Forwarders

With the country that Beechworth Spraying covers ranging from tame pasture to extreme conditions, a vehicle that could go anywhere was needed for use in plantation spraying. A six-wheel and eight-wheel drive machine, were converted into spraying machines which have a clearance of about one metre and will virtually go anywhere. They are able to drive over stumps and rocks with relative ease.

Interrowers

The Interrowers are purpose built spray rigs that are designed to apply two different chemical mixtures simultaneously. A hooded boom sprays between the mounds with end jets spraying over the mounds or over the trees. The units are telescopic for varying mound widths from 3.5m to 5m
