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.
