Bale Preservative and Moisture Meters
In the heart of the harvest season, John, a dedicated farmer, relies heavily on the precision of bale preservatives and moisture meters. As his hay baling operation and combine gathers the crops, these tools enable him to bale much closer behind the harvester. The moisture meters ensure that the bales are produced at optimal moisture levels, while the preservatives maintain the quality of the forage and straw when the weather is unpredictable. This seamless process not only saves time but also preserves the nutritional value of the hay and straw, ensuring that John’s livestock will have high-quality feed throughout the year and any excess hay or straw is sold with confidence in the quality.
Bale Tarpaulins
With the bales quickly accumulating in the fields, John turns to his trusty bale tarpaulins. These heavy-duty long-life covers are built to withstand winds in excess of 100mph and effective UV protection with an average life of 5-7 years, are crucial in protecting his valuable hay and straw from unexpected rain and harsh sunlight. John easily installs and removes the tarpaulins with the unique and extremely simple Super Cinch systems. By deploying the tarpaulins, John ensures that his bales remain dry and in optimal conditions for use on the farm or sale to customers, safeguarding them from the rain and spoilage. This protection is essential as it minimises waste and maintains the feed’s quality, allowing John to focus on the next steps in his farming cycle with peace of mind.
PFC Cultivators
Once the bales are safely covered, John prepares to cultivate his fields for the next planting season. He relies on PFC cultivators, which are designed for effective soil preparation. These cultivators break up, subsoil, create the perfect tilth and all other forms of the soil preparation, promoting better aeration and water infiltration. The low-cost, high-quality specifications of PFC cultivators mean John can prepare his fields quickly and effectively, ensuring the soil is ready for the next crop. This efficiency allows him to maximise his productivity and maintain the health of his fields while maximising the savings in operating costs to increase his margin.
Hydrox Hydrogen Systems
As John works tirelessly on his farm, he finds solace in the fact that he is contributing to a greener future. His equipment is powered by Hydrox hydrogen system. The system functions by using the vehicles battery power. Generating oxygen and hydrogen gas (HHO) by using electrolysis to split water. HHO improves the combustion efficiency of all diesel and petrol engines. This clean energy source allows John to save 20-30% on fuel costs and reduce his carbon emissions by up to 80%. The hydrogen systems are a game-changer, enabling him to perform all his tasks efficiently while promoting sustainable farming practices. This innovation not only benefits his farms finances but also contributes positively to the environment.
Slurry Bags
With winter approaching, John’s cattle begin to rely more on the forage he so meticulously produced with HarvestPro preservative and the baling technology. The straw is utilised as bedding on a cubicle system and managing the resulting slurry becomes a priority. John uses PFC’s slurry bags to store the livestock waste efficiently and cost-effectively. These flexible storage systems prevent environmental contamination and are easy to install. Produced from the market leading highest grade of 1400g/m2 UV treated material, producing an expected life span in excess of 20 years. By using slurry bags, John can store and later use the slurry as a rich fertiliser, enhancing soil fertility. This method ensures that John’s waste is managed responsibly and for a minimum of 6 months. Contributing to the overall financial and environmental sustainability of his farm.
PFC Supplied Saws
John’s field boundaries are made up of hedges and small woodlands that require regular maintenance. To keep these areas in top condition, John uses PFC supplied saws. These saws are capable of operating at 1-8 km/h while cutting through wood up to 10 inches (25 cm) in diameter. The precision and power of the saws make them perfect for maintaining his hedges and managing the surrounding woodland areas. This upkeep is crucial to maintain cultivated land area from be encroached and also the aesthetics of his farm and health of the ecosystem. With these saws, John ensures his farm remains well-maintained and productive year-round.
Through this integrated approach, from using bale preservatives to maintaining his fields and surrounding areas with PFC supplied saws, John’s farm thrives efficiently and sustainably. Each step in his farming process is interconnected, leading to a productive and environmentally conscious operation maximising the financial return.
