British sprayer specialist Knight Farm Machinery has signed one of the UK’s largest farm equipment dealers, in what they describe as a significant expansion of their retail network.

From April 20, 2026, Chandlers Farm Equipment becomes a Knight dealer, retailing the Rutland sprayer manufacturer’s full range, from 1,300-1,900 litre mounted to 3,500-12,000 litre trailed and 3,500-6,000 litre self-propelled models, plus demount sprayers and applicator systems.

The agreement also covers the recently-launched Agroma UK products, including the complementary mounted 800-1,500 litre and trailed 3,000-4,000 litre sprayers, plus 200-2,000 litre models for the orchard, fruit and vineyard sectors, and mist sprayers tailored to livestock building sanitation.

Chandlers is one of the UK’s largest farm equipment dealers, with 17 depots across the Midlands and the Welsh borders, spanning Lincs, Leics, Warks, Beds, Cambs, Oxon, Wilts, Glos, Shrops, Worcs, Hereford and Monmouthshire. All except the Holbeach, Horncastle, Spilsby and RFM depots are covered by the agreement, and will sell and support the full range of Knight and AGROMA sprayers.  

The Chandlers FE depot at Cirencester, Glos, will be responsible for selling and supporting Knight KDM demount sprayers for JCB Fastrac tractors across all the Chandlers JCB territory, which covers Glos, Worcs, Shrops, Hereford and Monmouth. 

“Adding a dealer of Chandlers’ scale and calibre to our network, with its wide geographical coverage and well-established reputation in retailing and supporting quality farm equipment, shows our commitment to the market,” says Paul Harrison, sales and marketing consultant at Knight.

“Chandlers has a strong track record in sprayer sales and support, and together we plan to build on that with this Knight and Agroma agreement.”

Gavin Pell, managing director at Chandlers Farm Equipment, added, “This appointment has filled a recently-created gap in our product offering, and I’m really pleased we have been able to do that with a business that offers the quality and technology of Knight. It has long held a reputation for innovation, and I’m confident we now have a sprayer range that fits right across the diversity of farm types and sizes throughout the wide span of our depot area, with everything from the simpler and more specialist Agroma machines to the high technology and high capacity of the Knight models.”
