Massey Ferguson presents at Expointer 2019 its MF 9330 (3.000l), 200 hp, and MF 8125 (2.500l), 170 hp sprayers, which offer excellent stability for distribution and deposition of drops and are up to 50% more economical than other equipment in its category. The agricultural fair takes place from August 24th to September 1st, at the Assis Brasil Exhibition Park, at km 13 of BR 116, in Esteio, a municipality in the Metropolitan region of Porto Alegre (RS). 

Launched this year, the MF 9330 sprayer arrives to meet Brazilian farmers' demand for a robust and versatile machine. “Every feature of the new equipment has been designed, tried and tested to deliver the best performance in the most varied terrain, topography and use conditions”, highlights Fernando Petroli, marketing supervisor for the sprayer product at AGCO South America, the company that owns the Massey Ferguson brand.

Available in grain and sugarcane versions, the main difference of the MF 9330 sprayer is the spray bar – 24 or 30 meters – designed for current field challenges. One of the new features is the nozzle and application nozzle holder protected within the bar structure. The disarming of the multidirectional tip is another benefit that protects the structure of the entire bar in case of any impacts at the ends of the bar. The improvements also allow for better performance in field operations and longer equipment life. This way, the machine has better performance and a longer useful life.

The MF 8125 sprayer was specially designed to offer versatility, high daily productivity, low fuel consumption, high traction capacity, flexible chassis, safety and operational comfort. Also available in sugarcane and grain versions, the equipment combines low operating weight, independent axles and 4x4 crossed hydrostatic transmission, allowing the machine to work in the most diverse soil and topography conditions, and features a spray controller. touch screen and spray pump control. 

Both sprayers offer blue LED lights that improve visibility during nighttime applications. Furthermore, the bar's pivot points with self-lubricating bushings increase the product's longevity.  

Half-bar operation, available in the 24 meter version, is approved. The equipment offers the possibility of manual or automatic leveling of the bars in two levels – as a result, the spraying carried out by the MF 9330 is more uniform and of better quality.

Another important feature is the improvement in the response time when starting and stopping the spray sections to 0,08 seconds, thus avoiding the waste of pesticides.

Finally, the cabin offers generous, functional and ergonomic space, with low noise and vibration levels, which reduces fatigue levels, even after a few hours of operation.
