Advantage Plastics says it is revolutionising calf meal storage and handling, making farm life easier, safer, and more efficient this season.

Many farmers have expressed frustration over the challenges of managing individual 25kg bags, which can be physically demanding, time-consuming, and messy.

Additionally, with most feed suppliers offering lower prices for bulk purchases, it might be time to rethink meal handling and storage for the upcoming season.

Offerings include the Smart Stakkas and Smart EZI Bins – portable side discharge hoppers that simplify the process for half or one tonne bulk bags.

For even greater efficiency, the recently launched Auger or Gravity feed-out trailers are designed to make handling easy.

For those looking to move from bulk bags and receive meal delivery in bulk truck loads, Advantage Plastics Smart Silos offer a range of bulk storage options, with capacities ranging from 1 to 30 tonnes, ensuring durability and longevity.
