Efficiency and safety for Austria's largest agricultural business

Due to the large dimensions of their farm in Pfaffing, the Konrad family is the largest agricultural business in the country. The farm managers Johann Konrad and Johann Konrad jun. are therefore no strangers to enormous harvest pressure. Teamwork and powerful machines ensure optimum results. This is why the Konrad family also relies on MAMMUT silage feeding technology. Equipped with a silage spreader and silage roller, the silage trailer can provide relief for fast chopping chains. Long-lasting and particularly safe operation is very important to the farm managers. Johann and Johann Jun. are also impressed by the further development of the distribution and rolling technology. Where previously time was lost and the work was particularly strenuous, it is now possible to work very safely and efficiently.

In the past, we still had to distribute the feed we brought in with a fork using laborious manual labour. When we got the MAMMUT silage spreader, it was a great achievement for all of us. Now the feed is distributed quickly and optimally in the silage bin without much effort. The many years of use of our silage spreader also demonstrate the high stability of the equipment. At the same time, we recognised the potential for further development in compaction work. By loading with weights alone, the roller vehicle left an uncompacted area in the centre. By investing in the MAMMUT silage roller, we were able to optimally distribute the load over a larger area. This is a huge step forward for our business. This combination of silage spreader and silage roller ensures efficiency and guarantees the best feed quality.
