The Results are in: 10-15% Greater Yield!

Side-Dress Liquid Manure With Hard Hose Row Crops During The Growing Season

Soybean and corn crops harvested this year that have been side-dressed with manure had a 10 to 15% yield increase.

Cadman has taken a concept brought forward by the Alig brothers of Ohio to design, build and market a new Continuous Manure Applicator (CMA) which is engineered to apply liquid manure via side-dress to row crops such as corn in fields as long as a ½ mile.

The Alig brothers brought their patent-pending concept and four years of data collected by Ohio State University to Cadman where they used an example of corn side-dressed with liquid manure once the corn was in the ground. The data concluded that the best time to apply manure is when the corn reaches between 3 to 4 feet in height.

One: Pull Out Cycle

The tractor pulls the injector with the patented CMA swivel arm. The arm pulls out the 5.3” I.D. hard hose away from the CMA and incorporates in 30’ width rows.

When the tractor gets to the opposite end of the field (up to 1/2 a mile). the tractor turns 180o and comes back down the field, incorporating another 30’ strip. When the tractor turns, the swing arm turns to the side of the tool-bar, which keeps the hose in the same row it was pulled out on.

The tractor returns at the same speed it is pulled out. Tractor ground speed on the return trip is synchronized by coordination between the CMA and the injector operators.

The towable CMA reel is controlled by the operator in the tow tractor. While the injection tractor is completing its return trip, the CMA reel operator moves forward 60’ in order to start another pass.
