Features and Benefits

These fully scalable systems effortlessly help with environmental compliance, minimise soil compaction and recycle nutrients more effectively – which, alone, can save you thousands.

The volumes transferred are hard to beat. The Storth umbilical system, can deliver up to a staggering 300,000 litres per hour: Making over 1,000,000 litres per day achievable. It also does that without getting in the way, or disrupting herd movement. The umbilical system is also ideal when the going is softer. (Think: Southland, for example.)

They’re not a silver bullet, but they have also helped our farmers through dry times by keeping the grass growing and moisture in the soil. The strong, reliable system has a size to suit every need from a 400m bobbin reeler up to the 2000m trailed reeler. Using a combination of reelers on front and rear one tractor can carry up to 3000m of hose. (Not a bad effort.)

And you have the option of slurry distribution by;

  • Trailing shoe injector
  • Dribble bar or,
  • A simple twin spreader attachment

Testimonials

Tony’s View.

Fisken Contracting, based in Gore, can tackle fairly much any job there is. From lane maintenance to cartage, baling to logging. Tony Fisken backs umbilical slurry systems because of their efficiency and the fact that they’ll work at high volumes and in conditions where slurry tankers simply can’t. “There’s little or no compaction of laneways or paddocks and it’s a very effective way of moving large amounts of nutrient.” Tony says the system is especially good on softer soils, (and on the shoulder seasons) where tankers could get stuck, as there are only the hoses to be placed down and reeled in. His business works with umbilical on distances up to, and even exceeding 2kms, which, Tony says, accommodates most properties. Some farmers find it so effective they choose not to use their own systems at all. “They just give us a call.”
