Self-Propelled Sprayer Ride’n’Drive
They’re back! It has been many years since Canada’s Outdoor
Farm Show put self-propelled sprayers to the test as one of its
major field demonstrations. For the 2016 version, the Canada’s
Outdoor Farm Show team and participating sprayer manufacturers
want to keep the sprayer action going all day long. From 10:00am
to 3:00pm each day, farmers and custom operators are invited to
test several self-propelled sprayers in the same field conditions one
after another. A special large scale ride’n’drive test track in the
Southwest Demo Field will have obstacles for testing boom stability,
turning and other features.
Small LoaderTractor Ride’n’Drive
Livestock and grain farmers alike know the value of having a
handy small horse power front end loader tractor around the farm
yard to tackle all kinds of tasks.This tractor ride’n’drive will focus
on tractors with engines in the range of 85HP or less. The Canada’s
Outdoor Farm Show team has designed the ride’n’drive zone
with stations to put these small yet mighty tractors through their
paces whether by switching attachments or digging into a mulch
pile. Multiple tractor manufacturers will be available to test and
compare before deciding on the next addition to the farm fleet.This
