Increase Your Profits By Reducing The
Temperature In Your Poultry House.
Cooling
poultry in hot
weather by
fogging or
misting is
recognized as
being the most
effective means
for reducing
stress, thereby
increasing the
efficiency of
feed conversion and reducing mortality. By far the
most economical method to accomplish cooling in
the poultry house is the use of fogger nozzles.
RC Cooling Nozzles are designed to spray a fine
—‘ &yi - m j sl i ns i(je the poultry house, when used with fans
and booster pumps the fine mist will evaporate in the air before it reaches the llooi.
If you want to reduce the temperature in the poultry house, if you want to save your birds there is
nothing on the market today that will give you the total effect that you need to save your birds!
There is no comparison between the RC-4025-2 Fogger Nozzle
and any other means of cooling.
WE GUARANTEE THAT!

The perfect tool for ridge
and minimum tili
The Fuerst harrow cleans ridge tops, creating
excellent seedbed. Unique “Spreading Action”®
tines hug the soil at faster speeds to shred and
evenly spread no-till stalks in the spring.
Dozens of uses:
The harrow used behind a disc or cultivator, in
corporates herbicides in one pass. Used alone,
it covers broadcasted seed, renovates, main
tains pastures and more.
The harrow/cart (an optional harrow carrier as
shown) follows tight turns, has folding wings for
easy transport. Harrow and cart are available in
16 to 42 ft. widths.
“I believe the harrow
works as good as a stalk
shredder: it lifts and
shatters the stalks and.
yet doesn’t tear up the
ground.”
