Try and buy decisions atFarm World 2015

Over 700 exhibitors will provide visitors to Farm World2015 at Lardner Park, near Warragul, with a comprehensiverange of products to inspect and to gather the latest infor-mation to make important buying decisions.

As always Farm World field days, held this year fromThursday March 26 to Sunday March 29, will provide aunique platform for farm machinery manufacturers, suppli-ers and distributors to launch new products and to show-case their ranges.

Exhibitors find it to be an essential venue to highlightchanges in technology and to maintain and establish newcontacts.

This year a new initiative will enable prospective pur-chasers to trial an array of tractors, front-end loaders, tele-handlers and utility vehicles within a controlled demonstra-tion area.

A wide-ranging demonstration, presentation and activityprogram is again a feature of Farm World. Lots of machin-ery will be put through their paces and a lubricant special-ist will be on hand at the BP Ultimate Pavilion to advise onlubrication matters.

Throughout each day visitors can watch demonstrations ofa portable sawmill, compost turner, plasma cuttingmachines, as well as the ever-popular ‘Jacksons View AnimalNursery’, ‘Animals of Oz’ and sheep dog yard trials.

There will even be a range of AFL Gippsland football ini-tiatives. You can hone goal kicking and handball skills on arange of interactive activities.

The Farm World website has complete details on the FarmWorld demonstration, presentation and activity program.

The theme for Farm World 2015 is ‘Farm Productivity’. Thiswill focus on initiatives that farmers can take to improvetheir own farm productivity and will enable exhibitors whohave products or services relating to the theme to featurethem.

An example of this is the new ‘Krone Comprima X-treme’round baler distributed by Kubota Tractors Australia, said toincrease efficiency over their current machines by approxi-mately 10%, producing more than 75 bales per hour.

The expanded pasture, grain and vegetable display areafeatures a range of new grasses and fodder crops next to theprevious proven varieties, as well as a new extensive range ofvegetable and grain varieties.

Local Farmers can increaseproductivity with Evans Petroleum

From left, Evans Petroleum general manager Warren Evans, managing director StuartEvans and sales manager John Schelling.

With so much of theGippsland local economyreliant on farm produce,any developments thatimprove the productivityof local farms is usuallymet with optimism. In thecase of the partnershipbetween local companyEvans Petroleum and BP,this has proven to be true.

With so much relying onthe dependability and per-formance of farm machin-ery, equipment, tractorsand transport vehicles, it’simportant to ensure thatthere is reliable andprompt access to highquality fuels and lubri-cants to keep farms oper-ating, and running effi-ciently.

“The BP and Castrol fueland lubricant products aresimply at the very top asfar as quality goes” accord-ing to Evans PetroleumSales Manager JohnSchelling.

“From day one on thejob with Evans, our goalhas been to offer the bestquality product we possi-bly can, and back it up

products, it’s the localownership and connectionto the community that isthe difference, accordingto Evans PetroleumManaging Director, StuartEvans.

“Being locally owned andoperated is really impor-tant. We need to have thelocal knowledge to proper-ly support our customers.We only hire locals withextensive experience andknowledge of our prod-ucts, and that have a gen-uine interest in our localcommunities. We really tryto ensure that we have theknowledge and reliabilitythat our customers need.”

with local, reliable service.That means going out of ourway to ensure that the cus-tomer gets the best possibleproduct every time, and hasit delivered when we said wewould.”

The focus on offeringquality products was thedriving force behind thepartnership with BP and

Castrol, in which EvansPetroleum joined forceswith as the GippslandDistributor 2 years ago. Mr.Schelling describes the dif-ference that their range ofCastrol lubricants offer.

“They’re engineered prop-erly and we find they pro-vide much better perform-ance with farm machinery

and vehicles. Our customersget better performingengines and less break-downs so that’s got to begood for getting their workdone quicker and more reli-ably.”

COMMBANK EVENTS FOR EVERYONE AT FARM WORLD

WHAT’S ON AT FARM WORLD

Productivity is an ideal theme to explore at this year’s Farm World, according to CommBank Executive General Manager for Regional and Agribusiness Banking, Geoff Wearne.

“Maintaining and enhancing productivity is essential for the continuing success of our agribusiness sector so it’s great to see the topic adopted as the theme for Farm World 2015. Commonwealth Bank is pleased to be on board as a strategic partner again this year, and we’ll be focusing on the productivity theme through a number of our events and in our conversations with visitors to our stand,” Mr Wearne says.

One of the bank’s headline events is its breakfast panel discussion. The invitation-only event will feature a panel of business people sharing their views on the topic Profit and Productivity in agriculture – Are they mutually exclusive?

“We introduced the breakfast panel concept last year and it was very well received so we’re looking forward to some more thought-provoking discussion this year,” Mr Wearne says.

“We’re also excited to present the Commonwealth Bank Innovation Award during the Farm World opening ceremony, in recognition of an outstanding agribusiness which has contributed to the industry through leading innovation. Innovation and productivity go hand in hand.”

Mr Wearne says CommBank has planned a broad range of activities for Farm World, and will bring a team of bank specialists along over the four days.

“We’ve been supporting Farm World for more than 30 years but there’s always something new to see. Our local agribusiness bankers will be available to meet with visitors to the stand and some of our high profile specialists from within the bank will also be attending to share their insights,” he says.

What’s on at Farm World 2015 continued...Following the success of the Farm World 2014 ‘Health & Wellbeing’ theme a permanent ‘Health & Wellbeing’ area in the Lardner Park Exhibition Centre has been created at Farm World. There are many initiatives farmers and rural people can take to improve their health levels. According to the National Centre for Farmer Health “rural people have shorter life expectancies of up to two years in comparison to city counterparts and farming men, women and agricultural workers have unique health issues. These include a higher rate of suicide, respiratory disease, cardiovascular diseases, lower cancer survival and very high rates of injury and accidental death. Farming men and women are also 1.5 times more likely to experience chronic body pain and over two-thirds have a measurable hearing loss.”


As shown in these photographs, any

agricultural or horticultural pursuit can be improved by the use of Basix Trace packs

Basix Trace Packs Make a Big Difference to Your Farm Productivity. It is common knowledge that we have all started with low soil fertility in this part of the country. Some of these low fertility issues fall within the trace element band. As soon as the trace elements have been corrected in the soil, the

fertiliser regime can be streamlined, thereby giving maximum response to your on going granular fertiliser applications.

Basix Trace Packs give a long term, stable release across all soil types, regardless of rainfall or your farming enterprise. This is achieved simply because, over time, we have grown almost every known variety on the combined pasture site at Farmworld using the exact same method as we do across Southern Australia. This has given us an achievable known benchmark. It is true that all soil types are different. We address this by soil testing at the beginning and formulating a granular fertilizer and a suitable trace pack to correct the existing deficiencies.

After visiting us at Farmworld, these producers, having used Basix Trace Packs, have all benefited from simplifying their fertiliser regimes, and profitability has been significantly improved.

Over the past 8 years, the Basix Trace Pack team on the Combined Pasture Site has been focussed on displaying many hundreds of pasture and fodder varieties. Now, with a much wider lens, our view is to expand into food grains and a broad range of vegetables, while focusing on simple and successful fertiliser regimes.

Farm World New 2015

Food Grains. In previous years, we have displayed some of the cereal grains such as oats, barley, triticale, wheat, peas, and canola. Adding to this, we have now included many food grains (rye, rice, safflower, chia, linseed, quinoa, amaranth, lentils, chickpeas and buckwheat) as well as a range of beans (adzuki, black turtle, soya and mung) & hopefully peanut and sesame to round off the grains display.

Pasture. Keeping a total of 46 varieties, some from each category, we have now added 60 new varieties to grow alongside the old. Included in the display are annuals, biannuals and perennials of ryegrasses, and perennials of cocksfoot, phalaris, brome, fescue and timothy grasses. Legumes including clovers (sub, white, arrow, persian, crimson, rose, red, berseem, balansa, and strawberry), medics (burr, hybrid, strand, barrel, & sphere), Lucerne, and non-bloating legumes (sulla, serradella, and biserulla) are also displayed, as are chicory, plantain, brassicas and sugar beet.

Vegetables. The brand new vegetable display is just as diverse as the pastures and grains display. Recognising the significance of the potato and pea growers in the region, we have featured these two vegetables as our main emphasis. Displaying 13 currently relevant potato varieties, and 12 pea varieties (snap, shelling, and snow), all of which are sown on a new base granular fertiliser blend, and a new Basix Trace Element pack formulated for fast root zone dispersal. There is also a wide range of brassicas from broccoli to Asian greens and varieties of tomatoes, beets, cucurbits and lettuces, including several heirlooms for general interest.

Kactus PointCharolais – History

Kactus Point Charolais was founded by Bruce and VeraCook in 2008 when they bought their first registeredCharolais cows.

They have constantly improved the genetics over the pastyears.

The main herd began with the first pick of MixHill’s joinedand unjoined heifers (27) when they dispersed their herd.These heifers became the major nucleus of the herd andthey have bought from many other sales to constantlyimprove their herd genetics.

Over 150 stud cattle have blood lines from Boongatti,Rosedale, ANC, Nargoon, Sedalia, AYR, Carabinier, Pinay,SVY, Jay Tees, Tirrikieetc. The herd comprises of both E andF grades in both horned and poll form.

The stud is building up on poll blood lines in both E andF grades. Bulls which are being used now are from Rosedale,ANC and Boongatti (a son of Pinay).

These bulls have been producing some excellent progenyand this will be the first production sale.

Bruce has worked with cattle all of his life having stud cat-tle in 1972 including a Melbourne Show Grand Championbull. He then moved into cross bred Charolais and then pro-gressed into stud Charolais. His family on both sides havebeen in the cattle industry.

Cattle are situated in Northern Victoria (Kerang/ SwanHill) and Crossover, Victoria (West Gippsland). Replacementcows are evaluated for temperament, confirmation, fertilityand production. Cows are both white and red factor and theyare catering for beef production.

Pasture Rehabilitator with front coulters and rear aerating roller.

It lifts and cracks, aeratesand penetrates like no otherimplement. Use theRehabilitator Ploughinstead of Rippers, chiselploughs, Discs, Rotary hoesor power Harrows.

The Fix Rehabilitatorplough is designed toloosen and lift the soil byallowing the soil to crackalong natural lines. TheTusk rollers till the top-soilproducing a seed-bed andleaving the soil loose andaerated and able to captureand hold moisture.

Features: ● Relatively Low

Horsepower requirement

● Machines are availablefrom 1.5m to 6 metres

● Linkage and trailed● Extra sturdy frameThe parabolic Tines can

penetrate up to 500 mm,and are fitted with reversiblechisel points. The two reartusk rollers have a levellingmechanism and heightadjustment.

Soil is lifted, the surface iscultivated, and crop residueis partially incorporated tospeed-up decomposition.Often cereal crops, legumesand maize can be re-seededafter a one pass cultivation.

Most beneficial organismsin the soil are aerobic; mostdetrimental organisms inthe soil are anaerobic.Good aeration will inhibitthe damaging organismsand encourage the benefi-cial ones. This will be ahealthier soil which willmineralise and recyclenutrients more effectivelyand provide a more sustain-able system.

