New Holland Rochester – Proud Optimist Supporter

New Holland Rochester has been a proud supporter of the local Optimist Club by supporting their local community projects such as the pumpkin project.

The Rochester Optimist Club grows pumpkins to sell in order to raise money to support the club’s mission, “Friendship of Youth.” Jim, Jesse, and Matt Straeter, owners of the New Holland Rochester business and Optimist Club members themselves, dedicate their time and resources to help make sure the pumpkin harvest is successful. This year, the club had sales in excess of $30,000 (another record year!)

The Straeter’s are thankful for having such a great group of members in the Rochester Optimist Club, access to a field to harvest the pumpkins (generously donated by Dick Belcher this year), the equipment to make the harvest go as smoothly as possible, and to be in such a great community of people who support our project and mission. Thanks again to everyone who made the Optimist Club’s pumpkin project a successful year!

12 Reasons to Buy a New Holland Box Spreader

New Holland box spreaders are the best-selling spreaders in the industry – and for good reason. Known as “Strong Boxes,” New Holland box spreaders are engineered to perform and built to last. They have the toughest floors and sides of any spreader available. And they’re made of special steels that are more corrosion-resistant and stronger than ordinary steels.

12 Reasons to buy a New Holland box spreader:

  1. Extra steel frame members in the spreader’s undercarriage provide added box strength.
  2. Heavy-duty axles with high-strength steel plates and spindles reduce stress on the frame. Standard on all models, these axles are a separate component from the box for easy servicing.
  3. A-frame hitch made of high-strength, lightweight steel extends far back under the bed. This directs pulling forces to the axles and carries the load instead of pulling it.
  4. Sturdy, formed steel frame member protects the front of the floor.
  5. Maximum-strength, easy-cleaning side sheets are designed without ribs.
  6. Optional slurry sides – a New Holland exclusive – increases capacity by about 25% and reduce splash-over.
  7. Sides and endgate made of special steels are four times more corrosion-resistant and twice as strong as ordinary steels.
  8. Unique “floating floor” made of high-density polyethylene tongue-and-groove planks expands and contracts without putting stress on the frame or sides. It won’t chip, crack, peel, or splinter – plus it’s acid and mold-resistant and won’t rot or warp.
  9. Choice of heavy-duty T-rod or pintle-type apron chains to match your spreading conditions.
  10. Rotary quadrant control lets operator set apron speed from the tractor. Choose from Neutral, Slow, Unloading, Fast Unloading, or Clean-Out positions. An optional hydraulic drive on models 185 & 195 provides more variable spreading rates.
  11. Rugged, heavy-duty jack swings out of the way for transport. It’s mounted inside the hitch channel for added protection.
  12. EVERY NEW HOLLAND ‘STRONG BOX’ COMES WITH A 12-YEAR BONDED PROTECTION. Here’s something you won’t find with competitive models – a no-nonsense, no hassle guarantee on the sides and floors. It’s standard on every New Holland box spreader. This special Bonded Protection plan guarantees the floors and sides of all New Holland box spreaders for 12 years. If the floor or sides of your New Holland box spreader fail within 12 years of original dealer purchase, new parts will be provided – FREE. No one else offers this type of protection.

Call or visit us at any of our locations today for more information on these industry-leading spreaders!

New Holland Cornrower Advances Corn Stover Research Iowa St. University

On Oct. 19th, 2016 at Iowa St. University, the New Holland Cornrower was used to harvest corn on university property. The Cornrower will be used to evaluate stover removal as part of Iowa State’s ongoing efforts in this area of stover collection.

Ongoing studies involving the Cornrower at Michigan State and the University of Nebraska, as well as Iowa State, continue to build a deep database supporting the benefits of stover harvest and show that the Cornrower is the most efficient and least costly way to harvest stover.

The video below shows the Cornrower performing as expected at ISU. We would like to thank the university for its interest and research covering the Cornrower as part of its overall study on stover.

New Holland CR9.90 Elevation vs. John Deere S690 PAMI Results

New Holland commissioned the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute (PAMI) to conduct independent combine productivity comparison tests on Model Year 2015 New Holland CR9.90 Elevation and John Deere S690 combines.

PAMI has 40 years of experience testing harvesting equipment in various locations worldwide with a specialty in Western Canadian crops and conditions. The combines were tested in September 2015 in wheat and canola in Saskatchewan. Testing focused on harvesting productivity and fuel consumption efficiency.

new-holland-pami-graph

Summary of Results:

  • New Holland has a 4% better harvesting productivity in wheat and up to 10% in canola.
  • The CR Elevation combine harvested 9% more grain per gallon of fuel and DEF than Deere S690.
  • There is an incredible difference of 13% gallons of fuel per acre in wheat and a 9% difference in the canola. On a 5,000-acre farm with 2,500 acres of wheat and 2,500 acres of canola, this would translate to a savings of up to $18,000 CAD per year (or approximately $13,000 USD) just by using the New Holland combine — a savings of $3.60 per acre!
