The machinery cooperative Schindlbeck&Mayer, located in the municipality of Geisenhausen, Lower Bavaria, recently invested in a new SIP AIR HD 900 T pick-up rake.
Mr. Schindlbeck operates a dairy farm and was previously working with a 4-rotor central rake. AndMr. Mayer manages a bull farm with sow breeding (breeding of pigs) and used to work with a single-rotor rake.
Both farmers decided to invest in the pick-up rake technology due to new environmental regulations in Germany, requiring strip-wise slurry application from January 1, 2025. With this regulation in place, reducing forage contamination becomes crucial, and the pick-up rake AIR HD 900 T provides a significant advantage in maintaining clean, high-quality forage.
Before their purchase, Schindlbeck and Mayer carefully researched SIP’s pick-up rake technology and tested another brand of pick-up rake. However, the SIP AIR HD 900 T convinced them with its outstanding benefits:
- Excellent price-performance ratio
- 3-year warranty for added reliability
- Significant time savings in the forage harvesting process (proven in two field tests)
- Unmatched flexibility (central and side swath formation, adjustable settings)
- Superior maneuverability, even on smaller or irregular fields
Additionally, both farmers plan to use the machine for shared contracting services, aiming for an annual usage of approximately 500 hectares.