Sow your pasture and fodder crops with theHatzenbichler Vertikator pasture renovator

Vertikator renovating pasture available from Graham Wood Machinery site C26.

The natural way for pas-ture seed to germinate isnear the surface, in contactwith the soil, bury the seedit dies. Sowing in lines orrows doesn’t make any senseeither, as the empty spacesbetween the rows will allowweeds to grow with obviousloss of production.

Apart from the time, dieseland effort required to sowpasture, the cost of qualitypasture seed needed for atotal re-seeding is in thevicinity of $100 to $200 perhectare in high rainfall andirrigation areas.

The best way to establishpasture is by placing theseed in contact with the soilevenly spaced over thewhole area, not in rows.When germination occurs, ablanket cover of new pastureseedlings will ensure fasttotal establishment of newpasture.

This will help suppress theweeds and bring the pastureinto full production earlier.Achieving this has a signifi-cant economic benefit.

The best machine by farfor this task is the HATZEN-BICHLER VERTIKATOR.This machine is designedfor sowing pastures intoeither worked ground ormore importantly into exist-ing pastures, either to reju-venate or totally re-sow with-out the need to cultivate, atspeeds of up to 15km/h andwith a low HP requirement.

The Vertikator levels, har-rows, seeds and rolls topress the soil around theseed for optimal germina-tion all in one fast pass.

The versatile Vertikator isable to broadcast seed just

as effectively on rough rockycountry or river flats and isexcellent for both pasturemanagement and renova-tion as it is for sowing sum-mer fodder crops suchlucerne, brassicas, millet etc.into cultivated soil.

The EXAKTOR seed-boxes are ground-driventhrough cassettes with sever-al ratios and the seed dropson to a metal deflector platewhich fans out the seed togive an even distributionover the entire paddock.The Exaktor and new WIXseed-boxes handle seeds

from clovers to peas, pas-ture grasses to cereals. Bothof these boxes are also avail-able as separate items tomount on top of power har-rows, chisel plows, aeratorsand cultivators.

On display at Farm Worldwill be the WIX seed-box,the AIR 8 pneumatic boxescover widths up to 6 metreswith 8 outlets and veryaccurate as individuallymetered.

And 1.0m to 3.0m Exaktorseed boxes at very specialand attractive prices.

of pasture species rightthrough. Every farm canimprove their pasture andhence their productivity.

The AVR Spirit 6200 potato harvester will be on display at the Vin Rowe Farm Machinery siteat Farm World.

As one of the founding exhibitors at thefirst “Field Days” in 1963 Vin Rowe isproud to be involved with Farm World fora 53rd straight year.

In keeping with 2015’s theme of “FarmingProductivity”, Vin Rowe will be showcasingits range of premium agricultural machin-ery designed to increase farm efficiencyand output.

Perhaps the biggest impact on farm pro-ductivity that Vin Rowe has been involvedin is the introduction of mechanisation inplanting, harvesting and storing of vegeta-bles.

Originally a tractor and hay machinerydealer servicing the Warragul area, founderVin Rowe was one of the first in the indus-try to see that farm mechanisation in thehorticultural sector was the future.

The company became involved with anumber of mainly European manufactur-ers of vegetable planting and harvestingequipment. Notable brands at the timeincluded the Underhaug range of potatoplanters and harvesters and the Asa-Liftrange of vegetable harvesters.

At this early stage, machinery was still rel-atively small compared to the machinerywe see today.

Today Vin Rowe is the Australianimporter and distributor of AVR Potatoplanting and harvesting equipment and isAsa-Lift vegetable machinery. Compared tothe early range of Underhaug single rowlinkage mounted machines today’s range oftrailed AVR Harvesters come in single andtwo row options with up to a 9 tonnebunker!

As vegetable farms have got bigger, grow-ers have had to increase productivity andVin Rowe’s range of vegetable machinerycertainly helps with this aim.

Vin Rowe will be showcasing its range ofAVR machinery as well as a number ofother brands of machinery designed toincrease on farm efficiency at its stand atFarm World 2015.

As in 2014, the company will have a 4metre x 3 metre big screen on site to showa number of videos showing machinery inaction.

5 leaf ryegrass for you

Most science has said rye grass can only grow threeleaves.

This has been replicated and exhibited on the major-ity of Gippsland dairy farms for years.

You only have to walk through a pasture that, forsome reason has not been grazed at ‘3 leaf’ and youwill find examples of practical, on-farm evidenceaccompanied by bothersome ‘rust’ at this time of year.

Also, delayed silage cutting can lead to largeamounts of dead, yellow, decomposing grass in thebase.

However, if you adjust your agronomy you canchange everything including the option to graze at 3leaf or even 5 leaf with no lost potential. Silage cropsalso hold a better return on your dollar investmentwhen you drop and wrap more green leaf.

Aggressive tillering and crowns that ‘close the rows’for a dense, persistent sward are benefits you willexperience.

See Total Agronomy at Farm World, phone, or emailto get the ball rolling and Roy Watson will walk youthrough the following steps.

After a chat about what drives stable leaf develop-ment and a look at examples, you can choose to gofurther by allowing Total Agronomy to take some soilsamples. This is to set the bench marks.

Total Agronomy uses SWEP soil lab but is happy touse a lab of your choosing as long as they provide lev-els for all #13 minerals essential for optimum plantgrowth.

Based on your soil test they prescribe a fertiliser pro-gram.

Total Agronomy also provides an estimated budgetcosting for each tonne of D.M. required for yourherd’s 300 day lactation. They know what is needed tofully feed dairy cows.

If you choose to go still further, you can apply gran-ular fertilisers via your normal supplier and they makearrangements to apply Basix Trace Packs for soil sta-ble, plant available trace elements.

It is the traces based on your soil test which providetheir point of difference.

Monitoring production against budget is an ongoingfree service which they supply.

Roy Watson from Total Agronomy will be at FarmWorld or phone Roy on 0428 526 581.

Pump out waste with DumacDumac Distributors P/L is a 100 per cent Australian

owned and operated company, manufacturing and sellingour own brand of waste disposal pumps since 1963.

We manufacture with a maximum of Australian madematerials.

The first model was the “Filter-Cut” pump which is stillmanufactured and has been updated over the years butwith the important key features retained in today’s model.

Originally it was a horizontal unit with the body cast intothe pit wall and the motor mounted above the pit, whichhad problems.

These were overcome by our first vertical column wastepump, the first in Australia and possibly the world for thisapplication.

The “Filter-Cut” pump worked well, but like all otherpumps it was subject to excessive wear. A decision wasmade to go in a different direction with the wet end, itwould not have the cutting action and agitation of the“Filter-Cut” but be tough enough to handle abrasive andlarge solids.

The “Ruffy” pump model was released September 1974with great success and did so well it still retains the mainfeatures of the original and has only had 2 modificationsin that time and they were both done within the first yearafter its release.

The “Filter-Cut” pump comes in 2 outlet sizes, 11/2”and 2” BSP and in column lengths to suit pit depths from2’6” (760mm) to 12’ (4.57m) all have an external agitatorblade that is attached to a 75mm extended impeller nutwhich are both made from case hardened steel.

This together with replaceable hardened steel tips fittedto the faces of the impellor vanes and a hardened steelperforated plate with a clearance of approximately .020”combine to agitate and cut up solids, it is a true cuttingaction not just bashing.

The 11/2” model can have motors from 2Hp – 7.5Hp(1.5kW - 5.5kW) with a maximum of 28m shut off head or680l/min open discharge.

The 2” model can have motors from 5.5Hp – 25Hp

(4kW – 18.5kW ) with a maximum of 73m shut off head or1450l/min open discharge.

The “Ruffy” pump at present has a 2” BSP outlet withcolumn lengths to suit pit depths from 2’6” (760mm) to 6’(1.83m), it has a large open steel impellor with a heavywalled cast iron casing.

Suction is unique, in that it is from above the casing andwhen in operation there is negative pressure in the col-umn and therefore does not require any seals.

Standard operation for the “Ruffy” is direct coupled witha 3Hp (2.2kW) 1440 rpm motor, depending on the dis-tance or liquid being pumped may need a 4Hp (3kW)motor, where higher output is required it can be belt driv-en with a 5.5Hp – 7.5Hp (4kW – 5.5kW) motor, alsobecoming popular is in 3phase operation, it is direct cou-pled with the larger Hp and a variable speed drive.

The output is from 24m – 35m shut off head or from980l/min – 1200/min open discharge.

The “Filter – Cut” range of pumps are most suitablewhere there are softer solids in suspension, heavy sedi-ment or high heads.

The most common applications are in Piggeries,Abattoirs, Wineries and food processing plants or similaroperations.

The “Ruffy” range of pumps are most suitable wherethere are hard or abrasive solids or very high volumes overshorter distances with low power requirements and mini-mal maintenance.

The most common applications are in Dairies, Abattoirs,Wineries and in recent years some mining applications.

None of the pumps will pump plastic bags or bailingtwine, but at the same time under normal circumstancesthey will not damage the pumps and both the “Filter –Cut” and “Ruffy” pumps can be run dry without damage.

Dumac Pumps are also agents for the Teco range ofelectric motors and variable speed drives and the Ebararange of pumps which have everything from domestic sys-tems, borehole, submersibles and mining pumps.

Get 10 Years Farm Battery Life

Look for RECHARGE Battery Revitalizer display on site E3,Debbie and Gerard Anselmi will be happy to assist you.

Sulphation is a major problem with lead-acid batteries and the less they’re used theworse it is.

“All batteries sulphate,” says GerardAnselmi of RECHARGE Battery Revitalizer& Conditioner, “you buy them with sulpha-tion and they only get worse till they die.”

A RECHARGE treatment will dissolvethose sulphur ions back into the electrolyteto hold the charge again.

“The battery regains its capacity and stopscorrosion of lead plates,” says Anse lmi, “anda lot of farmers in our RECHARGE Condit-ioning Program are getting eight to 10 yearsfrom most batteries. Simply dose them early,treat every 2-3 years and keep themcharged.”

Please note: no longer available from ‘CRT’but Gerard and Debbie will be at Farm

World again this year as usual on site E-3. The 500ml farmer pack works out at $4 per

car battery or $7 to treat an N-70. A more cost effective two litre commercial

pack is also available and that pack can alsobe purchased online at www.recharge.net.nzor on Ebay.

As RECHARGE is acid based it is danger-ous goods and expensive to freight; the twolitre bottle is therefore the only one that theysell directly and it is far cheaper at the fielddays.

And yes you can treat sealed batteries. SeeGerard at the show and ask him how oremail him - gerard@recharge. net.nz

MilkRite – Revolutionises milkingMouthpiece Vented Triangular Liner Technology is delivering the goods for local farm

If there is one great truism in dairy farm-ing, it would be that the more comfortablethe cows are, the higher the milk produc-tion. It is also true that the more that crosscontamination can be reduced, the betterthe bottom line result for the farmer.

