THE ROYAL WELSH SHOW REVIEW / ZETOR

Z

etor and its importer, Zetor UK Limited, have been part of the Royal Welsh Show for many years now and it’s an important event for the brand.

But why does Zetor love Wales? Many people say it’s because Zetor tractors are good on hills.

There’s certainly no doubt about that; hill farmers throughout the UK praise their Zetors for stability and a great torque reserve.

Zetor loves to be close to its customers.

Zetor’s stand at Builth Wells was slightly different this year. After the very successful launch, and excellent sales, for the new Zetor Major and a vast increase in sales of

the Zetor Proxima range, the factory in the Czech Republic had decided that the time had come to show the people of Wales the brand’s most powerful tractor to date.

Parked humbly in the middle of the stand was the brand new Zetor Forterra HD 150. The very same unit has been displayed in June at the Royal Highland Show and, so far, Zetor’s UK marketing team reports, “all the interest in the new model has been very promising”.

While you may have expected Zetor to go for a high-profile launch for this new tractor, with all the bells ringing, instead the manufacturer is taking its time and the new Forterra

HD 150 has been slowly blended in to the Zetor product portfolio here in the UK. It’s a sort of a sleeping beauty strategy, if you like, or maybe sleeping beast would be more appropriate!

Zetor is full of news this year. Hiring new sales staff and appointing new dealers has shown confide ce in the UK market and the brand’s future. And Wales is a big part of these plans.

The Royal Welsh Show has been always a good place to meet old customers, but it’s an even better place for talking to future ones too.

The Zetor Proxima Power

Tel: Vicky 07780 471481 | Email: vicky@agri-news.co.uk

120, fitted with a Zetor System front-end loader, on this year’s stand also drew a lot of attention.

Th s solid configur tion has become very popular on the Continent, and many UK farmers are attracted by its versatility. Suitable for mixed farms and well equipped for lighter arable tasks, the Zetor Proxima Power leads the way for the rest of the Zetor Proxima range.

Zetor loves Wales, there’s no doubt about that. But it was clear from this year’s Royal Welsh Show that Wales loves Zetor.

UK TOUR DATES UNVEILED FOR NEW HOLLAND COMBINES, TRACTORS AND BALERS

A

national showcase tour of combines, tractors and balers will let farmers get to grips with the latest New Holland harvest technology.

The demonstrations at venues in England and Scotland will let customers get a taste of the machines’ hi-tech capacity and appreciate the benefits they could bring to their farming operations.

During July, August and September, New Holland specialists will be on hand with local dealers at these special events to provide the latest information and answer questions.

On display during the demo tour will be the new CR10.90, the first combine to enter the class 10 segment in Europe and the most powerful CR ever, that delivers the highest capacity in the industry and truly outstanding performance.

The CR10.90 (Tier B) is equipped with the exceptionally efficient Cursor 16 engine which has been named Diesel Of The Year® 2014 by Diesel magazine. Developed by sister company FPT

Industrial, the new 16-litre, six-cylinder in-line engine received this prestigious accolade in recognition of its technological excellence.

The distinctively styled, CX5000 and CX6000 Elevation combines will also be on show, a range which stands out for its flexibility and versatility.

It offers a solution for all: from livestock farmers who want quality straw to contractors and cash crop farmers who can easily switch crops without compromising on performance and quality.

And it consistently delivers best-in-class performance in all conditions: on flat fields, gentle or steep slopes, and in a wide variety of crops.

Modern agriculture places ever-changing demands upon farmers, managers and contractors, but a key constant is the need to manage equipment in the field as efficiently as possible to optimise utilisation and reduce downtime. Customers visiting the demo locations will be able to see in action New Holland’s PLM® Connect system.

This is a state-of-the-art communication system that can facilitate the

4 | AGRINEWS | Issue 34 | August 2014 |

control and supervision of equipment from a centralised office, allowing machine operation to be monitored and managed without the need to spend time travelling between separate operations.

Finally, for those customers looking for gentle crop handling from their baler, the new ActiveSweep™ crop processing solution offers a further choice to enable tailored baling. The demo tour will also feature the capabilities of this purpose developed feature on the Roll Belt 150™ baler.

