM myself or contact @RichardhGarnett of Wisdom System for guidance and help on sprayer connections
Frontier Agriculture@FrontierAg

@Clayton_PP_Ltd It's another great example of supply chain collaboration, with CTS-compatible products significantly improving operator safety and efficiency while also helping to protect the wider farmed environment. Learn more here: frontierag.co.uk/cts
