I lost dad a couple weeks ago at almost 89. He was a farmer his entire life but loved flying and owned and operated a spraying business for 40 years. Thanks to ag solutions for helping give him an ending he would’ve loved. Rip dad love you. 🙏

A long night of fighting fire down at beaver but at least got the upper hand on it though. Lots of prayers to all that lost so much🙏. Sad going past some house completely engulfed in flames and nothing could be done to stop it the way the wind was blowing.

This new 1205 is impressive. With the floaters it hardly even moves when hitting deep sprinkler tracks compared to my other one with duals. A lot heavier built then the 1194 I had before this one.

Got this new 1725C with exact rate and when my tanks get below 125 gal in each side I loose prime every time I turn around. Deere hasn’t really got an answer so far. Anyone have any ideas? They definitely have the pump mounted to high in my opinion.

Running across the road from a 50K head feedyard last night and the dust is getting awful with no wind. At times couldn’t see a few feet and semis we’re having trouble seeing the road. Needing rain in this area bad.
