- Heading out with chemicals in the tank spraying at 9.4/US acre.
Spraying around 12mph currently and pulling pretty easy.
We hope this thing is going to work, otherwise it will be a massive fail! 😂 🤷♂️

I think this the first video of yours I saw. At that point I thought to myself, "This guy is crazy". Still watching and subscribed, 3+ years later, and I do watch every video.
It is really nice to see that people from North America enjoy some proper EU made products. Keep the videos going, good job!
Farming Life Croatia he is from Canadia
@@ianr5724 he said North America lol which includes Canada
O
@@ianr5724 😂
To bad it did not work out
Thanks for showing this Mike! Appreciate the effort you are putting into your videos!
Thanks good sir! 🙂
If you want to know how fast he’s going, look how fast you are going, I think you’re doing the same
Great demo vid👍that’s one fast spraying rig, looks nice n stable at speed. Fill up looks simple unlike other sprayers.
Well, now I guess we ll see how it goes!
Just started watching as well, pretty impressive. Actually at first I was going to compliment you on your drone handling, then realized you were driving ( also impressive). Anyway, great to see the different equipment rolling. Keep up the good work, and videos!
Thanks Mark!
Awesome channel, love the videos Mike. Sure miss the days of being back in Canada in farm country, stuck down here in south Texas now. Keep given 'er. cheers
Hi Fester Bestertester: Well Mike showed in an earlier video, it is very easy to cross the border from US to Can - SK; just walk over the border to the land of Mike. No walls whatsoever 😒😎.
Maybe you can ask to support him at his big and great Farm? Otherwise I will ask him if he need a hand. Like to drive this combination. Uhh; I mean would love it; to drive this puppy: Fendt & Amazooone! 👍✔😃;
Won't bother about the Freaking metric, lol👍
That is Awesome Sprayer & Tractor. Glad to see more videos from you.
Thanks Chad! I appreciate that as always!
What a beast of a setup Mike looks real good thanks for the video.
Thanks Jeff!
spray pattern looks perfect. Nice, flat field to work in.
Almost too fine, might want a courser nozzle
Just stumbled across your channel, a few great other channels out there I won’t mention names tho lol, but your channel is in a league on its own, the machinery and the size of planters and everything else is awesome, I reckon U could be great at making this better than what’s around, u have the character, so who’s up for Mike to do more videos? Like atleast 2 or 3 a week?.. now that’s if he has time and wants to feed us all with more videos,, keep it up mike, u have something here that can be huge on YT.. Cheers from Australia
Thanks Bill!
Killer combo!
That's a absolute beast of a sprayer. Drift and boom stability looked pretty good considering the forward speed.
Yeah, but we can't lift one side or the other.. The booms aren't designed that way.. Only all or nothing 🤦♂️
Mike Mitchell did you order the field sprayer? Because the option, is usually optional. Same with the auto-shutdown feature. Either he doesn't have it, or it's off.
I have same problems in Europe with US equipment😀
Gotta hate it when you go to undo a nut only to find it's in imperial, hah!
@@frankeinfishAgree!! Always a bloody imperial in stuff with metrics! ahah
Sweet Mike, good luck with the season, seeding is almost all go in Australia here
Thanks good sir! 🙂
lol I love that you have a stuck-list 🤣
R
Nice machine Mike , hopefully it works well for you 👍👍
I hope so too!
Love that sprayer
By god i love these 930, we have a couple of old ones and 3 similar to yours. Maybe the best tractors we have bought
That's cool!
Mike Mitchell whats the reasoning for you buying a sprayer that you pull vs a self going one?
@@ronkeking97 I don't know of any self propelled ones that carry 3000+ gallons.
Great video Mike awesome looking sprayer
Thanks Kevin!
That's a pretty slick rig!! Hope all is well buddy!
Thanks Ron!
Dixon might have the connectors you need they make fire nozzles, adapters and real fire hoses.
That’s about 1.86 million teaspoons in a tank load. Not to shabby. Lol
Keep up the great vids Mike! Makes me proud to call Saskatchewan my home. (P.S. I have a 1-A and 30+ year experience if you’re needing an extra hand this spring.... lol)
I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again. It amazes me how massive a lot of farming equipment is. You see these machines next to semi trucks and they make them look small.
Mike I like that sprayer! I’m seriously thinking about one for my farm. That would save me money on labor and time and time is money.
That's true... But don't make that decision yet 😬 because this sprayer has something it has to prove on our farm here first, atleast in my books
Thanks Mike!!
Thanks Jeff!
Good looking outfit! Thanks for sharing from southeast Georgia!!
