COMBO-RATE BOOM END FLUSH
VALVE FOR RECIRCULATING BOOMS
Name of Inventor: Wilger Industries Ltd.
Name of Manufacturer: Wilger Industries Ltd.
T: 306-242-4121 | | E:
The Combo-Rate boom end flush valve (CRBEFV) will set
the next generation of sprayer booms, in both function
and boom hygiene. The valve easily incorporates the
easiest recirculating sprayer boom plumbing possible.
The flanged fitting can be attached to any boom pipe,
removing any threads from a sprayer boom (risk of
failure). The Combo-Rate ports on both sides of the
valve provide a nozzle body or turret to be placed at the
furthest most part of the spray boom, allow zero
deadspace for chemical residue to build and
accumulate. The boom end flush valve provides a full
drain flush valve directly below the last nozzle body at
the furthest-most part of the boom, ensuring the end of
the sprayer boom cannot develop any chemical buildup.
The nozzle body position also passive purges all air that
is caught in the sprayer boom that can cause nozzle
run-on. Every aspect of the flush valve is designed to
maximize function, safety & hygiene, and provide a
platform for the best sprayer booms for the next decade
and beyond.
Key Features:
• Improve environmental safety & sprayer hygiene
(Recirculating sprayer booms, less chemical
dripping or run-on, less cross contamination
between chemicals)
• Improve Operator safety and improve function.
(Fully contained flush valve, full boom drain & rinse,
common flanged fitting so it is compatible with
common plumbing fittings regardless of sprayer)
• Improved Productivity
(recirculating sprayer functions, no threaded fittings
that are prone to failure over time, better rinsing,
easier flushing, easy nozzle selection with turret)
• Most Compact Sprayer valve on the market - With
many sprayers today, the sprayer boom frame is
very tight, resulting in many products to retro-fit to
a recirculating sprayer boom would simply not fit or
work. The CRBEFV fits flush to the last nozzle body
turret, using no wasted space on the boom at all.

COMBYNE
Name of Inventor: Alain Goubau
Name of Manufacturer: Combyne Ag
T: 613-223-6110 |
E:
Combyne Ag is a digital crop marketing hub built for
grain farmers.
Independently integrating across the different crop
marketing programs and grain buyers a farmer works
with, Combyne manages all of a farmer’s marketing
records in mobile-friendly App, informing decisions
across every bushel of grain they market.
When it comes to selling their crop, farmers lack the
data, insight, and tools they need to make optimal
decisions. When deciding to sell, a farmer needs to
consider an overwhelming number of variables. This
includes data unique to a farmer’s individual farm (e.g.
cost of production, available storage, available
inventory) as well as micro- and macro- market
conditions (e.g. futures prices, local bids, freight costs).
In an ideal scenario, a farmer would make decisions that
would lead to optimal returns to their farm (e.g.
maximize gross margin) and minimal risk of losses (e.g.
overcommitting, selling below cost).

CROP INTELLIGENCE
Name of Inventor: South Country Equipment
Name of Manufacturer: South Country Equipment
T: 306-721-5050 |
E:
Crop Intelligence is a software application developed in
Regina, Saskatchewan that brings agronomic insights to
in-field soil moisture and environmental sensor data.
Soil moisture and rainfall are important determinants of
yield potential in field crops such as wheat and canola.
Crop Intelligence utilizes site-specific weather station
and soil moisture information throughout the growing
season to track Water Driven Yield Potential and support
the data-driven decisions of farmers and their
agronomists. Up to this point, Crop Intelligence has
focused primarily on dryland farming. However,
irrigation farmers are interested in utilizing the software,
even though it has not been optimized for their needs
or marketed to them.
