Farm Equipment Joins Equipment Dealers Foundation as Sponsor for Wisconsin Clay Shoot

Sep 26, 2024

North American Equipment Dealers Assn. is hosting several fundraising events throughout the U.S. to support its foundation, Equipment Dealers Foundation. Seven clay shoots and one golf tournament are planned this year. These events help the foundation provide scholarships to students pursuing a degree or technical certificate within the equipment industry.

Farm Equipment is joining the Wisconsin Clay Shoot at Milford Hills on Oct. 3, 2024, as a sponsor. In 2023, in celebration of Farm Equipment’s 55th anniversary, Farm Equipment and the North American Equipment Dealers Assn. (NAEDA) teamed up to donate $5,500 to the Equipment Dealers Foundation (EDF) during the Wisconsin clay shoot. Farm Equipment donated a portion of the proceeds from the advertising sales of its October/November issue, which featured an in-depth history on the farm equipment industry as well as the history of the publication.

Video: John Deere 500R Sprayer | Next-Generation Booms for Ultimate Precision

Experience the next level of precision spraying with the John Deere 500R sprayer and its new generation boom. Designed for modern farming operations and professional contractors, the 500R combines exceptional boom stability, accurate application and high productivity even at spraying speeds of up to 30 km/h.

The new boom generation features a compact 2.55 m transport width for safe and easy road travel across Europe, while unfolding in the field to working widths of up to 48 meters. A lightweight yet extremely rigid structure, combined with BoomTrac Pro 2, Active Boom Yaw Control and active roll damping, keeps the boom correctly positioned for consistent coverage and reduced drift.

Advanced spraying technologies such as ExactApply with 6-nozzles switchable from the cab, or single nozzle INC Pro using pulse width modulation ensure precise droplet control, minimized overlaps and optimized input efficiency. The result: higher accuracy, lower chemical usage and improved agronomic outcomes even in challenging field conditions.
