 Have you been stuck in the middle with your flock settlements?
God forbid, maybe you’ve been on the bottom for a while!
Growers who used to have trouble with flock performance due to problems that are harbored in the litter of their poultry houses are seeing their performance improve dramatically through the use of the Red Dragon Poultry House Sanitizer.
The poultry house sanitizer, manufactured by Flame Engineering in LaCrosse, KS is a simple to use and economical way to effectively kill pathogens, bugs and their eggs and larvae in commercial poultry houses.
The sanitizer works with propane flame safely covered with an insulated hood to produce heat ranging from 1200 – 2050 degrees Fahrenheit.
Compared to in-house composting/windrowing which may reach temperatures of between 120 and 160 degrees in the centers of the piles if conditions permit, propane flame produces from 800 to over 1200% more heat than the upper end temperature of windrowing techniques in commercial poultry houses.
So instead of taking 10 days or more of your time between flocks, you can take about an hour per house to flame sanitize - with a higher degree of reliability.

Growers who use flame weeding equipment or poultry house flame sanitizers are saving money and making more money than their neighbors who are still doing things conventionally.

If you have been thinking of buying an Alfalfa Flamer, Row Crop Flamer, Vegetable Bed Flamer, Vineyard or Orchard Flamer, Blueberry or Potato Vine Flamer, or a Poultry House Flame Sanitizer, make your purchase by the end of the year and you will receive a 5% discount and free freight!

Your equipment purchase is 100% tax deductible
under U.S. Tax Code Section179.

Financing is  available with no payments until January 2018.

Fall is in the air!
It's time to start closing up your poultry barns to conserve heat for your young birds. At this time of year there's a balancing act between keeping the poultry houses ventilated to keep the air quality at such a level that your birds can breathe and don't go blind due to excess ammonia vapors in the air.
Another issue during the cooler months is wet litter and disease problems,; not to mention all those bugs they keep delivering to your farm with the feed.
With a Red Dragon PL 8750 Poultry House Sanitizer all of those problems are taken care of at one time.
The poultry house sanitizer provides a high level of control over the quality of the litter in your houses. It dries out wet litter, kills pathogens that cause diseases like Dermatitis, L.T. and much more. While all that's happening as you're driving through your poultry barns at 1/2 mile per hour you are seriously barbecuing the darkling beetles and their eggs and larvae. A wonderful side benefit to poultry house flame sanitiation is the tremendous reduction in ammonia in your houses.
Happy birds and a handsome paycheck.
Thanks what it's all about.
Contact us today for more information on the Red Dragon PL 8750 Poultry House Sanitizer and ask to speak with our growers that are benefiting from the poultry house flame sanitizer.

This PL8750 poultry house sanitizer and landscape flamer was used for a short time in a soils study and is now for sale.
This is hands down the best way to sanitize organic or conventional commercial poultry houses, by eliminating pathogens and insects; drying out the litter and flaring off ammonia.
There are many uses for the Red Dragon PL8750 Poultry House Sanitizer besides broiler and turkey house sanitation.
It is also used to control weeds when renovating turf grass on athletic fields.
It is very effective in controlling weeds on gravel roads and parking areas. Paving contractors use it to dry off asphalt prior to applying additional layers of asphalt.
They normally cost $12,000. The asking price for this one is $9,800.

In conventional tobacco it’s common to use herbicides such as Poast, Aim, Devrinol or Spartan to control weeds.
With organic tobacco, you are limited to cultivation & hand labor.
Controlling weeds in organic tobacco can make or break a farmer’s profit margin. Depending on the weather, it can be a daunting task requiring hundreds of man hours costing thousands of dollars for many farms.
That is until the introduction of flame cultivation equipment specifically designed for use in  tobacco.
Over the past few seasons a number of farmers have benefited from flame weeding their tobacco.
A precisely directed flame eliminates weeds and destroys weed seeds on the soil surface without damaging the crop. An additional benefit to flame weeding tobacco is that as you flame the weeds you are also flaming off emerging ground suckers.

A timely application of propane fueled flame will eliminate a lot of hand labor, saving money and improving crop quality.
You can flame weed throughout the growing season through lay-by and first harvest all the way to harvest.
There is no disturbing of soil, thereby no turning up new weed seeds and no disturbing plant roots.
Even in a wet year, if it's dry enough to get a tractor into the field, you can flame weed your tobacco.
Tobacco flame weeders are fueled by propane which is an inexpensive EPA certified non-toxic fuel.
The fuel consumption for a tobacco flamer is around 7 gallons of propane per acre.
During the growing season propane costs about a dollar per gallon or less.

If you are a tobacco grower or are considering growing organic, PRC or conventional tobacco I welcome you to contact us for more information on this tobacco flame weeding equipment.

A while back Clemson University demonstrated a propane fueled ditch flamer at their annual field day to prove the effectiveness of flame weed control. This ditch flamer is made from one of our Vineyard & Orchard flaming kits.
Propane flame weeding is very effective at controlling weeds without chemical runoff that pollutes rivers & streams as well as underground aquifers.
Propane is an E.P.A. certified clean fuel and is completely non-toxic.
For more information on organic weed control and these flame weeding kits, have a look the Vineyard & Orchard flaming equipment page on this site.
If you have questions about the ditch flamer or any of our other equipment, call any time for a free consultation.

Over the years we have had requests from organic market farmers looking for a tractor mounted vegetable bed flamer that is better suited for growers farming smaller tracts of land, around 3 - 5 acres.
We have always had larger scale vegetable bed and row crop flamers, as well as kits available for farmers who want to do their own welding and configure their own crop flaming equipment.
Now we have an option well suited for smaller tractors and smaller budgets that does not require you to build your own bed flamer.
This bed flamer weighs around 400 lbs. and can flame up to a 6' wide area in one pass. Each of the 2 propane tanks hold about 8 gallons of fuel. At 3 m.p.h, you can flame around 2 acres.
Cut way back on labor for weeding crops like carrots, beets and salad greens. Slower germinating crops like carrots, and beets can be flamed just prior to germination and salad crop beds can be flamed just prior to planting. (stale seedbed flaming)
There are many possibilities with this flaming equipment.
We can also configure it for row crops and small scale orchard and vineyards.

Are you one of the growers that are questioning the effectiveness of windrowing for disease and insect control?

The Red Dragon Poultry House Sanitizer attaches to the 3 point hitch on your tractor.
Moving at around ½ mile per hour, you are applying intense heat of between 1400 and 2050 degrees directly to your litter (or bare floor, after a total litter clan out).
The heat from the propane fueled torches under a safe insulated hood dries out litter and kills pathogens more effectively and reliably than chemical applications or windrowing. (See this article highlighting the Red Dragon Poultry House Sanitizer’s effectiveness in controlling Bird Flu in poultry houses.)

Flame sanitizing also kills darkling beetles, eggs and larvae in the litter of your poultry house. Growers who use the Red Dragon Poultry House Sanitizer (PHS) report a drastic reduction in the population of darkling beetles.
