CABBAGE
The ESS half rate application required the same number of treatments but it used half as much material to provide the same level of control.

We have reduced our pesticide rates by 50–66%.
“It costs $300 per acre for chemicals to spray cabbage — so we are really able to cut costs.”

The ESS sprayer is a very well built machine. In the past three years we have had no problems other than replacing one gauge. There is very little maintenance except for general cleaning. It works very well with all our crops such as lettuce, peppers, tomatoes, cabbage and spinach.
Since we have been using the ESS sprayer we have been steadily reducing our spray bills per acre each year. The biggest advantage we have seen is the reduced disease pressure and increased crop quality in all our vegetables. We spend less time in the field spraying due to less fill-up time because of the low volume (gpa) rates per acre.

ONIONS
We used Bravo, Manzates and Diathanes on our onions & cabbage. We have saved 25–30% on our pesticides and improved our disease control and bug kill.

PEPPERS
We used ten times less water and get better coverage. We saved enough on chemicals to pay for the sprayer in four months.

Papen Farms has been using an ESS sprayer since 1995.
In 2003 we bought our second sprayer.
The advantages of the ESS sprayer are:
- Time saved by not having to haul large amounts of water.
- Getting better coverage.
- Getting better insect control.
- Getting over the fields in one-third the time of conventional sprayer

The highest percentage of leaf area coverage was observed on the underside of leaves treated with the ESS Sprayer.

I keep my nozzles about 12 inches above the canopy facing forward and vine kill is excellent.

Air assist & electrostatic sprayers achieve excellent coverage. ESS was the most effective for both the 1995 & 1996 season trials.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH
Could we demonstrate a difference between ESS & hydraulic sprayers in terms of better foliage & fruit disease control & higher marketable yields?
"Yes, and significant in most cases."
Dr. Thomas Zitter
Cornell University

The ESS is an excellent piece of equipment [ESS Sprayer Model 350]. You get great coverage and save time by not having to make so many trips to fill up your tank because you spray less gallons per acre.
You also spend less time overall spraying your crops and reduce your spraying costs. It works well on all our crops, i.e. Pumpkins, sweet corn, tomatoes, peppers, summer squash and winter squash. No problems have occurred with nozzle clogging.
I highly recommend this piece of equipment.