However, finding the best products or pro-duction systems can be a difficult and time-consuming process. Look at the choice ofdairy liners currently on the market –Round, Square, Triangular, Vented, NonVented, Round with sleeve… the list goes on.

Some liner manufacturers claim fastermilking, lower somatic cell counts, improvedteat health, better fitting to the cow’s teats.

So, who do you believe?Experienced Daviesway Milking

Technician Geoff Mathews who is based inWarragul, agrees with the dilemma farmersface. “Yes, it’s a difficult process, howeverwith so many factors to take into account,farmers must make good, informed deci-sions to get the best out of their herd andmilking system,” Mr Mathews said.

Avon Rubber make an estimated 50 mil-lion liners for a number of major brandseach year, however sell the MouthpieceVented Triangular Liners through their owncompany Milkrite. (www.milkrite. co.uk)

In the USA, 30 per cent of dairies haveconverted to the Milkrite system – approxi-mately three million cows are milked everyday.

Daviesway is the Australian distributor for

Milkrite and currently has over 100 dairiesusing Milkrite’s innovative liner technology.

Highly reputable local farmer Andrew Gaulruns a 40 bail rotary dairy, milking over 320cows twice per day. He has been using theMouthpiece Vented Triangular Liners foralmost 3 years with great success.

Mr Gaul said, “Exceptional cow comfort,lower somatic cell counts, improved teathealth and faster milking l expected, howev-er, what impressed me the most was howwell my cows milk out” Andrew noted somecows only required one trip around insteadof the usual two and could not believe howdry the teats were when the cups areremoved.

The NEW mouthpiece vented triangularliner design combined with the triangularmoulded lightweight shell has in turn led toreduced slips and kick-offs, again increasingefficiency in the dairy at milking time.

Mr Mathews said that because the air isintroduced at the top through the ventedmouthpiece there is reduced splash back onthe teat – limiting the opportunity for crosscontamination.

A recent Belgian study showed reducedclinical mastitis in farms using theMouthpiece Vented Triangular Liners”, hesaid. “We are receiving the same results inAustralia and continue to monitor the mas-titis results closely.

“Our franchisees are well known andrespected by the local communities theyoperate within,” said Mr. Morley.

“The franchisees have experience inbuilding in their local area. They know thebest local trades and services to use andtheir experience allows them to advisecustomers on the best options for theirnew home”

G.J. Gardner Homes has come to berecognized as the custom home builderswithout the price tag. With 100’s of plansavailable there is an option that will suitevery buyer.

Steering a continuous course Bob Steer is an icon in the agriculture industry, having been

around the traps at Australian field days for more than half acentury and travelling internationally to showcase livestockproducts as well.

The 91-year-old former marine engineer, who lives inMelbourne, founded Steer Manufacturing in 1957 after identi-fying a gap in the market.

“At the time electric welders were coming onto the market,but when there wasn't much equipment that was readily avail-able,” Mr Steer said.

“There was no cheap equipment for farmers to bend the pipeor work steel.”

Mr Steer who grew up on a farm in Gippsland, worked close-ly with farmers to develop livestock control equipment in theearly days, including cattle yards.

His persistence paid off and after many years of attendingfarm field days he developed an award-winning product range.

“I built up a huge range of metal equipment and a wholerange of that sort of stuff, and a lot of it has been continuedon,” he said.

“I did about 25 overseas shows exhibiting the products in theUnited Kingdom, including royal shows, and events inCalifornia and even China.”

Mr Steer said his passion for the industry had remained afterall these years, and he credited the farmers of that.

“When you’re my age you have got to keep busy, this is myretirement before I get old and retire,” he said with a laugh.

“You get to know a lot of people at the field days; they are asocial activity too. A lot of people come up and speak to you”.

He encouraged visitors who were looking to work steel orpipe to visit Steer Manufacturing’s site at Farm World.

Mr Steer’s son, Simon Steer, acquired the business in 1998.For more information, visit Steer Manufacturing at site C19 at

Farm World or go to www.steeraust.com.auEditorial courtesy Rhiannon Gavalakis of Mc Pherson Media

Group.

Farm World veteran, Bob Steer, will attend Farm Worldfor the 53rd time this year. He is the longest exhibitor.

Two of the most excitingKrone 2015 product releas-es are the new generation ofSwadro TC (CentreDelivery) and Swadro TS(Side Delivery) double rotorrakes.

In 2012 an extensive sur-vey was conducted by Profitmagazine throughoutEurope to establish whatareas customers want moreperformance out of thererakes. The result - cleanerforage quality with a lesscontamination and fasterraking speeds.

Krone has developed thisnew range of trailed Swadrotwin rotor rakes that featuresubstantial upgrades whichbenefit farmers and con-tractors alike.

The new generationSwadro rakes feature an allnew lift tine design. Due tothe forward position of thetine rods the crop is liftedup the length of the tine toeffectively lift the crop offthe ground.

By effectively lifting thecrop up the tine and off theground the risk of contami-nation is minimised whichon the other hand improvesthe quality of the forage.

Due to a cleaner rakingperformance you can nowincrease forward speedwithout compromising for-age quality thus increasingoverall efficiency.

Krone has also identifiedthe importance of transportand storage height of rakes,new generation rakes cannow be folded to under 4mwithout having to get out ofthe cab of the tractor.

To further lower the heightfurther use the tine armfolding function on theKrone rakes which comesas standard in Australia.

By folding the tine armsthis eliminates the need toremove arms and storethem on the machine inorder to get an even lowertransport and storageheight.

Due to the harsherAustralian conditions theKrone engineers wanted tostrengthen these new gener-ation rakes making somesignificant structuralchanges.

Due to longer operationhours and tough conditionsthe rakes have beenstrengthened with a 5mmthick steel frame, new guardrails with a curved finishand a redesigned rear axlethat places less stress on theaxle.

In Australia we see a lot ofpug hole country so to helpcombat the stresses placedon rakes, major changeshave been made to theundercarriage increasingthe durability and longevityof the rakes.The newSwadro rakes still encom-pass the tried and testedfeatures.

The maintenance-freerotor gearboxes have aheavy duty unlubricatedDuramax cam track, whichcomes with a three yearstandard warranty assuringcustomers of reliability foryears to come.

These new generationrakes also come with theever reliable Krone ‘Jet

Late lactationmilk fever

Late lactation milk fever can often be dueto cows milking harder towards the end oflactation and the possibility of not havingenough calcium left in her reserves.

Cows need calcium for bone and teethformation, transmission of nerve impulses,muscle excitability, cardiac regulation,blood clotting and the activation and stabil-isation of enzymes.

Basically, it is a very important mineral tothe cow and makes up nearly two percent ofher body weight.

Most farmers would have seen milk fevermost commonly in the herd immediatelyafter calving.

Milk fever occurs due to the inability todigest and utilise dietary calcium, ormobilise bone calcium quickly enough tosatisfy demands for milk production.

The frequency of late lactation milk feverincreases with:

● cold, wet weather conditions● higher producing cows● as the age of the cow increases so does

the risk● higher body condition score cows● jerseys seem to be more susceptible.It is most important for the late lactation

milk fever cows to be fed a lead feed rationlike CopRice lead feed prior to their nextcalving.

The anionic salts help the cow absorb cal-cium from her diet and at the same timemobilise more calcium from her bones.

Cows with late lactation milk fever will beat a greater risk of developing milk feveraround calving.

For more information call CopRice onfree call 1800 267 742 and speak to a nutri-tionist today or visit the CopRice Stockfeedsat Farm World site A32.

CopRice pellets can complement your on farm feed resources to maximise the production andprofitability of your dairy herd.

New large flat pack watertank at Polyweld

When The Beetles wererecording “PolythenePam” on their AbbeyRoad album, TheDonaldson’s were weldingup polythene sheets withan iron on their lounge-room floor to make thefirst home-made above-ground swimming pool.

This made an instantsuccess in the neighbor-hood and a commercialversion of the “PolythenePool” soon followed andPolyweld Pty Ltd was cre-ated.

These days Polyweldemploys 25 people inCampbellfield, Victoria,and are seen by all asinnovative industry lead-ers of polyester-vinylproducts.

Polyweld specialize intruck curtains and arelaunching their new mar-ket offering a Large FlatPack Water Tank at thisyear’s Farm World atLardner Park.

The tank kits have every-thing you need to build atank of your choice andare easily transported andstored on a single pallet.There are four sizes ofwater tank offered, 30, 56,104 and 166 thousandlitres. All with a 25 yearwarranty contract avail-able.

Easily erected in one dayby two men, the site needsto be compact and level.

The hot dipped galva-nized frame and rooftrusses of the tank arebolted together withcoach bolts.

To fit the extra toughliner you simply hook theliner to the frame fromthe outside before you fitthe wall cladding, solvingthe impossible task ofhow to attach the liner toinside of the tank wallwithout standing on theliner.

The water pressure iscontained by the extrastrong “Tenacitex” hoopswhich must be hooked tothe legs of the frame.

The simplest example of an electric powered chipper fordomestic customers.

It was late October lastyear when their team drove700 kilometres fromGermany through theBrenner Pass in the Alps toa town south of Lake Gardato visit, above all things, acompany that makes a veryinteresting range of chip-pers.

They knew the Negri bio-shredders were different butwanted to see the quality oftheir product and the wholeapproach to quality control.

They were immediatelyimpressed not just by themachines but their wholeattitude to looking after cus-tomers, including great soft-ware for ordering parts,especially with the time dif-ferences.

The heart of the machineis a cutting action with acombination of knives andhammers, which is patent-ed.

The variety of chipperscovers domestic through tocommercial operators. Inaddition the material thatcan be mulched/chippedcovers branches, leaves,domestic waste, palm treesand even pallets.

The accompanying photois the simplest example ofan electric powered chipperfor domestic customers.However, the range extendsto chippers powered byDiesel and Petrol engines ofdifferent horsepower, thosethat are driven by tractorswith a PTO device and evenunits which are on tracksand move themselves.

A great quality range

backed by a European man-ufacturer and a 2 year war-ranty. At Chipstar Australia,based in Kilsyth, Victoria,the team are proud to repre-sent Negri in Australia. Theybelieve that they provide avery high standard of after-sales service.

Can you afford not to buyAustralian Made?

Sproutwell Greenhouses & GreenSmart Living is proud tocontinue to provide new designs and styles making their rangeof greenhouses unique and up-to-date with technology.

Leading farm machinerymanufacturer, John BerendsImplements, continues toservice the agricultural sectorwith Australian made, highquality and well priced farmimplements.

Operating since 1966 andstill family owned, the com-pany is one of the few of itskind, still keeping as much ofthe range made in Australiaas possible.

General Manager, DerrickBerends, says “A growingnumber of AustralianManufacturers have eitherfallen by the wayside or havereverted to importing theirproduct out of China.

This can result in cheaperproducts available for theconsumer.

Unfortunately, it is almostalways at the expense ofquality.

Many a hobby farmer hasbeen caught out thinking“we haven’t got much workto do with it so we can’t jus-tify spending much”.

Unfortunately, poor qualitymachinery and the hours it isused don’t necessarily followany set pattern.