What part of southeast ga do u live in
Thanks Bobby! 🙂
We need more videos please Mike! We don't see machinery that big very often here in the UK.. awesome vids, just need more!
Got it!
@@mikemitchell2554 Cheers!! Don't forget, we're all suffering in isolation here!!🤣 Big toys brightens our days.. Stay safe
😂 Right! 🤦♂️
I should be just pumping out vids!
@@mikemitchell2554 Obviously i know you've got the day job to do.. priorities and all that, but no harm in asking nicely!🤣 And if you ever find yourself in Yorkshire (england), i'll get you a cold one in return.. can't say fairer than that!
@@mikemitchell2554 hell yeah u should, narration is golden 💯
I like that duck tape mirror job 👌 lol
Ha! 😂 Thanks man, I can't hide anything from you guys 😂 🤷♂️
Drop my phone in One hell of a rig. Love your equipment That is one big wide open country Beautiful
Thanks Mike!
the best boom we have on european market , got one for 13 year firts repare this year
That's awesome!
Hello Mike! Impressive and informative video - thanks! The tractor and sprayer are a high performance combination and productive at 12.5 mph with the big boom. Curious - what are some major weed species you need to control and are you applying a burn down and residual herbicide mix? Thanks much - Doug in Iowa 👍. PS: Hope you are not the loser in this year’s “stuck kitty”!
Hahah Thanks Doug! Kochia, Hawks Beard, Russian Thistle and Canada Thistle are some of our worse weeds here.. 😬
Hey mike nice beard! Oh and sprayer/tractor
Ha! 😂 🤷♂️ It would never compare to yours Brian, let's be honest here 😂
And thanks! 🙂
Very interesting. Great looking spray pattern.
Impressive equipments
That is one large sprayer. Awesome video. Thanks mike!
Thanks Andy!
Hi mike that is one hell of a sprayer
Thanks! 🙂
Great video. Thumbs up
Thank you
These machines are some of the biggest and most expensive in the farming industry. My question is what is your annual budget for all these things are they bought or leased or do the big companies give them for free for real condition testing?
hahaha stuck list, im going to implement that into my lawn care business, oh boy my employee ashton gonna learn real quick to weedwip them wet spots
😂 😂
I loaded up 320 acres!!! That kicks ass mike.
Haha thanks Lane!
Thanks for sharing your new machine hitting the field!~ That thing looks gynormous!
I kinda expected you to lay down and get a close up of the spray pattern when he was coming at you on the headlands! But I suppose its still a little cool yet for a shower!
It is! And I may be a single man again if I do 🤷♂️🤪
Haha Ashtyn hates that video of the spray plane.. Haha
@@mikemitchell2554 Yeah now don't go and do that, treat her well and behave!
As for the video I think that's one of the best and played a big part in me subscribing! :) Gotta love it!
Great video mike. So how many times have you had to clean the bathroom. Good job throwing an eh in there
Haha so far, none! And I hope to keep it that way!
In Algeria, we spray the axial in which we put fertilizers and pesticides
I like the traditional sprayers less of a tire impact on the ground
bit more of a rig than my Case 2290 and Flexi-coil system 62!
Just alittle bit tho 😂
Very nice good luck
Thanks!
old 20meter 2200l trailed Amazone here fantastic booms so steady downside parts are very spendy
That Amazone Sprayer is cool as shit!! i wish i lived closer bro! id totally love to work for your guyz!! be a dream job!🤘🤣💯😎
Haha thanks Matt! 🙂
@@mikemitchell2554 No prob man! We all enjoy watchin your videos...seeing the big machines in action!👍 so keep posting vids man!!💯🤘🤘
Hey Mike I watched your last video it was great 👍... are you keeping the case sprayers aswell? I hope you like the Amazone! Here in Ontario we are just starting tillage on our farm and hope to start planting corn tomorrow all the best I hope u have a great spring
Hey we kept the Case too! I hope so too, but they aren't getting off the best start 😬
@@mikemitchell2554 if you replace them, take a look at Agrifac they are fast as fuck in the field
@@lanteg4316
They're not getting a good name in west Aus
Very big and heavy
They don't float like a tug along
Lots of electrical issues and zero manufacturer support
A few getting around but they're trying to off load them
Gold acres John deer and Miller are the most common here for self propelled
Sonic and hydraboom are the most common tug along
Mafe locally
160ft booms
Nice video
Hi Mike! Cool Video! We also run an amazone sprayer at our farm in Germany.
Where is your farm located?
Will you do a video where you show the farm and all your machines?
