High-speed transfer pumps do the work faster, better. Why are grain growers in a major swing to Brea Aqua Am monia from non-solution types of nitrogen? (Rate of change over 26 to 1 in some areas. ) The big answer is big yields and better profits! And better profits result because Brea Aqua handles faster and easier above ground . . . then out-performs other nitrogen carriers below ground. (Up to 20-30 percent in official production tests.) Our fieldside handling, loading and drill application are fully mechanized. Application tanks are refilled with high-speed transfer pumps which cuts loading time. One man keeps a rig rolling and covers more acreage, more quickly, because this liquid fertilizer permits faster ground speeds with less draw bar pull. Brea Aqua provides the long-sought answer to ideal drill ap plication. It soaks nitrogen into the soil and gets young grain oft to a healthy start. Brea Aqua stores exceptionally well in the soil too, and feeds nitrogen to growing grain continuously, over a long period. Talk to us about combining soil preparation with fall injec tion for even greater savings of time and money. Let us give you proof that "no lift, no lug" fertilizing with Brea Aqua Ammonia means bigger grain profits. Just call us and u e'll come out and show you how Brea Aqua solutions can make more money for you. EBffl, f l!ACHiM!CAiS.INC Heppner Lester Wyman, Agent Phone 6-96 19 certified dealer