For example, a slasherblade made from the wronggrade material will just aslikely break on the first stoneit strikes as it will the 1000thstone.

Our staff would take weeklyphone calls from customerswho purchased poor qualityimported brands, looking forways to convert their productover to a Berends.”

Despite this increasing pres-sure from cheap imports,Berends continues to be oneof the leading manufacturersin tractor implements inAustralia.

Part of this reason is theirability to keep designing dif-ferent products to suit theever changing market.

Although having a largeproduct range can have itschallenges, the diversity of itkeeps production constantlybusy.

A recent example of thechanging range is the new3.0m trailing grader which

was first built as a one-off in2009.

It was soon discovered thatthere was a niche market fora well priced heavy duty trail-ing grader, something whichis unlikely to be importedfrom Asia.

The machine weighs 2 tonsand is ideal for maintainingroads without thecosts/problems of buying asecond hand road grader.

With hydraulic angle, tiltand wheel lift, track mainte-nance has never been so easyand affordable.

Year of theSheep Handler

It’s that time of year again when China,Australia’s largest mutton export partner, ispreparing to celebrate a new lunar year.

According to the Chinese Zodiac Calendar,2015 is the Year of the Sheep.

Meanwhile in Australia, Clipex, an innova-tive stockyard and fencing company is busypreparing for what they call, the year of theClipex Sheep Handler.

The Clipex Sheep Handler started fromhumble beginnings in 1994 with NZ farmerRobin Fagin.

Robin was a sheep farmer who developeda handler to help reduce the hard workinvolved in handling sheep.

The next 17 years were spent refining hisdesigns and developing a substantial sheephandling business in NZ.

In 2012 Robin approached Clipex withsome exciting new design improvements forsheep catching, including the rate of flow,level of access, portability and more.

Over the last two years, Clipex has spentsignificant resources further developing andrefining the handler ready for the Australianmarket.

The Clipex Sheep Handler is a compact,towable farm implement that features offroad independent suspension making itincredibly easy to transport.

But when it’s ready to use, the drafting andpre-catch section neatly fold out, forming avery impressive handler.

Clipex General Manager, Ned Olsson, says

that a lot of work has gone into the inde-pendent suspension on the machine toensure that vibration doesn’t damage theelectronics during transport.

“But the innovation by no means stopsthere,” he says citing the significant productdevelopment that they’ve been working busi-ly on for nearly two years.

The Clipex Sheep Handler has three elec-tric jacks, which means you can easily adjustthe machine to work at the perfect heightwithout busting your back.

It’s hot dipped galvanised with replaceablebushes on all the moving parts. It featureselectronics that are designed and built inAustralia and the best pneumatic valve bankthat money can buy.

But more important is the workflow of thehandler.

The handler features a pre-catch, innova-tive anti-backing and flap doors that worktogether with amazing new eye sensor tech-nology that keep sheep flowing.

It can also automatically catch sheep withincredible accuracy, has a roll over tilt func-tion and lift flaps that provide unparalleledaccess to the animal, all with minimal effort.

The handler comes with load bars includ-ed, and when used with a suitable scale indi-cator, will weigh and draft sheep automati-cally.

If you’re interested in having a look at aClipex Sheep Handler, come and see themon site B31-34.

A Claas Scorpion telehandler will be on display and availablefor a test drive at Farm World.

CLAAS SCORPION telehandlers have more sting

The Solar Powered Automatic Gate Opener is so conven-ient, you can now remotely open the gate in the rain or atnight, without getting out of your vehicle.

After passing through the gate, it automatically closesbehind you and locks the gate with a positive locking system,using a locking shaft and a locking bracket that cannot bepushed open, providing you with maximum security.

The Drive Unit is a heavy duty, 24volt swing arm, metalgeared mechanism that provides long life, reliability and fastgate opening/closing time of typically 12 to 13 seconds .

The system comes with two batteries to provide you withadditional open/closes to cover extended periods of little orno sunshine. This amount of battery power will provide 500-600 gate openings/closings without charging, on a normalfarm gate.

The gate opener is available as Solar Powered that requiresno electrical power at the gate, low voltage that is cabledfrom a nearby power outlet (no electrician required), or240volt system which does require power to be cabled to thegate. All systems have battery backup when there is no sun-light (for solar) or loss of electrical power such as a blackout

(for 240volt or low voltage).Visitor buttons can be added to the gate system, which

allows for visitors who do not have a remote control trans-mitter. These visitor buttons can be hard wired back to thecontrol box, or can be wireless pushbuttons which do notrequire cabling (no trenches to be dug). For security, a wire-less keypad can be installed, which requires a PIN numberto gain entry.

Additional options can be included, like photo electricsensors to stop the gate closing on slower vehicles, such aslarge trucks or farm machinery, in ground vehicle loops toopen the gate when a vehicle drives over the loop andremote controlled gate lock so that all visitor entry buttonscan be disabled from your vehicle as you leave the propertyor retire at night.

Other options also include remote controls to control yourgate from up to 2km or alarms to warn the gate is openingup to 2km away.

The gate controller kits come as an easy to install DIY kitwhich is always supported by the team during and afterinstallation. See them at Farm World Site CB113.

Leading European farmmachinery manufacturer,CLAAS, has completelyrevamped its range ofSCORPION telehandlerswith six new models nowavailable in Australia.

Capable of lifting between3.0 and 5.5 tonnes to a max-imum height of 6.0 or 8.8metres, the new series fea-tures increased hydraulicpower, advanced operatingdynamics and operatorcomfort.

CLAAS Harvest CentreGippsland Sales Director,Guy Fordham, says telehan-dlers are the next ‘big thing’in farm machinery.

“You can do just aboutanything with a SCORPI-ON,” he says.

“It can deftly operate arange of implements,including buckets, forks,

bale hands and silage grabs.“It can also be fitted with

a wide choice of hitchesand trailer brakes to towloads of up to 20 tonnes.

“Many of our customersare telling us their telehan-dler is quickly becomingthe most used machine ontheir property.”

The top-of-the line SCOR-PION 9055 can lift 5.5tonnes to a maximum of 8.8metres.

“It is ideal for highthroughput materials han-dling, such as those foundin feedlots, dairy operationsand large-scale forage har-vesting and transport,” Guysays.

“At the other end of thescale, the compact 6030 iscapable of lifting 3.0 tonnesto a maximum of 6.0metres.

“It is well-suited to smalleragricultural operations orfor working within confinedspaces.”

The new models feature anew frame and chassisdesign that achieves a lowcentre of gravity.

“In the lowered position,the telescopic arm is com-pletely flush with the frame,which not only ensures ahigh level of stability butdelivers an unobstructedview to the right of themachine,” Guy says.

“The entire loading systemhas also been re-designed.

“The lifting, tilting and tel-escopic cylinders are fittedwith an end-of-travel damp-ing system, which preventimpacts in the loader.

“The loader also has a

vibration damping systemthat automatically activatesonce the ground speedreaches 7.0 km/h.”

Other innovations includea ‘smart handling’ functionthat automatically adjuststhe loader’s drop rateaccording to the weight andangle of the load and oper-ating mode (bucket, stack,vertical lift and manual).

“The higher and heavierthe carried load, the lowerthe maximum drop rate,”Guy says.

“When the telescopic armis fully retracted, the over-load protection is deactivat-ed to allow bucket fillingand pushing operations tobe carried out at fullpower.”

The automatic bucketreturn positioner makesrepetitive work even easier.

“One press of a buttonmoves the boom to a partic-ular position which can beeasily stored during opera-tion,” he says.

“This means that duringquick loading processes, theequipment can be preciselyaligned at any time and asoften as required.”

Another new feature is thepressure release for thethird control circuit on thetelescopic arm, enablingattachments to be changedquickly and easily.

The 9055 and 7055 are fit-ted with a 4.1 litre fourcylinder Deutz engine thathas a rated output of 115kW (156 hp).

It is fitted with self-clean-ing diesel particulate filter(DPF) and maintenance-

free diesel oxidation catalyst(DOC) technology.

Both models have ahydraulic conveying capaci-ty of 187 L/min.

The four smaller modelshave a 3.6 L Deutz enginewith a rated output of 90kW (122 hp) and ahydraulic conveying capaci-ty of 140 L/min.

All feature the CLAASVARIPOWER variabletransmission that producesoptimal torque at speedsfrom zero to a maximumspeed of 40 km/h.

The three driving ranges –“Snail” 0-7 km/h, “Tortoise”(0-15 km/h) and “Hare” (0-20/30/40 km/h – can bechanged ‘on the go’ andunder full load by pressinga button.

CLAAS’ ‘perfectwave’ namedMachine of

the Year

The Disco 9200 is the flagship of Claas’ industry-leadingmower range.

The Claas Axion 800 will be on show at Farm World this year.

A STATE-OF-THE-ART front-and-rear mower combina-tion has been recognised with a prestigious EuropeanMachine of the Year award at the recent SIMA trade fair inParis.

With an operating width of 9.1 metres and optional con-ditioner and automatic swathing functions, the DISCO9200 is the flagship of CLAAS’ industry-leading mowerrange.

CLAAS Greenline Group Product Manager, LukeWheeler, says the 9200 DISCO incorporates CLAAS’s newMAX CUT cutterbar.

“This innovative design incorporates a new one-piece,wave-shaped bar support that allows the cutting disc mod-ules to be set much further forward than the former P CUTcutterbar,” he says.

“In combination with the specially-formed wear inserts,this creates an enlarged cutting area and ensures optimalcutting quality, efficiency and durability.

“In turn, the new inserts have different geometries thathave been optimised as each pair of blades moves towardsor away from each other.”

Luke says the new cutterbars, which have already beenincorporated into 28 new DISCO mounted and trailedmodels spanning 2.6 to 9.1 m, incorporate a range of otherengineering innovations.

“MAX CUT has an exceptionally high level of torsionalflexibility thanks to a special bolting process that achievesthe same strength of welded seams,” he says.

“The extra-wide cutterbar skids guide dirt and foreignmaterial backwards and guarantee a clean finish, minimis-ing wear and protecting pasture cover.

“The drive train of the new MAX CUT is designed so thatit can be run from 850 rpm, reducing fuel consumption byup to 20 percent.

“All told, these are professional mowers that deliver a per-fect result under all operating conditions.”

MAX CUT also incorporates the proven quick bladechange system and SAFETY LINK safety module.

“In the event of a collision, the module shears at a pre-determined breaking point,” Luke says.

“The cutting disc is held in the module by a bolt and can-not fly off.

“The module can be replaced quickly and easily and themower unit is therefore quickly ready for use again.”

MAX CUT is manufactured at CLAAS’ state-of-the-art for-age harvesting equipment plant, which recently underwenta 20 million redevelopment.

Located in Bad Saulgau in southern Germany, the factoryproduces the entire range of CLAAS ‘Greenline’ harvestingtechnology, including DISCO mowers, VOLTO condition-ers, LINER rakes, QUANTUM loader wagons and CAR-GOS dual purpose forage wagons.

It is the first time Europe’s coveted “Machine of the Year”awards have been presented at SIMA.

