Leading from the front

The old adage ‘you are what you eat’ has never been more relevant than when talking about beef cattle. In order to produce the finest and most highly prized cattle and top quality dairy herds, the highest quality silage with an exact nutritional profile must be fed. In order to deliver this to your customers, you have to harvest at exactly the right moment. You won’t get a second chance. With the FP grass pick-up you’ll get it right first time, every time.

Reel speed and pick-up speeds have been increased to ensure maximum feeding performance.

Advanced header levelling control

Advanced header height control means that no matter how uneven the terrain, uniform pick-up across the entire swath is guaranteed. The Autofloat™ system compatible with New Holland maize headers uses a combination of sensors that ensure the header follows uneven terrain, and automatically adjusts its position hydraulically to maintain uniform height to the prevent the header digging into the ground. Lateral free float technology uses two heavy-duty springs which are built into the crop attachment frame and are used in conjunction with pick-up headers to ensure unrivalled ground contour following.
