Frostbuster 501
Frostbuster
When it comes to protecting your crops against night frost, and improving fruit set and pollination, the Frostbuster 501 is in a class by itself. It is effective during radiation- and wind frost, offering protection where no water is available or in orchards that cannot be protected by water. The Agrofrost Frostbuster 501 is trailed through the rows while the powerful fan, driven by the tractor PTO, pushes out heated air on either side of the machine.