Previously announced every two years at the Agritechnicatrade fair in Hanover, Germany, the awards will now be pre-sented annually, alternating between the biennial Germanand French exhibitions.

A total of 19 agricultural technology journalists from eightEuropean countries, under the coordination of French mag-azine Terre-net, awarded prizes across 17 different categoriesfor the best innovations in agricultural technology.

The 2016 “Machine of the Year” awards will be announcedat Agritechnica in November 2015.

2014 Tractor of the Year debuts at Farm WorldTHE ALL-NEW CLAAS

AXION 800 advanced tech-nology tractor will be thestar attraction at the CLAASHarvest Centre site at thisyear’s Farm World.

With four models span-ning 200 to 270 horsepower,the 800 series fills the all-important gap between theARION 600/500 series (145to 184 hp) and the AXION900 series (280 to 400 hp).

CLAAS Harvest CentreGippsland Sales Director,Guy Fordham, says theAXION 800 features thesame successful design prin-ciples and technology as itslarger namesake.

“The AXION 800 featuresa long wheelbase, shortturning circle and 50/50weight distribution acrossboth axles,” he says.

All four models feature asix-cylinder 6.7 L FPTengine that complies withStage IV (Tier 4f) emissionstandards.

The two-stage emissionssystem consists of a mainte-nance-free diesel oxidation

catalytic converter(DOC/Oxicat) and a selec-tive catalytic reduction(SCR) converter.

“This engine provides upto eight per cent moretorque than the previousmodel with a constantpower range of up to 500rpm – and it’s incrediblyfuel efficient,” Guy says.

Independent testing con-ducted by leading Germanagricultural evaluation facil-ity, DLG, confirmed AXION850 is the most efficient ofall tractors in the 200 to 270hp category.

AXION 800 is equippedwith the same 6 x 4 HEXA-SHIFT transmission foundin the ARION 500/600series or the optionalCMATIC continuously vari-able transmission.

Alternatively, the steplessCMATIC transmission hasfour mechanical rangescapable of delivering preciseground speeds from 50m/hour to 50 km/h.

AXION 800 is configuredwith the tried-and-tested

ing achievements, givenCLAAS has been in the trac-tor market for little morethan a decade.”

Also on display will be aselection of incredibly ver-satile ‘everyday’ tractorsfrom the ARION 600/500(140 to 184 hp), ARION 400

(90 to 140 hp) and AXOS330 (75 to 102 hp) series.

CLAAS Harvest CentreGippsland is the regionalsales, service and supporthub for the entire range ofCLAAS, AMAZONE andother leading farm machin-ery brands.

CLAAS Information Systemas standard.

“CIS features mechanicalspools with two optionalelectronic spool valves andis ideal for customers whorequire a tractor with fewerelectronic controls,” Guysays.

“Operators who requiregreater control can specifythe intuitive CLAAS

Electronic onBoardInformation System(CEBIS).

“This is the same technol-ogy found in LEXION andJAGUAR harvesters andXERION and AXION 900high-horsepower tractors.”

AXION 800 is equippedwith a four-pillar cab, four-point cabin suspension,vibration damping for the

lifting gear and optionalfront axle suspension, sig-nificantly improving opera-tor comfort.

Other features include anair-suspended seat, fully-adjustable steering columnand unrestricted all-roundvisibility.

Best known as a globalleader in harvesting tech-nology, CLAAS has burstinto the Australian tractormarket over the past fiveyears with the release ofmore than 40 differentmodels across four ranges.

“Each model features thesame exacting levels of per-formance, efficiency, versa-tility, reliability and comfortthat have made CLAAS thebest in the business,” Guysays.

“Last year, a top-of the-line AXION 850, equippedwith CMATIC continuouslyvariable transmission andCEBIS operating system,was named 2014 Tractor ofthe Year and 2014 Machineof the Year at Agritechnica.

Recycled, World War II Design...Brand spanking new animal enclosure

Pictured with the Solid State Igloo small animal enclosuresare from left, product designer Mark Roberts and sales execu-tive Andrew Foot.

This story’s beginning started in early winter when I saw myfather hunting around the machinery shed for materials tobuild another portable animal shelter, just like the one theneighbour (a spitfire engineer) had built for his calves afterWorld War II.

This original shed is made of corrugated iron and hard-wood timber, and although showing its age now, has stoodthe test of time. It has raised countless calves and has had afew short comings.

The timber joints, cracks and crevices would hold bacteri-al scours and was difficult to sanitise.

Not only was it too short, but it had a strategic diagonalrafter and no matter how many times you banged your headon it, you were destined to do it again.

After a short discussion with my father, I convinced him Icould build him a taller, structurally sound, self-sustainedstructure with no beams out of high density recycled poly.This animal shelter is portable, without cracks or crevices,and professionally welded to produce a seamless finish.

The plastic is UV stabilised and has been used aroundAustralia for the last 15 years with no UV breakdown prob-lems.

After a few refinements on the prototypes, we have the costeffective portable animal shelter you see today. These fullyfunctional structures peg firmly to the ground making themfully wind resistant, hygienic and a simple lightweight longterm way of housing small animals, such as calves, sheep,goats and alpacas.

These stable and portable animal shelters can be movedvia ATV or tractor on skids to another location in the pad-dock.

Come and see them for yourself and talk to Mark Roberts,the product designer, or sales executives Wayne and Joy Footat the Farm World pasture, grain and vegetable display area,site 601. Or for more information call Wayne and Joy Footon 0400 978 320 for a metric quote.

Flying Doctors fly into Farm World

Flying Doctor dentist Alan Yeong.The Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) will again Farm

World from 26-29th March, offering visitors a chance toexplore a replica Flying Doctors plane fuselage and have afree teeth and mouth check-up provided by the RFDSVictoria Mobile Dental Care team.

As part of the oral health check-up, dentists from theRFDS Mobile Dental Care program will be available toprovide advice and a basic assessment which will includeteeth, gums and general oral health.

RFDS Victoria Chief Executive Scott Chapman said theFlying Doctors had identified areas where health specialistscould make a real difference in community health inVictoria.

“Mobile Dental Care is an example of our programs thatbring health services to communities that would otherwisehave great difficulty accessing specialist or even basic pri-mary health care,” Mr Chapman said.

“We have similar programs to deliver diabetes specialistcare and rural women’s GP services to rural communities.”

“The Flying Doctors rely on the support of the communi-ty to deliver these programs and Farm World is also achange to engage with our generous donors and support-ers.”

The RFDS Victoria stand will also feature the aeromed-ical simulator – a life-sized replica of a Flying Doctorsplane fuselage – giving visitors a chance to see what it’s likefor crews and patients inside a real Flying Doctors plane.

RFDS Mobile Dental Care has been operating since2012, visiting community health centres, schools, aged carefacilities, hospitals and other community centres acrossVictoria.

To donate to the Flying Doctors call RFDS Victoria on(03) 8412 0400 or go to www.flyingdoctor.org.au

Benefits of recycled water in both wet and dry times

Wastewater treatment systems and septic systems fromTaylex Tanks are now available in concrete and plastic.Check them out at site: BBP 22.

Taylex are the oldest and largest of the WastewaterTreatment Systems manufacturers in Australia.

They have been manufacturing AWTS (Aerated WastewaterTreatment Systems) and Septic Systems since 1969 and arestill Australian owned.

Taylex have a network of over 60 Distributor/Installers andService Agents. They have been a mainstay of the Gippslandwastewater Industry for over 40 years and they are still goingstrong.

Taylex introduced their new ABS (Advanced BlowerSystem) into the market some 4 years ago in their Concretetank. This system has now been released in Victoria in aworld’s first 5 chambered one piece plastic tank.

The Taylex ABS System takes in 100% of the wastewaterfrom and unsewered home and treats the water enough toallow the clear cleaned water to be irrigation back onto theproperty for irrigation. The newer system has power savingoptions and can be run on off-grid solar if required.

Benefits of AWTS systems come into play in dry timeswhen the water from the system can automatically irrigateyour back yard and in wet times makes sure that the water inthe back yard is clean and not smelly septic trenches that areoverflowing with the days stormwater. Irrigation is kept closeto the surface of the ground (approx. 150mm underground),and covers a larger area than standard trenches.

This allows for quick evaporation when the sun and windstarts up after rain and also means that the water is widerspread across your property for maximum irrigation.

Come in and speak to the Taylex installer at Farm Worldthis year and look at the system. Also chat with theirDistributors about install prices.

Mr Wildes states “We have been purchasing grain and hay from Evison Grain for the last seven years. Our two farms milk 750 cows at 1.5 tonne per cow per year. In order to achieve the highest milk production, we need to feed our cows grain, which provides the optimum balance of protein and ME levels.

After carrying out random feed tests, it was confirmed that the protein and ME levels indicated on all Evison documentation was correct.

We have been more than happy over the past seven years with the Evison Grain’s service. They offer a quality product at competitive prices.”

The vehicle’s architectureis completely new to theindustry and features a revo-lutionary, sit-in chassis thatis nimble and comfortableto operate.

The revolutionary, newdesign combines the sizeand nimble handling of theSportsman All-TerrainVehicle (ATV), and the con-fidence and comfort of theRANGER and RZR side-by-sides, in a rider-centricdesign with an easily-trans-portable 121.9cm width.

Powering the SportsmanACE is an all-new 32 horse-power ProStar™ electronicfuel injected (EFI) enginefeaturing an internal count-er-balance shaft for smooth,vibration-free power.

The cockpit’s flow-throughdesign also makes ingressand egress easy, and newside nets feature a metal rodto easily secure them bothfor clipping and positioningthe nets to the back of thevehicle while exiting.

The Sportsman ACE sys-tem eliminates the guess-work by automaticallyengaging when the riderneeds more forward tractionand then reverts back to

two-wheel drive automati-cally when the AWD is nolonger needed.

There is assured stoppingpower from the linked, four-wheel disc brakes withbraided stainless steel brakelines that provide optimumresponse and minimal fade.

For added protection,accessories such as doors,front and rear brushguards,rock sliders, and a variety ofcustom wheel and tyre pack-ages not only protect thevehicle but add a more cus-tomised look. To protect thedriver from the elements, a

Lock & Ride roof, wind-shield and rear panel installin seconds to offer a quicksolution for all climates.

The vehicle can carry upto 260kg of gear and theSportsman ACE is prewiredfor the installation of awinch with up to 3,500lb/1587kg of capacity. Thehardest-working DNA ofSportsman was furtherinstilled with a 680kg towingcapacity, for capability whenit’s time for serious workand there are more than 25accessories available.

Pasture, grain andvegetable display area

An impressive display of hundreds of pastureand fodder varieties have been a feature of FarmWorld over the past seven years and this yearwill be even more striking with the combinedpasture site expanding into food grains and veg-etables.

The expanded pasture, grain and vegetabledisplay area also focuses on the use of simpleand successful fertiliser regimes.

Farm World has grown to be Australia’s keypasture and fodder focused field days.

The Basix Trace Elements team have expand-ed the display to include a greater option ofvarieties highlighting the diversity of agricultureacross southern Australia.