New Holland Marketing Manager, Nicolas Ferrara, said: “This is an incredibly exciting time for the brand. For our customers it’s the first time they’ll be able to see these stunning machines in action. It will showcase their power, efficiency and quality, as well as New Holland’s standard comfort and ease of use.

“These new models have answered the latest demands from farmers and businesses, ready in

time for the 2014 selling season. This is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate first-hand what these new models can achieve.”

CASE INTRODUCES NEW ENGINE TECHNOLOGY TO EXPANDED RANGE

C

ase IH introduces new engine technology in expanded Farmall C range Case IH has expanded and upgraded its Farmall C range to include six new four-cylinder models from 58hp to 107hp. Aimed at livestock and smaller mixed farms, they fit into the company’s range between existing threecylinder Farmall A models from 65hp to 82hp and the high-specification, four-cylinder Farmall U Pro tractors from 99hp to 114hp.

Designed to appeal to farms where their low overall height, just 2.5m, and tight 3.7m turning circle could be beneficial, the 58hp Farmall 55C, 64hp 65C and 74hp 75C models are joined by the 86hp Farmall 85C, 99hp 95C and 107hp 105C. All feature new 3.4-litre,

four-cylinder, commonrail diesel engines which are both turbocharged and intercooled. These are slightly more powerful as well as being more economical than the 3.2 litre power units used in the current Farmall models, the 55hp 55C, 64hp 65C and 75hp 75C, which they will replace.

Case IH highlights the fact that the new engines meet the new Stage 111B emission standards which come into force in 2015 without the use of a conventional Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), which requires exhaust gases to reach 240ÂşC to purge the filter of particulates, a temperature which may not be achieved where tractors are used only for short periods or on light applications.

Manufactured by FPT Industrial, a leading global

supplier of engines, axles and transmissions for the industrial sector, the new power units are equipped with Cooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (CEGR) technology which lowers the temperature of the exhaust gases, then blends them with fresh air and returns the mixture to the cylinder to maximise combustion efficiency. The engines also feature new Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and maintenancefree Particulate Matter Catalyst (PMC) technology which automatically burns off particulates in the exhaust gases, thereby ensuring that the system remains clean and operates at peak efficiency.

As standard, Farmall 55C,

Equipped with flat-floor cabs which incorporate a window in the front roof section to enhance visibility when working with a frontend loader, the six new Farmall C models provide a valuable addition to the comprehensive Case IH range.

James Green Farm Machinery Brookfields Farm Haye Lane Mappleborough Green Nr Studley B80 7BU 01527 857857

65C and 75C tractors are fitted with a 12F x 12R 40kph transmission, with a 20F x 20R 40kph unit available as an option.

Larger Farmall 85C, 95C and 105C models use a 24F x 24R two-speed Power Shuttle system, but customers can specify a 40F x 40R 40kmh creeper transmission which offers travel speeds down to just 123m/hr at rated speed.

WORDS OF WISDOM FROM STEVE BIRCHALL

I

ndustry developments and pressure from the supply chain are turning the spotlight on more effici t cleaning units as a way to increase performance while reducing antibiotics use.

that can be done to reduce disease threats, the better.

There is a real scope to improve the effectiveness of cleaning of all types of poultry housing but the starting point is a change of mind set.

The packers and retailers are demanding less independance on the use of antibiotics to control disease so producers need to respond to this.

Too many producers regard cleaning as a “must do�, uninteresting and mundane chore, something that has to be done and the sooner it is done the better, however, nothing could be further from the truth. Cleaning should be seen as an integral part of a production system which can have a signifi ant impact on performance, costs and profit.

To control disease and maintain production, the industry has to explore and adopt alternative ways to reduce the pathogen risk to birds.

Better hygiene practices, based on more effici t cleaning of housing and equipment combined with strict biosecurity is an obvious starting point. It is entirely logical to get buildings as clean as possible before repopulating them to reduce the disease threat before the new birds arrive. New stock are under stress brought about by combination factors including transport, handling, vaccination and being exposed to new disease threats. The more

An effici t well planned and implemented cleaning procedure can reduce the disease threat to birds leading to better performance. It can also save time and reduce costs.

dirt unless soiling is removed, the pathogens will be protected from the disinfectant.

