Einboeck is a 4th generation, Austrian family-owned company.
FarmChief machinery has been announced as the distributor of Einboeck agricultural equipment in New Zealand, taking over the mantle from previous distributor Tulloch Farm Machines, Masterton.
“We see great potential, particularly in the area of reseeding and weed control, to offer New Zealand farmers an economical and sustainable solution for grassland care,” says Grant Murray, CEO of Farm- Chief.
Einboeck’s grassland weeder and the P-Box- STI pneumatic seeding box uses a tined seeder to effectively remove weeds and dead grass, promoting tillering and sward vitality, while the seeding units deliver versatile seeding options and precise quantity dosing to ensure optimal germination conditions and a dense pasture.
Einboeck is a 4th generation, Austrian family- owned company that has set itself the goal of offering the best technology for mechanical weeding. This includes a wide range of tined weeders for arable crops and grassland care, to state-of-the-art row-crop cultivators for speciality and vegetable crops with camera or Section-Control.
With nearly 50 years of experience supporting New Zealand agriculture, FarmChief will use the collaboration to promote interest in areas such as organic grassland care and Fusion Farming, which are already known and increasing in popularity in Europe.
In other news, Einboeck is expanding its tillage product portfolio with the Razor – a flat cultivator that combines razor-sharp, full-surface shallow and ultra-flat tillage with impressive flexibility and precision. This concept is said to deliver reduced wear and tear and fuel consumption, leading to lower overall operating costs.
The Razor is also ideal as a mechanical alternative to herbicides, offering precise incorporation of cover crops in spring or stubble cultivation in summer, down to a working depth of 12cm.
Offered in 4m or 6m working widths, with five rows of Herkules sprung S-tines set at 15cm spacing, featuring narrow or duck-foot points with up to 90mm of overlap, the rear of the machines offer three rows of 12mm weeder tines.
Depth control is achieved with rollers or tractor profile wheels, with hydraulic adjustment, complemented by front-mounted assemblies to achieve a level finish in all conditions.
The rearward weeder tines, guided by a parallelogram, ensure that roots, weeds and grasses are brought to the surface, uprooted and laid down on top to dry.