The pasture display has identified and proventhe universally successful varieties of pastures,including grasses, legumes, herbs and brassicas.

The previous showing of 46 of the most suc-cessful varieties, some from each category, hasbeen added to by 60 new varieties to growalongside the old ones. Sown at the same time,with the same fertiliser, and irrigated at thesame time, comparisons will be clear for all tosee.

Included in the display are annuals, bi-annu-als and perennials of ryegrasses, and perennialsof cocksfoot, phalaris, brome, fescue and timo-thy grasses. Legumes, including clovers (sub,white, arrow, persian, crimson, rose, red,

berseem, balansa, and strawberry), medics (burr,hybrid, strand, barrel, and sphere), lucerne, andnon-bloating legumes (sulla, serradella, andbiserulla) will also be displayed, as well as chico-ry, plantain, brassicas and sugar beet.

The array of stockfeed cereal grains such asoats, barley, triticale, wheat, peas, and canola,has been expanded by adding grains such asrye, rice, safflower, chia, linseed, quinoa, ama-ranth, lentils, chickpeas and buckwheat.

Adzuki, black turtle, soya and mung beans,peanut and sesame round off the grains display.

The brand new vegetable display will reflectthe potential of different types in the region.

Recognising the significance of the potatoand pea growers in the region, these two vegeta-bles will be the main focus.

The display will include 13 currently relevantpotato varieties, and 12 pea varieties (snap,shelling, and snow), all of which are sown on anew base dressing granular fertiliser blend, anda new Basix Trace Element pack formulated forfast root zone dispersal.

There will also be a wide range of brassicasfrom broccoli to Asian greens and many typesof tomatoes, beets, cucurbits and lettuce vari-eties, including several heirlooms for generalinterest.

Why did you join the CFA?I had a couple of mates in the local

Leongatha South Brigade, I just thought Iwould give it a go. That was over 15 yearsago now, I was 19, I went along and it justsnowballed from there. Now I’m the captain,my brother is also a CFA volunteer and soare two of my nephews.

Captain, that’s quite a big role, how do youmanage your time between running a dairyfarm, having a family and being a CFAVolunteer? How much time do you spend atthe station?

Bugger all! It’s not hard; it’s really not hardto manage at all. Certain times of the year,sure it’s busy – I’m out harvesting and thepager goes off, and I think what do I do -sometimes sure, yes, I do drop everythingand go, and sometimes I just can’t and I’mconfident that there are enough people inthe brigade that can turn out and the truckwill always roll!

I think it just comes down to having a

great brigade that supports you, backs youup, helps out and shares the work load.Having good support at home is importanttoo.

During your time at CFA, or right backwhen you first joined – what has surprisedyou, what didn’t you expect to learn orexpect to get out of joining?

That’s a bit of a tricky question – I didn’treally have too many expectations, just goalong with it, get better and just continue tolearn as the years go on.

What would you say is the best thing aboutthe CFA?

The friendships you make, and continue tomake.

What advice do you have for anyone think-ing of volunteering with the CFA- What willthey get out of it?

My advice is - GO DO IT! You’ll get asense of enjoyment, community service, andself-satisfaction that you’re there to helpsomeone else in need.

Hilco Zuidema is the Captain at Leongatha South CFA Brigade.

New MF 9407S TelehandlerExtensive customer consultations have created the specifi-

cation for the MF 9407 S telescopic handler - which pres-ents completely new technology and features from the axlesupwards.

Completely new boom design and mounting pivot alongwith powerful new hydraulics mean the MF 9407S offers liftcapacities and heights that are ideally suited to a range ofapplications, while the new boom andmounting further improve loadingefficiency.

MF 9407S Telescopic Handler fea-tures:

Entirely new shorter, wider chassiscombines the benefits of superb sta-bility with exceptional manoeuvrabili-ty from standard four-wheel steer sys-tem. Two-range hydrostatic transmis-sion provides a true 40km/hr top roadspeed with the ability to fit wide tyres.

Completely new boom configura-tion with low rear pivot point for aclear view of the rear right-hand side;up to 190 litres/min closed centreload sensing (CCLS) hydraulics withfully proportional joystick control andboom float and boom suspensionoption. Choice of tool carriages to fitexisting attachments from wide rangeof manufacturers.

Great visibility through curved rearside screen

An innovative and patented curvedside and rear window fitted into thenew cab, coupled with the low (1.75m)boom mounting position, offers anunrestricted view to the rear right-hand side.

This unique design means there is no cab pillar to obstructthe view, offering the best vision in the industry - bar none.

The quiet spacious cab is 900mm wide, which providesplenty of shoulder room for even the largest operators.Clever use of a curved front windscreen – which extendsfrom the front right over the roof - also increases space andleg room.

Air conditioning and pneumatic seat suspension comestandard. Inside, the dashboard is located in the right corner,leaving an unobstructed view of the boom carriage andattachment.

The simple dashboard layout is easy to read. A shuttlereverse lever is mounted within a finger’s reach of the steer-ing wheel. A separate button is used to place the boom intothe float position. Boom suspension for transport is a valu-able option to increase comfort and stability for roadwork.

Great access to laterally, side-mounted engineAccess to the latest Perkins 4 cylinder engine and cooling

package is easy. Mounted on the right of the machine, theengine is fitted lengthways parallel to the boom, which

makes everything easy to reach. The hydrostatic andhydraulic pumps, fitted to the front of the engine, are alsoeasily accessible.

The MF 9407S has a 130hp, 1104D-ETA engine, which pro-vides often required extra power.

A cooling pack, which folds up for cleaning, is mounted atthe front of the engine compartment, above the hydraulic

pumps and the fan can be reversed forcleaning. The radiators and oil coolershave the capacity to cope with the mostarduous operating conditions.

Compact, strong and stable chassisA short, 2.87m wheelbase, and wide

chassis design provides a stable plat-form and offers top manoeuvrability aswell as low ground pressure from fittingwide tyres - including 460/70 R24 or500/70 R24 XMCL. The standard four-wheel steering and compact designensures an exceptional turning radiusthat allows the agile loaders to excel inconfined spaces.

The powerful hydrostatic gearbox sys-tem has two mechanical gears withelectric selection, with a two-speedsplitter for each speed. More comfortfor the operator is provided by a creep-er speed, which allows high revs to beused for fast boom responses at slowertravel speeds. These advanced featuresensure the machine is able to work atoptimum output all of the time. Thepowerful system also allows heavierloads to be towed safely and efficiently.

A strong, steel belly plate runs the fulllength of the chassis, providing unri-

valled protection when working on rough, uneven groundand in rutted tracks.

Boom benefits from best in class hydraulicsThe MF 9400 Series benefit from a new boom, with low

1.75m pivot point and the highest specifications to handlethe heaviest agricultural workloads. It has its own toolcarrier,that can be customised to fit existing attachments, to helpreduce costs.

The new 190 litres/min closed centre, load-sensing (CCLS)hydraulic pump provides best in class flowrates for a fast andpowerful response to improve loading cycle times. Preciseand smooth operation of all boom functions is ensured by anew proportional joystick, which is also equipped with but-tons for operating ancillary circuits.

A new, useful boom float function for scraping floors andloading off uneven surfaces is engaged at the touch of a but-ton. There is also the option of boom suspension to protectthe machine and operator from jarring.

Giltrap Bale Feeder ReleaseGiltrap have announced the release of

their proven range of bale feeders on to theAustralian market.

The Giltrap name is well known for highquality farm machinery and the bale feed-ers are no exception.

Giltrap took over the 30 year old DMLbrand in 2005 and the experienced designteam have worked with farmers to developeasy to operate, versatile and low mainte-nance bale feeders.

As with most trailed bale feeders the feedout area and the loading system do themost work.

Giltrap have paid particular attention tothe feed out area by locating the aggressivefeed bars at an optimum spacing to ensurebales of all types from hard to soft core areefficiently fed out.

Reliability, longevity and strength of drivechains are what most farmers look for. Theuse of large profile 7500 and 15000lb solidpin roller chains satisfies that desire. Chainadjusters on cast bearings make light workof chain tensioning if needed.

Fully enclosed drive shafts prevent feedfrom wrapping around them, and in turnsave time by not having to clean them.

The use of Giltrap’s proven cast bearingsrequire minimal service but have long last-ing benefits. A simple push or pull of thetractor’s hydraulic remote controls providefeeding out to either side.

On trailed feeders, safe loading of balesof various shapes and weights, plus theremoval of different types of wrapping is aserious consideration for all users.

Giltrap’s unique sequential hydraulicloading system provides peace of mindthat bales up to 1500kg in weight will beeasily and gently loaded onto the feed bed.

Full control of the bale at any positionduring loading further enhances thisprocess. Bales are securely spiked for load-ing, then lifted to a convenient position forthe removal of plastic or net wrap, andthen lowered carefully onto the feed bed.

Giltrap have designed the loading mech-anism in such a way that when the spikesare pulled from the bale, it is not lifted offthe feed bed.

Knowing where to position the spikes topick up the bale is simply taken care of byan ingenious stop on the lifting frame.

Stability is always a safety concern when

feeding out and that is why the GiltrapG2X2 has an adjustable axle and a swiveltowing eye.

The larger rolling diameter of the11.5/80x15.3 wheels make towing theG2X2 easy and in situations where moreflotation is required, wheels can be simplyupgraded to the larger 400/60-15.5.

Storage for the removed wrap or net isalways a frustration. The G2X2 comes stan-dard with a large capacity twine box fittedto the front of the unit.

The streamlined shape of the twine boxallows for sharp turns.

The lid is securely held closed with aheavy duty magnet which can also be usedto hold a knife in a recess under the lid.

Giltrap have also drawn on feedbackfrom users of three point linkage feeders todevelop the G2 which has proven to be avery reliable and easy to operate feeder.

Being able to load and operate the G2linkage feeder from either end saves timethrough less tractor movements. The feedout bed incorporates many of the samefeatures as the trailed feeder.

Keeping weight close to the back of thetractor is achieved by having the lower link-age points mounted inside the full widthhead stock, meaning smaller tractors canhandle this machine with ease.

The headstock has bolt-in high tensiletynes for loading bales and carrying thefeed out bed.

Once coupled up, the two componentsare securely held together with a lockingpin, easily released with a rope pull. Hightensile cast steel drive couplings provide along lasting, positive drive to the feed outchains.

Like the trailed G2X2 feeder the linkageG2 incorporates many of the same featuresproviding the operator a feeder that can reliably and efficiently feed out their balesfor many years.

The G2X2 trailed feeder and the G2 link-age feeder provide many benefits to purchasers and Giltrap recommends any-

body considering a new bale feeder tospeak with their local Giltrap distributor.

Enduro Tags on display

Enduro Tags will have these unique, high retention, highly visible livestock tags on display at Farm World.

Enduro Tags will have on display, and are taking pur-chase orders, for their unique high retention and highlyvisible livestock tags and their NLIS cattle electronic tagsand NLIS sheep tags.

The Enduro NLIS cattle tag has extremely high retention witha 100 per cent retention record on their NLIS trial farms to dateincluding their dairy and two southern beef properties.

