Cadman Power Equipment’s line of Strong, Simple and Dependable booms are the first choice for farmers around the world. Cadman offers three- and four-wheeled versions of our booms with lane spacing from 100’ (33m) to 295’ (90M) to suit the needs of virtually any farm operation.

Cadman Booms help farmers to improve profitability by saving pumping and labour costs, and by helping to reduce crop diseases. They allow you to make efficient use of water by preventing runoff, preventing drift on windy days, and reducing the impact of water on delicate plants, such as newly planted crops or lettuces. They also put more water where you intend to put it, by reducing evaporation loss, and providing a 90-95% Coefficient of Uniformity. Cadman Booms work well with any brand of reel system. However, when paired with Cadman Travellers our boom system offers the ultimate in efficiency, flexibility and ease of operation you need to help improve your bottom line.
