Background
Introduction to Central Wheatbelt Imports
The re-emergence of the Bfs spray nozzles into Western Australia came about after the chance meeting by Yorkrakine Farm Supplies Director, Clifford Nock with the sales manager of Billericay Farm Supplies Richard Goddard. Clifford was so impressed by Richards reasons that every farmer should be using these nozzles that he put a set on his own Sonic boom spray.
It was apparent by the dramatic reduction in drift that these nozzles provided that they would soon become an important tool in modern day farming. Through Clifford’s small chemical retail business on his farm at Yorkrakine, Nozzle sales grew rapidly. Some typical responses from new clients have been, just fantastic, tremendous, awesome job, I didn’t realize how much drift I put up with, it makes spraying so much safer.
The nozzles were invented in the UK by Anthony Cecil, who out of shear hard work built up a little spraying business out of Billericay. He developed the nozzle in his own workshop so as to reduce drift and to expand his spraying day window. He showed other large spray nozzle manufacturers his nozzle but they all laughed at him. Since then they have been trying to emulate his nozzle but without success. So successful was his nozzle that is still manufactured to exacting standards in the UK, that they now command in excess of 80% of the UK and Canadian air induction nozzle sales.
Clifford felt that the market was too large to service from Yorkrakine, so he asked his recently retired from farming and former neighbour and cousin, Craig Gorfin to handle the sales of nozzles by setting up a new company, Central Wheatbelt Imports. They are now still retailing through Yorkrakine but the full range of nozzles is now available online to allow farmers across Australia access to these nozzles that will make every time they spray a safer time.
Craig Gorfin’s many years of operating a boom spray running his own farming operation, as well as his attendance at specialist nozzle application workshops to broaden his knowledge, has given him more than enough experience to give you the specialist advice you need in setting up your boom spray with the right nozzle.
Craig is passionate about the” job has to be done right”, and with many people from all walks of life looking at farming and what has been done to the environment in the past, it is more important than ever that we reduce risk. If we can reduce spray drift by more than 75%, just by changing our nozzle selection in our boom spray, that is a very small price for the safety of not only our farm and crops but our neighbours crops and the whole environment.
These nozzles are not just for the broad acre farmer, but are fantastic for the small acreage farmer spraying his fire breaks with his quad bike, right through to the vigneron or orchardist spraying weeds at the base of mature vines or fruit trees.
They are especially good not just for applying herbicides, but for applying fungicide onto cereal crops as well. The small coarse droplets filled with tiny air bubbles penetrate the crop canopy to enable the fungicide to hit the lower leaves were it is needed.
