Seasonal effects, such as field conditions, changing crop intensity during the season, and – in particular – the weather requires a flexible harvesting system, which can be quickly adjusted to the conditions facing you today.

You need the capacity to get the job done in time during a dry spell before the weather changes again. An adaptable system of implements that complements each other is imperative when making the complete harvesting process as efficient and accurate as possible.

“As a grower, when we plant a field, we want to install an irrigation system one time. We want to have a product that will last the life of the orchard or vineyard.  The fact that Jain provides products with high-quality resin and a 12-year warranty, we feel confident when we plant this orchard, the Jain tubing and sprinklers will be in this field for the rest of its life.”

“Sprinklers provide the flexibility we don’t normally get in sandy soils with double line drip. We almost mimic the flood irrigation aspect  of 100 percent coverage but with the precision of a pressure compensating sprinkler.”

We can all learn from Austin’s experience and dedication to sustainability:

“By applying only the water, we need to apply we are farming at a high level of efficiency, allowing us to save money and resources. With the advent of products Jain offers, we are finding solutions to our long-term problems.”

Kristine said:

“I have 16 acres that my husband and I used to be able to maintain, then he got sick, and after a long battle, passed away last year. The trees have come up and have been growing for almost 10 years. I had to sell our tractor to help pay for medical expenses.”

Since her husband’s passing, Kristine hasn’t been able to maintain the property to her standards. She wrote in her contest entry that she needed a compact tractor to clean up brush, restore her pasture, repair a large fishpond, and reconfigure the property’s fencing. But she also had a bigger project wish list: to have a beautiful gazebo built next to the pond along with a nice fire pit and the outdoor cooking area built for her family to enjoy.

Bobcat Company and Meredith Agrimedia teamed up with Bobcat of Pensacola to deliver the CT2025 to Kristine. She plans to start checking off her to-do list right away to restore the property to its original condition with acres of sunflowers, a garden, a wildlife habitat, and potentially some farm animals again in the future.

Kristine said:

“My Bobcat tractor will help me maintain my property, fix it up like I would like to have it looking. I won’t have to ask anybody to come help. I’ll just be able to get out there, get on my tractor and do it myself. Every Saturday I’ll be out there on it. It’s really going to change my life and the way we live out here on this property.”

The 25-hp CT2025 awarded to Kristine features a hydrostatic transmission, four-wheel drive, power steering, a Category 1 three-point hitch, and rear PTO. It comes with a factory-installed, quick-attach front-end loader that includes a hose kit, bucket level indicator, grille guard, and mounting kit. Additional features include a rollover protective structure, work lights, ergonomic controls, suspension seat, and low-noise engine. The CT2025 offers high ground clearance to help maneuver over rough ground and a tight turning radius for working in small spaces or around obstacles. The prize is valued at more than $20,000.

Angie Ryan, a compact tractor marketing manager at Bobcat Company, said:

“As the global leader in compact equipment, we’re proud to be able to provide a compact tractor and front-end loader to someone who can use the machine in a variety of ways. Kristine is a fine example of an individual who will be able to use this machine to help restore her 16-acre property back to its original condition. We’re excited that we can help Kristine accomplish more on her property.”

A native of Northeastern Colorado, Brian Allmer began his career in agricultural broadcasting in 2005.  He launched Barn Media in 2007, and seeing the hunger for more local agricultural news, he launched the Colorado Agriculture News Network in 2012.

“BARN Media and the Colorado Ag News Network’s mission is to provide accurate and factual information pertaining to any ag issue facing Colorado ranchers, producers and agriculture entrepreneurs,”

says Brian Allmer, owner of Barn Media.

“Then let the listener or web visitor make up their own mind based on the facts presented to them.  We are excited to partner with J.L. Farmakis, Inc. as they have the same passion for local ag media as we do at the BARN.”

J.L. Farmakis, Inc. is one of the leading agricultural media rep firms in the U.S. with more than 40 multimedia partners.

“We have watched Brian’s presence in Colorado over the last few years and his network is a perfect complement for our other prominent State Farm Radio Networks,”

Bill Farmakis, president of J.L. Farmakis, Inc. says.

“His super-local ag programming and connection to producers follow our model in other states.”

Why re-baling? you may ask. Re-baling your big round or square bales into small squares may be a lucrative way to on-sell your hay or straw. One big round bale can in most cases be turned into 22x small squares – you do the maths.

Or it might just be a good way for you to turn you large bales into easy to handle, convenient small bales. Often time is scarce when harvesting, so making large bales and then turning them into small bales later on in the off-season, can be a great option depending on your operation.

Also, using your Hustler bale unroller to feed a bale into a TMR Mixer can make the mixing process a lot quicker.

Whatever your intention, a Hustler bale unroller can help. The Chainless SX105 has been specifically developed for re-baling, however, you can use any Chainless model to feed your bales into the baling machine.

Dennis from DLH Farms Shows Us How

Dennis from DLH Farms has filmed a tutorial on his YouTube Channel to show how he uses his mounted Chainless LX105 (Chainless X2500) bale unroller to re-bale 5×5 round bales into small squares that are sold at the farm store. So far, he has sold 245 of them through the store.

Dennis likes the set-up of the Hustler Chainless bale feeder. The bale cradle can be unhooked from the cabin without a rope and the tractor drops away from it while retaining the double spears that can be used for loading the bale. Read more about our Snaplox hands-free automatic connection system here or watch our 60-second video explaining the feature here.

He uses the tractor to power the bale unroller that feeds into the baling machine and shows you how he works it. While he points out that slow is the way to go at the start of the bale, once you get a good flow it’s nice and easy to feed the hay into the re-baler by adjusting the platform to the size of your bale. The speed of the rotors teasing apart the bale can also be adjusted, making sure any shape or form of the bale can be unrolled.