The cleaning phase is crucial but this is not a case of taking an ardent approach with a high pressure power washer.

While you can blast away some soiling, you will not remove the fats and proteins which make up much of the dirt on the walls and other surfaces.

In addition, the use of high pressure creates an aerosol effect which can actually spread the pathogens and make them worse.

To achieve an effective clean it is essential to apply a detergent and then

An effective routine comprises of two different stages - cleaning and disinfection. Cleaning is essential to remove the environment in which pathogens thrive and to expose them to the subsiquent disinfectant.

You can not disinfect

Effective cleaning will help prevent the economic loss associated with outbreaks and is considerably cheaper than the cost of treating an outbreak with medicines. Using chemical detergents ensures that soiling is removed before disinfection resulting in a reduction in bacterial levels prior to restocking, giving the new birds the best possible start.

Thorough cleaning based on a two stage routine could have a big impact on future profits and turn cleaning from a chore into a profit driver.

he KYMCO range of ATVs are extremely versatile - able to perform in a leisure or working environment both on and off road.

KYMCO Road Legal ATV's Classed as quadricycles, the KYMCO range of Road Legal quads can be registered as Private Light Goods Vehicles. They can also be registered as a Special Concessionary Vehicle if used in an agricultural/horticultural / forestry environment, where they will benefit from zero-rated Road Tax. Superb Build Quality and Engineering Excellence The MXU 300R is a fully automatic, lightweight, dual-purpose sports utility quad . Designed for farming, forestry and horticulture, the vehicle's automatic transmission with High & Low gear make it ideal for manouevering and towing across multi-terrain environments without causing undue wear and tear.

KIOTI MECHRON

This professional ATV has a powerful 4-stroke liquid cooled 270cc engine, automatic transmission, with reverse gear, high and low gear ratios, dualpurpose tyres, front and rear carriers and also features low maintenance shaft drive and front winch.

Road Legal with a host of features This ATV is a fully homologated Road Legal machine, compliant with Euro 2 guidelines, which means that compared to traditional off-road quads it provides increased fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, and lower noise levels.

The MXU 300R comes with a host of features fitted as standard, including adjustable suspension, front and rear disc brakes, electric and kick start, fully enclosed footboards, tow hitch, foot brake, front and rear carriers, digital display, and dual purpose tyres.

With the Mechron, ultimate 4x4 performance comes with the territory.

Thanks to 4-wheel, fully independent dual A-arm rear suspension and a wide stance, it delivers incredible stability and a super-smooth ride over the roughest terrain. And if you’re in a tight spot?

The tight turning circle and rear anti-sway bar guarantee you superb cornering. So come on and get acquainted with the Mechron. You’re in for quite a ride.

The heart of this machine is the durable, proven Kioti diesel power unit. This robust engine delivers 22HP

from its three cylinders, but the rated speed of 2,800 rpm is lower than most competitors – so you benefit from better fuel economy, longer engine life and a quieter ride.When it comes to the continuously variable transmission, the equally durable gearbox delivers Hi/Lo speeds and 4WD. The Mechron is a brilliantly balanced workhorse that benefits from excellent weight distribution with a full payload. And what a payload! The (56”) world’s widest cargo bed with 500kg capacity is unrivalled for this class of vehicle, so you can haul more on every trip.

And with the optional hydraulic tip kit, you can easily offload a heavy cargo without unnecessary hard work.

We’ve seen the quality, now it’s time to feel the comfort of the widest 3-seater on the market. The contoured bench guarantees a relaxing ride, with the pair of 2-point retractor seat belts and centre belt fitted as standard.

Working with you to bring you more style and better performance.

Rugged it may be, but the Amarok pick-up offers car-like driving and a refined interior with premium styling and functional design. The comfortable interior and convenience of an optional eight-speed automatic gearbox mean it’s as comfortable in town as it is off-road.

With its powerful 2.0-litre TDI engines and the dynamic all-terrain benefits of the intelligent 4MOTION® four-wheeldrive, it will take you anywhere you need to go. Offering maximum payload of 1,145kg and towing capacity of up to 3,200kg, it boasts the widest load area in its class so you can fit in a Euro pallet sideways.
