Handspraying two hectares of new woodland?

[Alan M]

Many thanks for all replies. There is no water supply at the field. Approx how many refills might I need for a 10-15L sprayer?  I will do the proper maths but currently looking for an approximate figure if possible.

A trailer with an IBC with water will be your friend.

Its been nearly 20 years since i last sprayed around trees, but i think i used to do at least 2000 a day.

From memory I think 10litre will do around 250 trees if you are spraying a metre square with a medium flow nozzle.

Thanks, that's very helpful and gives me a rough idea of logistics.