While conventional cattle tags relied on one central anchorpoint with a flange on the back of the ear, this new generationdesign ensures the surface area at the back of the ear is less like-ly to snag with fences and scrub and is better anchored in placewith the two prongs and locks.

Dr Steinfort said dairy, beef and sheep producers are wel-come to visit their site no C7 at Farm World and sample thetechnology.

Samples are available so dairy farmers can check out theirhigh electronic read performance - so they can expect excellentdairy reads and drafting gate functionality.

Their Enduro cattle RFID tags are NLIS registered andalthough not subsidised as yet by the Victorian Goverment,they are cost effective when applied to your replacement heifers- as they are designed for long term retention and electronicfunctionality.

“They can also see our range of management tags and dairyand beef high tags, also being highly visible with excellent fieldretention.

“Producers are looking for a tag they can apply to a calf’s earat marking and be confident in the knowledge it will still bethere when the animal is eventually sold,” he said.

Enduro Tags are solely Australian owned and manufactured.Contact Enduro Tags (03) 9735 2844.

The HustlerChainless X5000

bale feederThe Hustler tradition of finding new ways to make every-

day farming tasks easier continues with the release of the allnew X5000 chainless bale feeder.

Following three years’ development and 20 months’ fieldtesting on farms in Australia, New Zealand and America theX5000 is our response to the evolving demands of feedinganimals – brought about by climatic changes, variations inbale types, and the need to make feeding out easier for oper-ators of all skill levels.

By testing the Chainless X5000 on more than 19 farmsglobally has enabled the new design to feed out any bale,round or square - hay, balage and straw of all types includ-ing vetch, lucerne, oats, alfalfa, sorghum and loose short cutsilage bales that are problematic for other types of bale feed-er.

The addition of a new Axial Rotor with centralising pad-dles keeps the bale positioned in the centre of the feedingchamber to minimise wastage and provide better grip on softbales.

The feeding chamber itself is now wider to prevent balerub and wastage, and deeper – removing the need for con-tinuous adjustment of the platform makes it simple and easyfor any operator to feed out like a pro. The Easy CleanHypaflo Wiper Panel minimises blockages and ensures thathay drops outside the wheel tracks to avoid being flattenedinto the mud. A quick release latch releases the wiper panelfor easy cleaning.

A stronger, more powerful drive system, located at the rearof the feeder, is out of the way of tractor tyres during sharpturns and allows the Chainless X5000 to handle bigger,heavier bales. The single hydraulic ram of Hustler’s TotalControl 2 loading system makes loading faster and preventsbales falling on the operator during unwrapping.

A bigger tyne frame provides extra support for soft orsquare bales. Another industry first from Hustler, theChainless X5000 is the first balefeeder to feature a Loadcam– an optional rear view camera that makes lining up the sec-ond bale more precise. Setting the tines at the correct load-ing height has been simplified with our new easy-to-readand conveniently positioned Load Dial.

Farmers have their say on the Chainless X5000… BEEF RANCH, MISSOURI, USA - “Our ranch/feed yard

is located in central Missouri. As our program is a free range program we feed a lot of

hay. The CHX5000 has performed well in our operation, asa bale unloader in our bunker silo where we load the haydirectly into our feed trucks as well as unloading big balesdirectly into fence line bunks.

It has replaced a large industrial tub grinder which wasexpensive to operate and maintain. We are very pleased withthis equipment. Thanks again”

DAIRY FARMER, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA - “It’s a lotsmoother with how it rotates the bale. I’ve tested it on hills,going up hills and down hills, whereas my old machine usedto, more so coming uphill it wanted to throw the bale out ofthe back of the machine, out of the cradle but the X5000keeps it in there quite nice now. No real amount of silagehanging off the side and getting jammed. Quite impressed.”

DAIRY FARMER, COBDEN, VICTORIA - “The feed out-side of it is 100% better the way you’ve changed it”

For 2015 Hustler is offering 2 years of extra warranty free,providing a full 4 year warranty on all products and they’rebacked by Hustler’s global network of accredited dealers.

and basic design of the1930 spinner spreader wasso good that it was useduntil replaced in 1970 bythe Kurrajong series.

All technical informationon spreaders from 1926 isintact.

From remaining records

we know that at least30,000 spreaders havebeen manufactured since1945.

Spare parts sales indi-cate that a very large por-tion of these and the1935/45 spreaders are stillin use today.

The facts are the majori-ty of replacement partsand instruction manualsare available for nearly allCrump Spreaders regard-less of their age.

They can even supply acopy of the original 1926drop spreader manualand service that machinewith parts from later mod-els.

Both the Acacia (3 pointlinkage) and Kurrajong(trailing) series have beenimproved in recent yearsand the Crump Australiabusiness is now part ofthe Albury PrecisionEngineering Group.

Farmers using thePendulum TM or LarsenTM Stall Gates will knowthat Vacuum OperatedRams have there limitations,especially during winterwhere sticking Ramsbecome a frustrating andunprofitable way to run adairy.

Vacuum Ram cylinders arerestricted in capacity by themilking machine vacuumlevel. As cows grow in sizeduring pregnancy or simplyas genetics improve, the effi-ciency of the cylinders isreduced. The system simplydoes not have the power tolift the gate from betweencows.

By simply removing theVacuum Ram and installinga Compressed Air Ram, themilking machine will experi-ence numerous advantages.

Neil Cranston (Nar NarGoon) has a 15 unit swing-over dairy and is one of themany farmers Australia widewho has already changedout his Vacuum Rams andreplaced them with NEWDaviesway, Tech-Line E-X1Compressed Air Rams.

Neil said the CompressedAir Rams are very reliable,easy to operate and requirevery little maintenance, “I’vehad these Larsen stalls since1996 and the upgrade isgreat improvement, espe-cially in regards to continu-ous cow flow through thedairy”

The compressed air solu-tion allows the milkingmachine vacuum to be usedfor what it is meant, cleanand efficient milking.

Daviesway can also installcompressed air solutions forEntry and Exit gates toimprove efficiencies.

Daviesway recently com-pleted a successful brandnew dairy for Jonathan andKate McAlister at (Bruarong- North East Victoria)).

Rodent Terminator kills rats and mice efficiently

Combating the ongoing invasion of your home by rats andmice has always been a problem. Until now! The newElectronic Taipan Rodent Terminator is the latest weapon inthe war against rats and mice.

After spending what seems a lifetime battling these invasivepests with conventional methods such as snap traps and poi-sons, Greg & Sharyn Nankervis of Rat Zapper Victoriaembarked on a different approach a few years back.

“Wooden snap traps were being replaced by plastic oneswhich seemed to just disappear because they were too light.”Greg said.

“Poisons of different varieties were either not touched orcontinually being eaten, putting a toll on the hip pocket.Then there was the smell! There is nothing more unforget-table than the acrid odour of decomposing rodents in yourwall cavities.

The use of poison also started to weigh heavily on ourminds when we considered the ongoing cost, and the threatto our family pets and the native wildlife through secondarypoisoning.” he added.

There had to be a better and more environmentally friend-ly way, and there was! Electronic rat and mouse zappersbecame their one and only weapon.

After years of trying different brands available, listening tofeedback from customers, friends and others, they believethey have helped design the ultimate zapper available.

The Rodent Terminator is Australian designed and utilisesadvanced technology to deliver a quick and deadly electricshock to rats and mice.

Simply baited with a few pieces of ordinary dry pet food, itis environmentally friendly and mess free.

The Rodent Terminator is powered by four “D” cell alkalinebatteries making it versatile and economical. Being batteryoperated, the Rodent Terminator can be used anywhere,indoors, outdoors, in the ceiling, under the house, anywhereyou have a rodent problem.

It is extremely easy to use, safe around pets and there is noneed to touch the dead rat or mouse.

The LED indicators let you know exactly what is going on;battery check, kill indication or whether the unit needs to becleaned.

Unlike any other zapper available, the Rodent Terminator isweather proof so it can be used outdoors in vegetable gar-dens, orchards, back yards, etc. with no fear of a shower ofrain damaging it. It is also the only zapper that comes apartfor easy cleaning. The Rodent Terminator comes completelyin half giving full length access to the floor section for clean-ing, emptying and rebaiting.

Greg explained, “Understanding rats and mice and theirhabits is important in any trapping attempts. Rats and micehave scent laden pathways and they stick to them. Placingyour Rodent Terminator on one of these pathways or otherarea of activity always gives the best and quickest results.

Location, location, location! Look for evidence of pathways,droppings, greasy stains, etc. and locate your zapper accord-ingly.”

Farm World 2015

Keep an eye on your farm long into the future

Taking care of your eyes is easy.

• Wear a hat and sunglasses when outside.

• Wear eye protection when using tools and equipment.

• Maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly.

• Keep good control of your diabetes.

• Stop smoking.

• Follow the advice of your eye health professional.

And be aware, many eye conditions often develop slowly without obvious symptoms at first.

So don’t wait for symptoms, have regular eye tests, they can help detect problems early and prevent vision loss.

For more information on eye health and vision care, speak to an optometrist, ophthalmologist or your GP.

Visit our stand (EC31) at Farm World in the Health and Wellbeing area.

Farmers at higher risk of eye disease

Australian farmers are getting older, work-ing longer hours and often beyond retire-ment age exposing them to increased risksof eye diseases and other health conditions.

Many eye diseases have no symptoms intheir early stages.

Left undetected or untreated eye diseasesoften lead to vision loss.

The good news is that 75% of vision loss inAustralia is preventable or treatable if it’sdetected early.

Vision Initiative Manager Dee Tuminosaid,

“Having regular eye tests is critical for theearly detection of eye disease.

This is particularly important for peopleaged over 40, those with diabetes, peoplewith a family history of eye disease, smokers,and Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander peo-ple.”

Unfortunately, 1 in 3 regional Victoriansare failing to have regular eye examinations*,placing their sight at increased risk.

“Farmers should be doing everything theycan to protect their sight.

Wearing protective eye wear when doingactivities such as welding, wearing a hat andsunglasses that meet the Australian stan-dards when outdoors, stopping smoking,maintaining a healthy lifestyle and seeing anoptometrist on a regular basis for an eye testcan help protect a farmer’s sight and theirlivelihood well into the future.” Ms Tuminosaid.

Australian made automatic gate openers

Sun-Power XP Series automatic swing gate operators have been made in Australia for the past24 years.

Two years ago Sun-Power wrote “Nowmore than ever Australian Made reallymeans something to all of us.

The manufacturing industry is experienc-ing the loss of so many jobs at Ford, Holden,Toyota, Qantas and a close shave with SPCArdmona, how many more can we afford tolose?”

They are pleased to say that since then, thesale of their already popular XP Series AutoGate Operators (Australian Made) havegreatly increased. Over 95 percent of peopleseeking to purchase an auto gate operatorinsist they will buy only Australian made.

Buying an auto gate opener is similar inmany ways to buying a car, it is important tocompare the various models in reasonabledetail to make an informed decision.

