Almost 15,000 visitors keen to keep abreast of the latest forage and manure developments packed the aisles and demonstration plots at Grassland & Muck 2011. This two day event is held every three years in central England and is designed to give manufacturers, such as ourselves, the chance to showcase our products in a working environment.
There was, however, one thing in short supply this year – and that was grass! After 5 weeks without rain the Pöttinger UK working plot was at best only 30cm high, proving no real challenge for the machines we were to demonstrate.
This year also heralded the largest ever line-up of Pöttinger machines which saw us working across three different plots with our partners New Holland, Merlo and our own.
The machinery line up was as follows:
- NovaCat 265 HED Mower Conditioner
- NovaCat 402 Mower NEW
- NovaCat 307 TED Trailed Mower Conditioner
- NovaCat 301 Alpha Motion ED Front Mounted Mower Conditioner NEW
- NovaCat V10 ED Rear Combination Mounted Mower Conditioner
- Hit 800 NZ Tedder
- EuroTop 620N Mounted Twin Rotor Rake
- Top 852C S-Line Trailed Twin Rotor Rake NEW
- Top 1252C S-Line Rake Trailed Four Rotor Rake
- Mex 6 Trailed Forage Harvester
- Faro 3500L Forage Wagon
- Jumbo 6010L c/w “autocut” Forage Wagon
Despite the lack of grass we managed to draw large crowds every time we performed a working demonstration with many visitors keen to see the latest developments from Pöttinger. There was particular interest in the world first “Autocut” on-board knife sharpening system fitted to the Jumbo forage wagon.
A practical sharpening demo was carried out after each and every harvesting demonstration which prompted many questions and enquiries about this unique system.
We had two very busy days talking with existing and potential customers and look forward to welcoming you back to Stoneleigh in 2014.
