I gave up on roller pumps long ago. A belt driven Ace PTO centrifugal pump will give you all the pressure and volume you need plus some. Costs more than a roller but abrasive herbicides wont wear it nearly as bad and it will last longer than a roller pump. You will want to replumb to put in a bypass valve in place of the relief valve it might have on it now. I used to pull a 400 gallon sprayer with a 30 foot boom with an SC Case. Put many,many acres through it. I did have to stay away from softer wet spots. Pulling a stuck tractor out of the mud backwards with a full sprayer attached is near impossible without the sprayer jacknifing. On my sprayer i mounted the Ace pump on the sprayer and ran a PTO shaft to it but you could put the pump straight on the tractor PTO and run your hoses to it if you want. It's just personal preference.
