Hay Day Photos

Our Hay Day event was held on Tuesday and was a great success as Mother Nature brought us a nice sunny day. Approximately 45 customers came out to see demos of New Holland’s cutting edge hay equipment and learned how to use it themselves. We appreciate those who took time out of their busy schedules to attend, and a big thank you is deserved to Brian Bidwell for being gracious enough to let us use his farm for the demo!

NH T8 SmartTrax vs. JD 8335RT 2-Track System

The T8 SmartTrax tractor is fundamentally different from any two-track system. A recent trade in on a T8 Smarttrak unit at New Holland Rochester was used to demonstrate just how much different they really are and what that impact has on the operator.

One salesman, who was attempting to video the ride with his phone, drove the JD 8335RT over a block of wood. As you can see, the bounce from the tractor was severe and you can see that the track actually was airborne as it came off the piece of wood. The lack of a suspension cab (JD doesn’t offer one) didn’t help.

The T8 was driven over the same block, same speed and while the track ‘snaps’ over the piece of wood, the impact on the driver is nominal and the track doesn’t appear to come close to leaving the wood.

This video clearly demonstrates why the New Holland system provides better traction (much more even ground pressure) and a smoother ride. See us for a demo and experience the T8 SmartTrax for yourself.

Combine Clinic 2015 Summary

Combine Clinics held at New Holland Rochester, Rodkey New Holland and New Holland Tri-County the week of Aug. 17th provided over 100 New Holland combine owners who attended information to make the 2015 harvest more profitable. Attendees included folks from New Holland Centerville, New Holland Logansport and New Holland Greentown.

The difficult conditions that the record-setting rains have cause in 2015 were addressed and owners were told what to do about varying moistures, yields and grain conditions. Grain quality matters were stressed. While the twin-rotor combines from New Holland have earned a reputation for providing better quality grain – and we expect that to be amplified this year – proper combine settings are still required to get the best performance owners were told.

A Purdue study on the value of higher grain quality was used to show attendees how a mere 15% improvement in grain quality is worth about $26.00 per acre in 200 bu/acre corn at $3.50/bushel. Attendees were shown how to do an iodine test to check grain quality. “Getting the best from the best” was the theme of the clinics that were provided courtesy of the New Holland Rochester group of dealership.

We appreciate the great turnout at all 3 events, and were glad to hear the positive feedback from attendees on how the information provided at the clinic will be helpful for them during the upcoming harvest.

NH T8 CVT vs. JD 8370R IVT

The Nebraska tests are now coming out on Tier IVb tractors with CVT transmissions.   We reviewed  the Nebraska test 2102 for a JD 8370R with an IVT transmission, DEF and CEGR engine using two turbochargers to stuff enough heated air in the engine to achieve a 16:1 compression ratio is and compared it with the NH T8.420 with CVT:

JD 8370 with IVT Neb Test | NH T8.420 with CVT Neb Test

Notice that while the horsepower at rated RPM is identical (351) the NH uses less fuel (18.44 for NH vs. 18.93 for JD), the torque rise is higher (50.7% for NH vs. 43.6% for Deere or a 16.2% advantage to NH) and the while the report says that Deere claims regeneration occurs only once every 50 hours, the tractor did regenerate in the 32 hour test period.

This test is just one of the many reasons why we believe we have the best high horsepower tractor on the market. We would enjoy speaking with anyone interested in these results, and give a demo of our tractor to get the real feel of the superiority of the product.
