Along the history of agriculture, farmers have been obsessed by crop protection. Foreseeing or healing illnesses, keeping pests away, suppressing bad weeds... A real preventive war that is increasingly becoming more and more important. Nowadays, the globalisation and the climate change have even turned more vulnerable our crops. So, we must work furthermore in crop protection.

Luckily, we have great-quality phytosanitary treatments available: pesticides, weedkillers and all sort of products to prevent the crops from getting ill. As important as to count on these chemicals is to have suitable machines available to apply them in an effective way and, at the same time, to reduce the costs of keeping our agriculture healthy and protected. A good example of this sort of machines is the mistblower, a machine which has become essential to do these tasks.


Agricultural machinery which makes you save money in the treatments


The machinery we use to protect our crops constitute one of the key factors in the success of the farms and in the achievement of good harvests. They must be always updated machines, accurately calibrated and adapted to the crop and land plot to be treated. In any case. whatever machine you choose, you must look for one which meets these requirements:

  • Reduction of the labour time. The quality machines are faster and more powerful, doing more job in lesser time, which helps to save efforts and money too.
  • Reduction of the consumption. If you reduce the labour hours, you lower immediately the consumption of tractor's and implements' fuel, lubricant and parts.  
  • Perfect dosage. With the suitable agricultural machinery, you will be able to dose most accurately the treatments, which will make you save phytosanitary product. To dose means to apply the correct proportion, because it does not require the same amount of product a plant which is sprouting as another which has reached its higher vegetal growth. If you adjust properly the dose, you reduce the consumption of product and this implies saving money.
  • Focused treatments. With the proper machines, you will be able to treat in a highly focused way, lessening the drift and the evaporation and achieving a homogeneous treatment for the plants. In this way, you will achieve better performances of the chemicals and you will avoid unnecessary expenses.  Moreover, your harvests will improve, because the cures will be much more effective.


Mistblowers, essential for the crops' protection


The agricultural mistblowers, like those offered by Teyme, are machines which meet these requirements and therefore they are essential pieces in the crops' protection. They will help you to do the treatments with full effectiveness and moreover they will help you to reduce the expenses of your activity, i.e., to save money.

Teyme mistblowers distinguish themselves for its latest generation technology and for its toughness. All of them respond to the same principle: generating a pressure which breaks the phytosanitary product into tiny drops-between 100 and 400 microns- , dissolved in water and producing afterwards a big stream of air, which, generated by the impeller, carries all these drop throughout the most hidden coin of your fruit tree plantation. It is what is called a hydropneumatic sprayer and is specially thought to reduce the drift and treat in a very focused way.

In Teyme you can choose among a large range of items, which include machines adapted to all sort of cultures, lands and plantation frames, from the big trailed machines, which distinguish themselves for its big perfornance to the lift-mounted mistblower or to those thought to treat four sides at the same time. All of them offer advanced solutions so that your strategies and practices for crops' protection could complement important savings and bigger productivity.
