    What I would love to find is a 65 ft colter system that I could put ammonia down at 15 in spacing and go about 8 mph.

      Understand the Liberals have changed the small business threshold from 10-15 million to 10-50 million. Used to be that by the time assets of a corp reached 15 million small business allowance was completely gone. Now it will start being reduced after 10 million and gone at 50. If I read things right.

        In a perfect world the disks would put the nh3 8 inches deep.
        Salford 2100 series disk and shank units seem to be close to ideal


        Disks,
        - ground too hard, dry, wont go in
        - too much straw, wont go in
        - too many bearings
        - the faster you go the more disk angle or weight you need to keep them in the ground

        Only solution is narrow knife opener,
        - pressurized system for consistency and early morning starts, cold weather applications ( ie snow on the ground)
        - big tanks
        - fall is the only time to apply nh3 or risk supply, weather, and price issues

          What you want to do SF3 sounds appealing.
          There have been a few attempts at coulter applicators for at least 30 yrs.
          I don't see any big success there with NH3.
          Big investment for a prototype unit.

                  Local Fert Nh3 dealer had a disc unit set up.. tried it spring and fall after a couple of years he switched it over to liquid and sold it to a local customer... didn't last long until it was down the road.. "too many bearings and disk wear"

                  not all good ideas work in real life..

                      Yea talked to a buddy who was the soil pro at UofS and he said think about speed and rocks and other things.

                      Start earlier and go with a knife for Sask works every time.
