A1 Mist Sprayers are the only way to spray herbicides on your pasture and rangeland. A1 Mist Sprayers Resources, Inc. manufactures high and low volume mist blowers that create smaller mist size particles in a 10 foot to 140 foot air stream that stays low to the ground. This provides the best control and uniform spraying coverage... Over, Under and Around Plant Foliage. The mist sprayers' 140 foot spraying range allows you to spray your creek banks, levees, roadside ditches, deep valleys, steep terrain, hard to reach and rocky areas using 1/10th the water and significantly less chemical.  Plus, there are no booms to break!

Most users effectively spray 35 to 52 acres with a 55-gallon Heavy Duty Mist Blower. 

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations says, “For applying herbicides and silvicides, the mist blower is the most fantastic plant killer known. For most brush and forest management operations mist blowers in the 5 to 12 h.p. sizes are most applicable.” Most users effectively spray 35 to 52 acres with a 55-gallon Heavy Duty Mist Blower. You may use lower herbicide concentrations because many herbicides are effective at concentrations lower than those recommended on the label, especially when combined with a surfactant. Lower concentrations can decrease risks and costs of herbicide treatments. Lower concentrations can also be equally effective; however, the manufacturer cannot guarantee its effectiveness. Test patches of target weeds to find the herbicide concentration that will work best for your needs. Please note it is illegal to use higher concentrations of herbicide than are specified on the label, but it is allowable to use lower concentrations as long as the label does not prohibit it. In most cases, one herbicide application with an A1 Mist Sprayer will give you excellent weed and brush control results; however, extreme cases may require two or three applications.

The addition of crop oil or other surfactants increases penetration into the plant tissue and reduces evaporation loss and wind drift in pasture and rangeland spraying applications.  Most researchers feel that crop oil may be even more effective and 100% better for the Environment than diesel fuel.  A1 Mist Sprayers Resources, Inc. recommends using crop oil rather than diesel fuel. Crop oil amounts should be limited to 1-2 pints per acre.  ALWAYS FOLLOW THE SUPPLIERS RECOMMENDED APPLICATION RATES.

Researchers have found that grass production could be increased 40% to 300% at an annual cost of approximately $1.80 per acre or less with Mist Sprayer applications.
