I can sympathize with you we try to do as much of our own as we can. Our co-op charges in the ballpark of $120/hr which isn't bad on bigger fields but I figured it to almost $15/acre on small patches and we can pick the chemicals instead of either getting common program they push or waiting until they get caught up so they can switch. I can do it for $4/acre with the pull type. I had a 3pt. for a while and even with big enough tractors the pull is much nicer to get hooked and unhooked from and not carrying the weight on the tractor is better in hills IMO. We bought our 750 gal. Top Air with a hyd. fold 45' boom for $1800 in good shape, the only change we made was putting a gear drive Hypro pump on in place of the Ace belt drive. The pump is mounted on the sprayer with a PTO shaft running to the tractor, much nicer than the pump hanging off the tractor. I have seen perfectly usable small pull sprayers on sales around here for $500 and under I'm not sure what you can find in your area but for my money I'd go with a pull type over a mounted any day.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
