Cooney Furlong Machinery Company will be bringing a host of Väderstad cultivation and seeding kit alongside a selection of the Austrian-built Goweil machinery to next week’s FTMTA Show.
From Väderstad, a Spirit 400c four-metre seed and fertiliser drill will be front and centre.
It will include the new tri force II coulter bar and features a newly designed triangular rubber suspension beam.
This provides dual gear stages (high/low) for ground contour following across uneven terrain. This also gives 120kg of active coulter pressure, up from the previous 80kg.
This is to ensure stable seed placement and consistent depth even at higher working speeds.
A Topdown 300 will be on display with a double steel packer. This high intensity multipurpose cultivator is designed for performing both a full-scale shallow cultivation and a deep cultivation in one single pass.
Wide ridge
It’s designed to reduce passes, preserve ground moisture and lower establishment costs. It will be fitted with the aggressive double steel packer.
Väderstad claims the packer’s design creates a wide ridge that allows the soil to dry faster, thereby allowing you to carry out the next field operation quicker.
A Carrier 300 trailed model will also be on show. It comes fitted with a rubber packer and 470mm true cut discs. To increase its levelling capacity, the trailed Carrier 300 can be equipped with a hydraulic CrossBoard heavy, fitted with a double-acting stabilising bar.
The Cultus 300 trailed will also make an appearance. It can be used as a primary cultivator or a secondary cultivator. It comes with an 85cm frame clearance with working depths of 30cm achievable.
The Väderstad Rexius 650 heavy-duty roller will be on display. It’s designed for soil consolidation and clod crushing. Available from 6.5 metres up to 12 metres, it can be fitted with cross board heavy paddles.
The Carrier 625 XT will be exhibited. The Carrier XT is available in three different working widths; 4.25m, 5.25m or 6.25m, in both trailed and mounted models. They can be fitted with 450mm discs, 470mm discs or the shallow working crosscutter disc.
Goweil
The Goweil G1 -F125 solo baler will also make an appearance. Fitted with 18, 4mm thick rollers and a six-star hardox tipped rotor, the G1 F125 baler is also available in a combination wrapper format.
