    I know y'all don't want to break the bank but we bought a agrispray tank. Granted we got a 150gal tank. The thing I like about it is, it's built like a rock and it does boom and boom less. To me it is the best of both worlds.

    I ended up borrowing a buddy's 60 gallon which worked great for me.

    Need to spray a 10 acre field a 5 acre field and then some small food plots. I have a 15 gallon boomless on the back for the 4wheeler and it does great for the food plots but I need something larger for the fields. Maybe 55 gallon?

    Find one of those 300 gallon hardee pull behinds. Unless you've got a massive tractor those 3pt sprayers can get dangerous if you go too big

    I would think 60 gallons may be enough. Not sure how close your water source is to the fields.

    I would find a 55 gallon sprayer. Set it at 11 gallons per acre rate and cover big field on 2 fill ups. That will be close to 5 mph with blue fan tips. Buy a IBC tote from DHall and fill up as needed, gravity fill. I bought a used one off here last year and have $350 with new stainless pump included. 150 gallon sprayer needs to be on a 75hp or more tractor.

    I don't care for boomless sprayers except when spraying road beds I want to kill saplings 10 yds into the woods.
