Golf course's use it a lot. On top of GPS pinpoint spraying. Greens keeper misses a section of golf turf with a crucial spray its unemployment time.

Pretty common around here. Most guys don’t have the acreage to justify the “newer” equipment.

Lot of foam used around here. Our average field size here is maybe 30-40 acres with many much smaller. The newer custom rigs are now replacing many of the older units and they have GPS. A few years ago one could tell the unit was not set up right with the GPS. There was a perfectly straight and width path down the field at every turn. I hope they got that setup right before they did too many acres.

I use foam for my food plots. Keeps me from missing a streak or over spraying.

Yes I use it. Spra Coupe 4650, 80’ booms. I farm 900 acres , with field sizes averaging 25-30 acres. I can do a really nice job with this rig. Raven controller, and a 5 section boom shutoff. 400 gallon tank. Run one enough, and foam marker can be pretty dang precise!

On the Google it looks like its $50 + a gallon

Is that the real world price?

1 quart of align ( Helena product ) per 25 gallons of water . This will do about 300-350 acres in our sprayer, depending on how much foam you set on the dial to put out. Just need it on the ends when running rows. Leave it on all the time during burn down. I will check price tomorrow. But a gallon goes a long way!
