2 Maximize coverage with a Greenfield ML400 Mini-Lateral Machine Greenfield ML400 Mini-Laterals deliver all the labor, power and water savings of traditional lateral move machines, but are designed to fit small acreage applications. Developed to provide complete coverage for smaller fields, and in situations where low ground pressure is essential, these machines are suitable for a broad range of applications. Why a Mini-Lateral makes sense for small-field applications 98% COVERAGE OF FIELD A Greenfield lateral machine can irrigate fields up to 98% coverage, putting more of your field to work and virtually eliminating idle land. IMPROVE YIELDS Due to their extremely accurate distribution of water at low pressures, Mini-Lateral machines can give significant yield improvements without any water or power wastage. SIMPLE TO OPERATE Push-button controls for percentage timer or depth of application allows you to manage the exact speed and amount of water applied per cycle. SAVE TIME AND LABOR Hose hookup in front and rear of the cart. Easy hookup to riser after each run. ACCURATE AND EFFICIENT WATER DISTRIBUTION Unlike flood irrigation, a mechnical move system delivers precisely the amount of water you need, where you need it. TYPICAL SMALL-FIELD APPLICATIONS Sod/turf farms Horse farms Alfalfa Livestock pasture Vegetables Hunting lands
