Equipment Technologies has taken home the “Spraying

Spraying equipment was one of 13 product categories recognized at
the awards luncheon. The Product of the Year awards are chosen by popular vote
among No-Till Farmer readers. Equipment Technologies was recognized in front of the 1150-plus
attendees at the No-Till Conference. Additionally, the Apache was recognized in
the No-Till Farmer Winter 2013 issue
of No-Till Farmer’s Conservation Tillage
Guide.
“This is such an accomplishment for these companies to be
honored by our readers as No-Till Products of the Year. It says something when
no-tillers recognize a product but it says a great deal when products are
honored in consecutive years. Equipment Technologies should feel proud to
receive such national recognition three years in a row,” says Darrell Bruggink,
executive editor and publisher of No-Till
Farmer.
In 2010 and 2011, the Apache was recognized as the
Application Equipment Product of the Year winner based on the 20 Series Apache
sprayers in 2011 and the AS715 model in 2010.
According to CEO of Equipment Technologies, Matt Hays,
“Sprayers are a critical part of any no-tillers’ operation. To have the readers
of No-Till Farmer validate for a third year in a row the Apache self-propelled
sprayer as Application Equipment Product of the Year is a tremendous honor.
This award comes from the diligent efforts of our employees and dealers, as
well as listening to our customers to ensure we produce the very best
application product possible.”
During the summer of 2012, product nominations for each category
were sent out to No-Till Farmer readers and agriculture companies, and the
voting for category winners started in September and ended on November 9, 2012.
2013 represents the eighth year for the annual No-Till Product
of the Year awards program offered at the National No-Tillage Conference.
