Great baling solutions with the experts at Trakland

WITH the unpredictable grass season, more people have made round bales and as a result Trakland has noticed an upsurge in interest in feeding machinery.

Trakland is pleased to offer the locally built, Blaney Agri Forager X10 bale unroller, designed to save any livestock farmer precious time and money, turning the daily chore of feeding bales into an easy one man and one tractor operation.

Trakland serves the machinery needs of local farmers in Kerry and are excited to offer the well-established and proven Forager X10.

The Forager X10 bale unroller, designed and manufactured in Co Antrim is the result of nine years’ intensive product development. Blaney have a long running history of making these machines.

The Forager X10 is now a well proven, life-changing piece of equipment and for many customers has become the most prized tool they own, being easy on the back and the pocket, saving hours of daily back breaking labour and reducing bale waste by around 20 per cent.

The new Forager X10 was re-engineered and launched in winter 2015 with a host of enhanced features, outperforming any other type of equipment on all bale types.

For many farms, a great aspect of the Forager X10 is that it is a one man and one tractor operation. Feeding a silage bale is as easy as 1-2-3, with the Forager X10 able to lift, load and feed - all from the comfort of your cab.

It offers a fast and effective solution for feeding out round bales to reduce the need for manual forking, to get the job done quickly and easily for better thriving animals, less wastage and improved profits.

Blaney enhanced the new model Forager X10 bale carriers, making them 25 per cent stronger. Drive components are capable of withstanding forces well in excess of 50,000 Newtons, and more powerful hydraulics give generous capabilities to work with the heaviest bales year after year.

Innovative triple feed out spikes, new bale chamber and unique side rollers are designed to deal with the most difficult bales. The new Forager X10 is more compact, ideal for getting into tight spaces and narrow passageways.

Its unique safety guards to protect livestock from injury are now 50 per cent stronger and more compact. The extra thick 50mm sprung tines are designed for road travel and developed to handle the heaviest bales.

The Forager X10 allows you to feed the optimum amount of fresh silage to livestock every day from the comfort of your tractor seat without the need for back-breaking manual forking, among many other great features.