Some of the factors buyers consider are:Australian made, performance and reliabili-

ty, standard features, detailed manual, repu-tation of supplier, price, spare parts avail-ability, size of solar panel and battery, quali-ty of equipment, technical support, optionsavailable, visitor access options.

Message from Leader ofThe Nationals and

Shadow AgricultureMinister Peter Walsh

Leader of the Nationals Peter Walsh welcomes visitors toFarm World.

Nobody understands the importance of agriculture betterthan The Nationals.

In Gippsland they have strong Nationals representation atboth State and Federal levels with your local membersFederal Member for Gippsland, Darren Chester, Senator forVictoria, Bridget McKenzie, Member for Morwell, RussellNorthe and Member for Gippsland East, Tim Bull.

Annual events like Farm World are really important tobring the industry together and showcase the latest machin-ery and innovative practices.

Regions like Gippsland rely on thriving agricultural indus-tries to support their local economy and way of life.

That’s why The Nationals are keenly listening to our localcommunities and ensuring their voice is heard in the StateParliament.

An example of this most recently is coal seam gas. Afterhearing the concerns of their local farmers and communi-ties, The Nationals have taken the position that landholdersdeserve the right to say no to any CSG extraction on theirland.

The Nationals were part of the Coalition Governmentwhich introduced a moratorium on CSG and they supportthe continuation of that moratorium until it can be guaran-teed that an onshore gas industry will not adversely impactagricultural production or our water supplies.

But The Nationals want to make their position clear nowthat if an onshore coal seam gas industry does develop oneday in Victoria, farmers deserve the right to say no to extrac-tion on their property.

Come and visit The Nationals stand at Farm World to havea chat with your local representatives. They are keen to havea chat and hear about the things that matter to you.

Member for Gippsland East Tim Bull said the Liberal-Nationals Coalition provided $16 million towards the firststage of the Macalister Irrigation District upgrade and madean election commitment of another $10 million, and hewould work to ensure this important project continued.

“Agriculture, especially dairy, underpins a number ofGippsland communities and the MID modernisation has astrong business case,” Mr Bull said.

Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester said he waspositive about the future for Gippsland farmers.

“In the past 12 months, we have seen some major achieve-ments in federal agricultural policy,” Mr Chester said.

“The biggest milestones have been the signing of FreeTrade Agreements with China, Japan and Korea, which willgenerate future job opportunities and encourage furtherinvestment in Gippsland’s premium agricultural products.”

Mr Chester encouraged further feedback on issues facingfarmers.

“While we have achieved these milestones, I don’t pretendthat everything is perfect for local farmers, so please contin-ue providing your feedback on important issues and I willkeep advocating on your behalf,” Mr Chester said.

New boarders warmly welcomed

Elliott Knight, 15, from Tonimbuk has received a comprehen-sive boarding orientation program at Melbourne GrammarSchool which has helped him settle into life in Melbourne.

Becoming a boarder is notjust about starting a newschool - it’s also about mak-ing new friends, settling intoa new daily rhythm and get-ting used to life in theboarding house.

For boarders atMelbourne GrammarSchool, there’s the addedadventure of learning aboutlife in the city.

Fortunately for Tonimbuklocal Elliott Knight, 15, acomprehensive boardingorientation program hashelped him settle into lifein Melbourne. “I neverthought I’d board – I hadalways imagined it would betoo scary, moving awayfrom home and coming upto the big city. But now I’vebeen here for about sixweeks and I’m loving everypart of it.”

In preparation for hismove, Elliott visitedMelbourne GrammarSchool a number of timeslast year. “It was great to seethe school in action and tomeet some of the staff. Ihad an opportunity to stayover in the boarding housefor an evening too. I reallyenjoyed it. It was amazingseeing the school and thefacilities and getting to meetthe other students.”

Under the guidance of MrMichael Shaw, Director ofBoarding, and the Heads ofHouse, new students takepart in a series of orienta-tion activities, including anAmazing Race-style trekaround the city.

“We had to find majorlandmarks around the city,the major attractions we’dneed to know to live inMelbourne. We also spentsome time getting to knowthe campus, the differentclassrooms and the build-ings,” Elliott says.

Now halfway through hisfirst term at the school,Elliott reports that he is

enjoying Year 10 and mak-ing the most of every oppor-tunity.

Boys from around Victoria,interstate and overseas havebeen boarding atMelbourne GrammarSchool for more than 150years.

Boarders at the schoolmake themselves at home inthree magnificent Victorianterrace houses opposite theRoyal Botanic Gardens,adjacent to the SeniorSchool campus.

The school’s inner-citylocation means boys are justa short tram ride from theCBD, with easy access toMelbourne’s many sportsand cultural venues.

This term, Elliott is study-ing Film as Text for English,Military History, Maths,Science, Art, and PersonalDevelopment. “It’s a goodmix for my first semester,”he says. In his spare time,he’s playing touch rugby forthe school and weighing upoptions for the winter sea-son. “I haven’t decided yet –I’ll probably play football orbasketball,” he says.

Elliott is also excited to beplaying drums for SchoolHouse as an accompani-

ment for the House Singingcompetition in March.

Though it’s still early days,Elliott has started thinkingabout what lies beyondschool.

He and his family choseMelbourne GrammarSchool for the breadth ofopportunities available atthe school.

“I don’t know yet what Iwant to do when I finishschool. It’s one of the rea-sons I came to MelbourneGrammar – there are plentyof directions you can takeand there’s advice availableto help you plan yourfuture,” Elliott explains.

Elliott wasn’t sure what toexpect when he started as aboarder – but the schoolhas certainly challenged hisperceptions.

“It’s not like the movieswhere boarding is a scaryexperience and they feedyou bad food. In fact, thefood’s been delicious, andit’s basically a big family, allliving as one. It’s been agreat experience so far.”

Farm World 2015

Agriculture graduates arein high demand andAustralia is not producingenough agriculture andagribusiness graduates totake up the range of profes-sional careers that are onoffer.

Agriculture and agribusi-ness graduates walk out ofcollege or university andinto employment, such isthe thirst for their skills andknowledge.

Marcus Oldham atGeelong recently conduct-ed a closer than usualanalysis of where graduatesin agriculture and agribusi-ness have found employ-ment.

While a large numberhead into production agri-culture, another significantgroup has gone into bank-ing, finance and accountingand a further portion doingwell in commodity trading.Other graduates are in man-agement, marketing, con-

sulting or using their entre-preneurial skills and devel-oping their own business.

The common threadamong these employmentdestinations is they are allfocussed on supportingAustralia’s agriculturalindustries, either at the pro-duction end or the businessend.

Another common threadis that jobs are plentiful andgraduates are having noproblem finding them.

There are a few drivershere. First, fewer universitiesoffer agriculture andagribusiness courses thandid a decade ago, resultingin fewer graduates.

Second, the number ofjobs in agriculture isincreasing as the nationrecovers from the millenni-um drought, and food secu-rity and food quality con-cerns across the worldincrease demand forAustralian-produced food.

The demand for agricul-ture and agribusiness gradu-ates is strong and there aresigns the supply may becommencing recovery.

Dr Peter Smith, principalresearch associate atMarcus Oldham’s Centrefor the Study of RuralAustralia, has recentlyreturned from the US wherehe noted increasing interestin careers in agriculture.Marcus Oldham is alsonoticing this trend.

It is in the interest of ouragricultural industry, andour nation, to see more ter-tiary enrolments and gradu-ates equipped for the abun-dance of agribusiness andagriculture career choices.

More importantly, it is alsoin the very strong interest ofindividual students to selecta course and career wherethey will find meaningfulemployment and make asatisfying contribution.Studying agriculture can

Farmers can take manyinitiatives to improve theirown farm productivity. Ithas been said that we needto farm smarter. To farmsmarter, we need to knowhow a property worksthrough its layout and infra-structure; its soil, crops andlivestock quality; financesand marketing. PeterHarrisson of Farm MappingServices believes that havinga farm map is an importantasset to help farm smarterand increase productivity.

Gippsland has much tooffer with a great locationclose to markets, perfect cli-mate and quality soils. Witharound $1.5 billion in2010/11 from milk prod-ucts, meat and vegetablesand recent growth in exportopportunities, theGippsland Food Plan focus-es, among other things, onpromoting growth, innova-tion and adapting tochange. Now is a great timeto have a comprehensive

map to underpin wholefarm planning.

Peter acknowledges theskills of the farmers heworks for.

“They can be handlinginformation about soils,water supply, biodiversity,pasture quality, grazingmanagement, new infra-structure and assets. All thisdata is used to address cur-rent and future goals. I ampleased to be able to pro-vide maps to underlie farmmanagement and to assistin planning for major enter-prise changes. For many ofus, a map makes it easy tosee the big picture.”

Farmers know their prop-erty well. They know themost productive areas andwhat works in different sea-sons. However to farmsmarter, the knowledgeneeds to be shared andused for decision making.As Darryl commented priorto his farm’s conversion to arobotic dairy, “Thanks for

the maps. Only one prob-lem – I should have done it27 years ago.”

Maps include natural fea-tures such as watercoursesand vegetation, accessroads, and infrastructuresuch as lanes, paddocks,buildings, water systems andirrigation. A map givingaccurate pasture measure-ments has many advantagesincluding building paddockhistories for stock and croprotation, control of contrac-tor charges, and as a guideto stocking rates. Handy dayto day uses include describ-ing farm areas to visitorsand new employees, use asa daily planner, showingwhich paddocks are closedfor fodder, for the bankmanager to assist in finan-cial decisions, to fax con-tractors with requirementsor consultants with propos-als for consideration, toindicate water lines, to showswitches for electric fences,danger areas such as ditch-

Mapping - a vital piece in successful farm productivity

Quadra Fire slow combustion units were launched ontothe Australian market in 2011 and since then have set thebenchmark on efficiency for slow combustion units inAustralia.

With new clean air laws introduced by Standards Australiawhich came into effect at the end of 2014, most manufac-turers look to add more air to the burn cycle to bring downemissions and meet the new standard.

This however has a counteractive result on efficiency andtakes away the desired “overnight burn”.

Quadra Fire meets the new regulations by changing thetechnology in the way a fireplace burns. Four burning or“Quad Burning” ensures you get the most from the fuel anda clean burn.

Jetmaster units come with a 15 year plus warranty, auto-mated combustion control system, no catalytic converterand dual air control for unmatched performance.

Jetmaster has now introduced an even more efficientrange of slow combusion fireplaces - the Heatilator,Australia’s most efficient fireplace.

It comes with ultra low emissions, having an average effi-ciency rating of 83.5%.

This equates to approx 2 1/2 tonnes of wood saved p.a., asaving of between $540-$670 p.a.

It is available in 3 sizes, with the WINS18 insert being themost efficient wood insert on the market.

A Quadra-Fire or Heatilator is the smart choice for yournext fireplace. Quadra-Fire and Heatilator have the per-formance and technology that sets them apart from the rest.

Come and see working models at site No.208 or visit us atquadrafire.com.au or heatilator.com.au

The Heatilator WS18 is Australia’s most efficient fireplace. For more information speak to theJetmaster representatives on Site 208.