Best regards form Germany :)
Hey there good sir! 🙂 That's awesome, i may have questions for you! What type you run?
c000000RN Mike’s family farm is south of Swift Current, Saskatchewan, Canada. They farm approx 40,000 acres.
Got to love an amazone! Ours runs beautifullly even at high speed, yours is like ours but on asteroids hahaha
Are you spraying burndown on there Mike?
Pre - preburn down 😂.. A product that goes down prior to the burn down
That hitch your talking about comes from power pin in Fort quappel Saskatchewan
🤔 Intresting!
Great to see the whole unit in action, the lack of guidance given the pandemic must be terribly irritating.On a side note I found it rather amusing that your trucks mirror is held on with duct tape while chasing what must be a half million dollars worth of iron through the field, the visual irony is priceless:) As always an excellent video, can't wait to see more stuff and I will prob my break my patron cherry with your channel soon
Haha I can't hide anything from you guys! 😂
Thanks, I know right? It's all about our priorities!
Haha that's awesome, I don't think you ld be disappointed
I was just wondering what you were spraying the field for? As it doesn't appear to have a crop growing in it yet.
It’s a “burn off” pass before seeding. Roundup spray for small weeds just starting to come up.
thats a big sprayer
Cracking bit of kit that Mike. Did it make the 320acres you planned?
What length are the booms? It's a nice looking sprayer
Thanks good sir, 40m or 131ft or something
Have you seen their Video Ehen they put a beer Glas in the outer boom too demonstrate the stability
I did! I saw that..
Great job!!! What are you spraying on there mike?
It's a Valtera, a pre emergent for lentils
Thanks!
No worry's there . You are running the best non self propelled sprayer .
Thanks! I hope so, we got a alot of learning to do here..
@@mikemitchell2554 . that's beauty of Amazon's machines. There's not a lot you can do wrong
Good video mike, thanks for taking the time. What are you spraying here? Will you guys drill straight into that or run some kind of cultivator over it first? The stuck list thing is a great idea btw!
Once it's sprayed, we drill right into it.. We practice "No Till" up here
How wide is the boom on that
131 or something it's 40m (metrc) 🤦♂️ haha
Nice european machinery 👍🏼
Haha! Thanks good sir
Close encounters of the boom kind.😂
Haha
that is a real good sprayer mike!! pretty much the best money can by. how wide of a boom? im not a thumb and fot guy so in meters?
It's 131ft I do believe!
@@mikemitchell2554 man u just answered in those dang fots to mess with me 😂 but i did see the 40 meters in another post and that i actually know haha. make more vids mike!
Haha I am trying!
@@danielkacko7616 Not to be that guy but it's 'metres'. You can't confuse people like that 😂.
@@frankeinfish also not a English native guy 😂
What an awesome monster!
Just wonder why you have fence lines in the middle of a prairie?
Oh there's lots of fence lines, we still have some amd neighbors who have cows have some.
@@mikemitchell2554 so the 930 pulls it ok?
It does, or it seem to so far!
Nigel Gribble That hopefully keeps “Trump” out of Canada because he is “Not Smart Enough” to know how to climb through a barb wire fence.🤣😂
Are duals necessary?? Coz for spraying when crops are outta the ground that a wide footprint
For burn off yes.. Other than that no
You should put a central tire inflation system on the Amazon. Alot of weight with a 3600 gal tank.
🤔 I don't think that's an option
Of course it’s an option you can hook up a compressor to a wheelbarrow tire if you wanted to.
11:30 it would be just my luck I would get stuck and he come up behind and wipe the boom out on the back of the pickup.
Ha! I didn't even think of that! But that would be my luck! 😂 🤷♂️
Mike what is the advantage of this type of sprayer offer the self propelled that you run
2 for 1 price, utilize the tractors during spraying season, and just the massive capacity and being able to cover around 960ac per tank on burn off..
I was gonna ask the same/similar questions. SO thanks for asking Dallas! And thanks Mike for answering!
Did u get rid of the 4440
What made you go pull type instead of getting more self propelled?
2 for 1 in price and more productive ok paper.. But, we ll see!
Mike Mitchell thank you for the answer. I think you made the smart choice 😉
You cant raise the tips individual either?? We run a ux4200 and ux5200. But on both you can raise them individual.
Crazy Amazon didn't send tech support for your first use/load of their equipment, doesn't bode well for future support in my opinion. Have they cashed your cheque yet, if not maybe time to put it on hold until you get some customer service?
Hey Mike, isn' t iT a problem that european stuff in Canada ( and North america) ? All of iT is Metric, and in europe there are other standards for equipement. And then I forget when you' ve got breakdowns, pieces?? Are they in stock at Your dealer?
