Selecting the appropriate sprayer truck for your orchard directly affects pest control effectiveness and operational efficiency. The core is to align with the orchard’s planting density and terrain characteristics, prioritizing equipment with a narrow wheelbase, large capacity, and wide spray width. Self-propelled orchard pesticide trucks are the first choice for most large-scale orchards. Their narrow wheelbase design (usually 1.2-1.5 meters) can flexibly navigate between fruit tree rows without scratching branches, making them especially suitable for dense-planted orchards. For larger orchards, ride-on orchard sprayers are more labor-saving—operators can work while sitting throughout the process, reducing physical exertion and increasing daily operation area.
A large-capacity water tank is the foundation for efficient spraying. It is recommended to choose models with a volume of 200-500L to avoid frequent refueling that delays work. Equipped with a corrosion-resistant water tank, it can adapt to various pesticide formulations and extend the service life of the equipment. At the same time, wide spray width performance is crucial. High-quality equipment can achieve a spray width of 8-12 meters, enabling full coverage of fruit trees from top to bottom with fine and uniform droplets, which not only ensures pesticide efficacy but also reduces pesticide waste, especially suitable for three-dimensional spraying of mature fruit trees.
In terms of function selection, it can be flexibly matched according to the orchard scale: small orchards can consider remote-controlled orchard pesticide sprayers, which are more convenient for remote operation and avoid direct contact between operators and pesticides; large-scale orchards recommend self-propelled orchard pesticide trucks, equipped with a 4WD system, which can drive stably even in mountainous orchards with stronger climbing ability. In addition, the adjustable spray boom height function is indispensable, which can adapt to orchards of different tree heights, ensuring uniform application from the crown to the bottom of the trunk.
Finally, attention should be paid to the practicality and after-sales support of the equipment. Prioritize models with a simple and easy-to-operate control panel, which is convenient for farmers to master quickly; equipment equipped with anti-drip nozzles can reduce pesticide waste and soil pollution. At the same time, choose brands with sound after-sales service networks for more convenient subsequent parts replacement and maintenance, ensuring that the sprayer truck serves stably for a long time and provides reliable support for orchard pest control.
