When I went into business for myself, the Victair was a natural choice. It has exceptional coverage (what else do you buy a sprayer for), it's easy to maintain, and using lower HP tractors saves on fuel costs. While in the commercial application business for 35 years, we have sprayed grapes, almonds, tree fruit, citrus, walnuts, and pecans. This sprayer can handle them all. Because of the small droplet technology (50 micron), we can use less water while maintaining coverage and, therefore, less chemicals—usually 30 to 40 percent less. This is the compact sprayer that can really handle the big jobs. It's the best technology on the market. Larry Meisner, Kerman, California H.F. HAUFF COMPANY INC. Preharvest cherry tour in The Dalles Meet at Steve Agidius's orchard, 3437 Doane Road, The Dalles, Oregon, 8 a.m. The tour includes demonstrations of falconry, tree planting, new cherry varieties, and alternative cover crops, and concludes with lunch at the Dave Cooper Orchard.
