    Old iron + homegrown ingenuity + cutting edge tech = Art...albeit highly functional, efficiency improving and money saving art. So well done! 👍

      @@karljacobson1575 It might be "stupidly expensive" as a system of systems, but when you consider how much Welker Farms spends on weed control chemicals, anything that allows them to operate more efficiently regarding treatment application should be applauded, not denigrated. Welker Farms is a business, so the better they utilize their resources, the better their profit margin, which in turn allows them to spend more on their operation in order to gain even greater efficiency and profitability. Plus, it's really cool that the system plays the Imperial March during Big Brute's calibration... Tell me I'm wrong... 😆

    I pray all the "organic" " green" weenies pay attention to the HUGE investment farmers and the manufacturers they depend on to make our make food production efficient, environmentally friendly and safe. Chem Fallow is a critical component of modern farming that keeps viable land ready for planting when conditions align. At a mere fraction of your acreage spot spraying yields huge results with a huge reduction in product. Well done, and glad to see a century plus old farm staying current!

If it breaks down the road, the brackets, then maybe change it, if you guys feel like it. Just because someone doesn't like the look of it, doesn't mean jack. Practial over looks all day. And Thanks for the videos. I try to watch them all when I can. Keep up the good, hard work.

I’ve had two of the 120ft carbon fiber booms and I absolutely love them. Had zero problems. I hope the aluminum lasts for you.

    May god grant you the moisture for your crops!!!!!!
    You all take care and be safe. Thanks for showing us your new sprayer system.
