“ClicRtechnologies is laser-focused on bringing the ag industries into the 21st century,”

said ClicRtechnologies President Joey Spicola,

“using never before seen technology and creating the digital ranch.”

About 30 attendees gathered for a luncheon and presentation by Spicola and other ClicRtechnologies team members. Among those in attendance were representatives from Florida Senator Marco Rubio’s office, guests from the University of Florida’s Beef Teaching Unit and Abraham Baldwin Agricultura College (ABAC).

Recently ABAC partnered with ClicRtechnologies and American Cattlemen magazine to produce a series of articles after the company donated $40,000 along with three weighing systems for the school’s cattle operations.

After the luncheon, all attendees had the opportunity to view the ClicRweight Bovine Solution for themselves at work in one of Double C Bar’s pastures. The system is set up in a simple pole barn around the water source. An RFID ear tag is scanned whenever an animal goes to drink and a camera instantly begins “clicking” hundreds of 3D photographs. That data is immediately processed into a weight, which can be viewed with a digital dashboard made accessible through any device with connection to the internet.

Over time, the system continues to learn each animal, providing the herd’s valuable information including daily rate of gain, weight average and feed efficiency. The ClicRweight Bovine Solution has been in place on the Double C Bar Ranch since early March. Joe Planz, a ClicRtechnologies board member and investor, grazes some of his cattle herd on the ranch.

“Grazing our calves two and half hours away from the main ranch,”

he says.

“ClicR enables us to have a constant analysis of how the calves are doing in real-time and enables us to address any issues expediently and proactively.”

The next day, the ClicRtechnologies team gathered in the company’s new International headquarters in Tampa. The team discussed plans for company growth in the near future and progress made over the last 12 months.

“One of the benefits of our system is that it can be totally managed from anywhere in the world,”

said Spicola.

In addition to cattle, ClicRtechnologies also has solutions for weighing swine and alligators. To learn more, visit the company website: https://clicrweight.com.

• Front steering: only the front wheels turn. This is the suggested option when the self-propelled truck is used in transfers.
• Concentric steering: the front and rear wheels both turn simultaneously in opposite directions. This type of steering provides a smaller turning radius.
• Crab steering: all four wheels turn in the same direction, allowing the mixer wagon to make a lateral movement. This type of steering is efficient when working in small spaces (approach maneuver).

The new side chute attachment extends the feed drop point of your Unrolla chain bale feeder and will assist with feeding into troughs, bunks, along hot-wires, or up against head-bails for indoor feeding. Not only is it a time and feed waste saver, but it also allows your tractor to drive down passageways or along fences and bunks with more clearance, reducing the chance of damage to your tractor or tires.

Why

Farmers are a solution-focused bunch and because this is the first attachment of its kind on the market, some of them had to previously make their own side extensions. Hustler contacted a handful of those inventors and worked together with them to develop a solution, that would satisfy the need for trough feeding with a conventional chain bale feeder.

How

The side chute has an adjustable angle for the operator to fine-tune delivery and reach. Equipped with a solid steel frame and impact-resistant high-density polyethylene it is shock and knock-resistant, while also being flexible enough to forgive any misjudgments when driving along bunks or fences too close.

For

Although the side chute will work for balage with some operator adjustments, Hustler does recommend you use it for dry hay, short chopped grass, grain, and root-crops for best results. Feeders especially designed and developed for trough feeding are the brand’s series of Chainless bale feeders, which will handle every type and shape of the bale, or its Feedlot Unrolla LM105T with tilting side elevator for maximum reach.

With the help of a Hustler Chainless mounted bale unroller he can still easily feed his cattle from the comfort of his tractor seat, without having to jump in and out of the cab frequently or pulling a rope to disconnect the feeder.

“There are only two flat spots on this farm: the bed and the table”

Bob jokes. Rolling hill country can be hard to navigate, especially in winter. The Hustler Chainless bale unrollers are compact, light and safe for hilly terrain, which will guarantee operation wherever your tractor goes.

The couple from Ponderosa Ranch bought their first Hustler 15 years ago and have recently decided to equip a second tractor with a Hustler Chainless bale feeder, as their property has become more spread out.

“A good and strong product”

Bob especially appreciates the ease of use of the machine, the compact size, which makes it easy to get through gates and the easy loading process with integrated tynes. The Hustler Chainless mounted bale unroller is perfect for a one-man-operation and for Bob it means that at 77, he can still feed all of his cattle from the comfort of his tractor seat.  About Hustler Equipment, Bob says:

“From a company point of view they’re easy to work with”.

Another strong feature of our Chainless bale unrollers is the patented auto-connection system Snaplox, which makes loading and connecting the bale feeder easy.

12 Advantages of the Snaplox Hand-Free Connection System:

1. No need to pull on a rope, whilst simultaneously juggling the 3 point linkage lift height and reverser
2. No more strain or twisting of your back
3. No hydraulics
4. No need to pull on a hydraulic lever to disconnect
5. No need to remember to reset a hydraulic lever to enable it to lock again
6. No wasted time plugging in extra hydraulic remotes
7. No need to wait for hydraulics when disconnecting
8. No smashed rear windows
9. No accidental disconnection
10. No twisting of the frame
11. Works on front-end-loaders opening up a huge efficiency and versatility advantage
12. Just simple reliable, a mechanical action that is seamless and fool-proof and operates naturally

Having the option of feeding square, as well as round bales with one single machine gives your operation the freedom of choice when buying in bales, which means you are not restricted by the availability of one type of bale, while being able to make a price conscious decision to fit your business. Especially in drought conditions where prices are high and bales are scarce, this can be an unbeatable advantage.

Main Benefits

The Hustler Chainless bale feeder feeds out square and round bales simply by adjusting the platform to the right position. The robust frame is able to handle bales of up to 1,250kg weight. The design is compact and light enough to fit into narrow barns. 3-point linkage, as well as loader, skid steer and telehandler mount options are possible and make this feeder perfect for feeding into troughs and hay racks.

Easy Loading

Our patented Snaplox System is a hands-free auto connection and disconnection system that lets you disconnect the feeder by simply lowering it onto the ground. No more pulling on a rope and twisting your back.

1. Disconnect the Cradle
2. Load Bale
3. Feed Bale

The integrated tynes mean the unit is suitable for a single tractor operation and the low cradle design makes loading bales simple. Once the bale is ready to be fed out, Snaplox automatically locks when reconnecting the headstock to the feeding cradle, for guaranteed safety.

Features

The headstock can easily be connected to the feeding cradle thanks to the unequal length tynes and large guide cones. The powerful 3:1 rotors of the Hustler Chainless bale feeder gently tease apart the bale to preserve the nutritional leaf, which makes the feed more palatable for your stock and minimizes feed wastage. The all hydraulic system means, there are no chains that can snatch or derail. The result is increased reliability, lower maintenance and a silent operation.
