CASE IH PIONEER WORK BOOT RACINE, Wis.—Just like Case IH tractors, combines, sprayers and crop production tools, you can find advanced technology in the latest offering from Case IH—the Pioneer work boot. Designed specifically for Case IH with agricultural producers’ needs in mind, this boot provides the ultimate in comfort and safety. Brown, tumbled, full- grain leather houses a composite toe, making the boot light- weight while retaining durability. Attached with Goodyear welt construction, the boot has an electrical hazard outsole with oil and skid resistance. A soft Cambrelle lining leads the way to the porous Ortholite insole, which wicks away moisture, improves air circulation, inhibits odor and fungus growth and provides long-lasting cushioning. Built for comfort, the Pioneer work boot flexes with the first fit, and the blucher lace-to-toe construction adjusts for customized comfort. Visit http://shopcaseih.com. ATOM-JET HILLER TINES The Atom-Jet research and development team has been developing power hiller tines over the past two years as a result of grower interest in hiller tines with higher wearability and extended use. Atom-Jet, which has been in the seeding opener business for over 20 years, was the first company to institute the use of carbide on seeding tools. Since then, the company has continually invested in the development of carbide composition makeup and brazing technology. According to Cotton, they are excited to bring this technology and knowledge to the potato industry. The patent-pending tines have been developed for popular brands such as Struik and Baselier, and Atom-Jet continues to work with producers for the development of tines specific to their own brands of power hillers.

New Products LATEST AND GREATEST BESTWAY RETRIEVER TRANSPORT HITCH HIAWATHA, Kan.—Bestway Inc., a leading specialty agricultural equipment manufacturer, announces the addition of a new model to the rapidly growing Retriever Transport Hitch product line. The new model is engineered for towing large drawn planters and other large implements with two-point or drawbar type hitches. The Retriever Transport Hitch “Wet Kit” model utilizes a semi-tractor’s dual-acting Wet Kit (if so equipped) to provide the hydraulic power to the lift system of the Retriever Transport Hitch. The Retriever’s exclusive design allows switching from a CAT III, two-point hitch, to a CAT II in 10 seconds or less. For drawbar-type implements and planters, a removable Class III drawbar with 12,000 lb. tongue weight capacity is included with the hitch. A Category IV drawbar is available as an option. Email [email protected] or call (877) 390-4480. LIPHATECH ROZOL VOLE BAIT MILWAUKEE, Wis.—Rozol Vole Bait, packed in 50-pound bags, is designed to control vole populations under demanding weather conditions. Formulated as a highly palatable, weather- resistant, paraffinized pellet, Rozol resists wet conditions before and after snow pack. Rozol Pellets’ high palatability is attributed to food-grade- quality grains. Rozol Vole Bait is a restricted-use pesticide, requiring applicators to be appropriately licensed to purchase and apply product. Supplemental state 24(c) labels aerial application is presently limited to the states of Idaho and Washington. The supplemental Idaho label allows application on pivot corners and within 100 feet of the edge of cropland, permitting preventative barrier treatments around forage, grains, potatoes, sugarbeets and other crops that are particularly vulnerable to vole in-migration and feeding. Rozol Vole Bait can be used year-round on non-crop areas, borders of cropped areas and commercial nurseries. Rozol pellets can be broadcast or spot applied at a rate of 10 lbs. per acre for meadow and mountain voles, or 20 lbs. per acre for pine voles. Call (888) 331-7900 or visit www.liphatech.com. ZONAR GPS TRACKING SEATTLE, Wash.—Zonar, provider of electronic fleet inspection, tracking and operations systems, announced the availability of a new patent-pending technology that adds fuel as a fifth dimension to the firm’s HD-GPS reporting. Employing Zonar’s patent-pending technology, fleets will now be able to easily identify, with tremendous detail, the routes and lanes over which their vehicles are most and least fuel efficient. The GPS sampling density increases when fuel consumption increases or “spikes” and relaxes when fuel consumption decreases or is relatively static. In addition to five-dimensional data sampling, Zonar’s telematics platforms transmit engine fault codes and verified electronic vehicle inspection data in real-time. This information alerts maintenance personnel to potential service events and provides the ability to remotely diagnose vehicles in the case of a malfunction. Visit www.zonarsystems.com. TNA ROBAG Innovative enhancements to the renowned tna robag 3ci bagger have produced the tna robag 3ci—with its high-performance system, the bagger provides up to a 30 percent improvement in performance in both output and reduction in rejects. Renowned globally for consistently pushing the upper limits of performance, the new tna robag 3ci offers unprecedented throughput rates of up to 250bpm. With innovative new features including the new tna intelliweigh omega multi-head scale, the tna hyper-detect metal detector and tna flo-thru former, the new tna robag 3ci provides manufacturers with up to 30 percent improvement in performance. Suitable for high volumes of fresh and frozen produce, the tna robag can be fully integrated up- and downstream onto existing packaging lines. tna offers a broad range of additional solutions, including date coders, on-machine and closed loop oil seasoning solutions, plus horizontal and vibratory conveyors. Visit www.tnasolutions.com. PG AGSORT E-SORTER AgSort announces E-Sorter, an optical sorting machine for potato growers. This new and innovative product was on display at the 2012 National Potato Council Expo, January 4–6 in Orlando, Fla. Greg Jones, a potato grower of 35 years, invented the E-Sorter. The E-Sorter was designed from the growers’ perspective, and every effort was made to address all issues a grower faces in the grading process. The product boasts a simple design, has outstanding accuracy and is surprisingly affordable. Expo guests had the opportunity to watch the E-Sorter run, and met Jones and other members of the AgSort team. Visit www.agsort.com. HYPRO EXPRESS WET BOOM FITTINGS Hypro Express Wet Boom Fittings feature a connection that is quick and easy to assemble, while providing a quality leakproof seal for stainless steel or polypropylene pipe. They lock the alignment of pipe sections, barbs, tees or nozzle bodies for always-right assembly. Utilizing the proven o-ring sealed joints used for nozzle bodies, Express Wet Boom Fittings eliminate the need for leak-prone threaded joints or expensive welded fittings. They efficiently install using the same hardware and mounting methods as Hypro ProFlo Wet Boom nozzle bodies and leverage the same simple drilling and cutting operations used to prepare pipes for final assembly. Express Wet Boom Fittings can help save on manufacturing costs by reducing assembly time and increasing assembly quality. They also enable the use of lighter schedule 5 pipe in place of heavy schedule 40 pipe, reducing the cost of stainless material by as much as 50 percent. Express Wet Boom Fittings are currently available for 1-inch nominal pipe (1.315-inch OD) with universal flange, hose barb and cam lock connection options. Visit www.hypropumps.com. PG
