It is compatible with most inputs and can be used in conventional and organic farming. Xena improves the coverage and retention of agricultural sprays on the plant surface. It is a blend of three nonionic surfactants that increase spreading of applied spray droplets. Upon drying, Xena aids in adhering agrochemicals to the plant surface by forming a thin, transparent film composed of plant-derived polysaccharides, rather than synthetic polymers. Xena is now available in for sale in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin. California state registration is pending. Contact Westbridge Agricultural Products at (800) 876-2767 or www.westbridge.com.

Due to the nature of bearing grease, annual maintenance has previously been needed to ensure that the center pivot rotational movement was not interrupted. With Reinke's patent-pending Maintenance-Free Bearing, the need to do all that work is gone. The Maintenance-Free Bearing is designed to last the lifetime of the system, using the same high-quality specifications of all Reinke's products. The product is available on new Reinke irrigation systems using an 8-inch pivot bearing, but can also be retrofitted onto existing 8-inch Electrogator II center pivots.

The HV-8R22 has proven it picks up more sugarbeets than competitors' machines (leaving a row of black soil), putting more beets in the trucks, increasing beets-per-acre revenue. In addition, the Alloway HV-8R22 requires less tractor power than competitive machines—only a maximum of 275 horespower PTO power. For more information, visit www.allowayag.com.
