11 John Deere Sprayer Parts To Maximize Spraying Efficiency

Applying herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers to agricultural crops are a critical step in their emergence and sustained growth throughout the growing season. Advances in agricultural chemicals and solutions have made the application process much more important, not only to reduce costs but also to minimize damage that could result from off-target spray drift.

Spray drift can cause damage to adjoining crops, contamination of critical water sources, and health risks to people and animals. To avoid drift, operators need to pay close attention to the overall process by utilizing proper equipment, solutions, and practices. To assist this process, crop producers using John Deere sprayers have a number of John Deere sprayer parts available to increase comfort, safety, and overall efficiency while operating sprayers. Let’s take a closer look.

Row Crop Fenders

During the spraying process, it’s common to get mud and crop debris thrown onto the machine or in some cases, all the way into the operator station. These row crop fenders will prevent material from entering the cab or covering the exterior of the equipment.

Drop Nozzles

Drop nozzles ensure spray is being placed accurately between rows or into the crop, reducing off-target spray drift and maximizing the use of solutions.

Hose Fittings and Clamps

These heavy-duty hose fittings and clamps are designed to keep liquids and parts attached, keeping operators active in the field during the spraying process.

Air-Spring Leveling

The air-spring leveling systems makes sure ride height is maintained, ensuring 4-in. of travel ip and down at all times, for 8-in. of total  travel so bags don’t need to be individually filled or deflated after each transport.
