German term or phrase: Aufsattel-Sprühgeräte
would "portable spraying equipment" seem like an appropriate translation?

The equipment is attached to tractors for spraying... so maybe "Aufsattel" actually has to do with it being attached to the tractor. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

semi-mounted sprayers
Explanation:
Production of farm equipment began in late 1945. In 1947 Servis produced the first tractor-mounted, rotary stalk shredder. The shredder was mounted on the front of the tractor and allowed the farmer to shred and plow in one pass through the field. The first pull-type mower/shredder was produced in 1948.