Where does mark vanderwel stand on the stuck list? He’s a friend of mine
So far he hasnt been stuck! But there's lots of season left! 😂
Mike Mitchell oh that’s good, yes that is true, I see you already had a issue with the sprayer. Witch sucks
What chemicals? What are the chemicals for?
How wide is that sprayer
The spray seems kinda fine to me. Maybe bigger or courser nozzles? Great vid Mike where the hell you been? Lol
That is exactly our feeling, we are trying to get the spray courser.. But it's actually not working that well in that area, it's more complicated than we thought
Why do you not use the 720? We in Germany run with our jd 6830 a 18500 Liter slury tanker easy at 8 mph.
We were using the 720 on the 82ft roller but it is giving troubles.. The 720 - at least ours, has more power than cooling.. 😬
@@mikemitchell2554 I now that problem, a friend of me has a tuned 718 fendt with 220 HP. He installed a clean fix cooler, that bring the engine temperature 6°C cooler. But I think your problem is you has very long fields with les turning time and les time too cool down, in ower space a fiel ends max. at 600m am than its a big field😂. My tip search on the back op market, the 722 has in my infomercials a bigger cooler, probably you can upgrade it.
uh what are you spraying that you're not worried about getting sprayed on?
Looks like a STORZ fitting. I know you can get them by IP thread. I believe I saw them at Pollard water. $$$$$$$ Not cheap
You are correct.
why dont you use the suction on the compute (you will need to use the suction hose), then it will automaticly stop the suction when you have the amount of water you set it to.
That's 4in..and I don't have that, also I can push it on faster
It would be easier with just a lever for the boom.
Forgot the front weight 🤦♂️
Gosh!! 🤦♂️🤷♂️😂
WFR is a retailer or a machine shop would help get the right fitting
Who? 🤔
There a fire department supply warehouse or a Rocky Mountain Phoenix dealer
Got it! Thanks
Hei , i m from europe , what do you spray there , i can t figure it out...
I.S. They’re spraying any weeds prior to spring seeding. We use the “No-till” system of seeding/planting, so We don’t plough, cultivate or dress our fields over here except for using the odd Protill (honestly the greatest thing since sliced bread) which is a high speed low impact disc we use mostly for smoothing our sprayer ruts, or in the event of a really bad hail year to knock over any standing crop. Hahaha. So without doing field work we use what we call pre-burn or pre-burndown which gives us a good start to the crop year for weed/pest/fungal management, but mostly weeds in my part of #Ridernation! Keep up the awesome videos Mike!
@@Saskatchewan_IH_Farmer great , here in europe we strugle with a hars drought , on 15 liters of rain on squere meter since december ...
what are you spraying?herbicide?
Yes.. Pre emergent for lentils
What' on the sprayer? Roundup?
Valtera.. It's a pre -emergent in front of lentils.. But, yes, we ll be back with roundup and other Chemicals later
How much do y’all farm?
Around 40k
Metric Master Race
I hate metric! 😂 🤦♂️
@@mikemitchell2554 :D i was two times near Edmonton on a Farm for Farmwork, and it was completely confused to have the yield in Bushel per Acre... in Germany we have Tones per Hektar. 1 Ton is 1000kg and 1 Hektar is 10000 m² :D
🤔 😂
Mike You have so many Acres you should have thought about getting a BIGGER Sprayer and Stop messin with that little one 👍😂😂😂
yes the hardi 20 kubikmeter xtreem hectaremaster! this i made up but im pretty sure Mike's about to google it now 😅
😂 😂 I am trying! 🤔🤪
That Fendt is a beast.
Haha thanks!
Horsch is the best!
My god dam rain water tank is not much bigger than that haha
What isc sparay?
What?
There’s no amazone guy here sooo.... I don’t know! Lol! Wouldn’t it be impressive if they had that fitting all ready for you to go! Hey we know he needs a banjo cam lock, let’s get it right for him! 20 inch nozzle spacing? That’s strange the wings don’t have much travel. Think their self propelled is the same? I don’t know how you stay so calm with so much work going on. I’d have a stroke. Funny how the European sprayers never have stainless tanks.
Right?! How was this an oversight? Also, the Software from Metric to US doesn't match up, Amazone said they did the calculations wrong and it may be another year before they get to right!! 😳🤦♂️
Yes 20in I believe.. You also can't lift one boom at a time 🤦♂️
that sprayer connect via ISO Bus?
Yes.. And run through a Top Con monitor
To nie lepiej byłoby kupić samojezdna Pume?
160ft boom???
