Hardcastle Ag stays on top of
things with our own ento-
mologists who carefully scout
crops and recommend only
what you need. When and
where you need it.
We like to think - and folks
often tell us - that we're first
in agricultural spraying.
A "First and Only" is SATLOC.
It's a satellite guidance system
in our aircraft which provides
precision parallel tracking,
swath marking and uniform
crop coverage. With it, we can
provide you with a computer
print-out of each field show-
ing exactly where the plane
has flown and sprayed.
SATLOC is the most effective
method ever developed for
aerial application and it's
affordable for your crops.
