New seed drill tech coming
Incorporating Vaderstad's latest seed drill technology, the Proceed V 24, is said to improve precision and increase planting efficiencies for New Zealand farmers and growers from the 2026 season.
The FeedStation Mobile is claimed to reduce feed costs, optimise milk and meat production, while also improving cow health.
Equipped with 4G internet connectivity and integrated solar panels, the system is controlled by the Dutch company’s Spider feeding computer, which can be linked to a management system for full integration, with the system recognising individual animals by RFID ear or neck transponders.
Easily moved to the paddock by a tractor or 4WD vehicle, the bulk storage hopper has a 2230 litre capacity and can be refilled by a front-end loader equipped tractor.
Brought to the field using a tractor or other 4wd vehicle, the Dutch manufacturer says the integrated 2230-litre hopper can be easily refilled using a tractor or loader.
Configured to allow two or four animals to feed at once, the system also offers the ability to feed two different rations, and can be connected to the power supply, allowing the station to be used all year round, indoors and outdoors.
