NTB 12 and NTB 16: ideal for liquid nitrogen applications
The Hagie NTB 12 (12-row, .8 meter/30-inch) and NTB 16 (16-row, .8 meter/30-inch) units allow liquid nitrogen applications in corn ground, pre- and post-emergence. When combined with a Hagie STS class sprayer tractor, the NTB 12 or NTB 16 are capable of side-dressing liquid nitrogen into corn 1.8 meters (6 feet) tall at speeds up to 29 kilometers per hour (18 miles per hour) without causing serious damage to the stock, helping to prevent contamination to ground water and runoff. Heavy-duty liquid Injection coulters inject the nitrogen directly into the ground rather than dribbling or spraying onto the surface, helping reduce volatile loss. Injection depth is maintained with a three-section, ground-contour floating toolbar that hugs uneven terrain. When the STS sprayer tractor is equipped with the optional hydraulically driven side-fill, the sprayer can load itself in under 5 minutes. Both NTB units fold for transport to 3.6-meter (143-inch) and travel at road speeds up to 48 kilometers per hour (30 miles per hour).
