FarmChief Moore Uni Drill

"It really impressed me"

David says “It’s been developed and proven in Ireland. Here we have a mix of stoney soils and heavier soils, along with irrigation, so in many ways, we are similar to Ireland with their higher rainfall. 

“Todd bought the machine down and did a demo with it. Rob, a FarmChief service technician, was fantastic and his experience with the machine really showed – he got it all set up and running for us. We drilled into a couple of different soil types – we took it into some wet ground and then into some damaged pasture and showed it working in both situations. Its trash clearance really impressed me as well.”

Mike's View

Mike Brensell works with Hamish Ryan on Ryan Farms in Lumsden. Mike was quietly quite chuffed with the new ExpressPlus Speed Discs.

Sheats in front of 6m Speed Discs

"It's saving at least one, if not two passes. Over 200ha, that's a significant saving right there"

“The double packer rollers on the back are amazing compared to the single rollers I’ve used in the past. They leave the ground very level. You can actually sow grass seed after it. Using the old disc roller, we’d have to go through afterwards with some harrows to level it out a bit more before bringing the drill in, which is just another cost.”

The ExpressPlus has been so effective in bringing passes down and producing a great seedbed, Ron doesn’t have much use for his 6m grubber and harrows. “We really use them very little now – the ExpressPlus is like three machines in one. They are certainly more versatile than our grubber or other disc rollers”.
