Don’t be Fooled by Zinc Paint

Galvanised steel lasts at least 5x longer than zinc paint as we’ll explain below. If you’re a farmer who wants to make smart choices, which if you’re reading this, we assume you are – GO GALVANISED. It really is the feature you can’t afford not to have – here’s why… 1. It’s More cost effective […]
Slurry Tankers: How to Avoid Vacuum Pump Overheating

When you’re running a slurry tanker vacuum pump overheating can cause serious damage and lead to big repair bills. Good stirring, the correct suction pipe size, and regular checks help keep your pump working at optimal levels. An overheated pump can halt productivity and lead to significant expense, so read on to follow our tips […]
A Cost Effective Alternative to Pumping Systems

It is often thought that slurry tankers are more expensive than pumps, but this is not normally so. With any pumping system there is also a reticulation system required. Slurry tankers enable you to apply effluent to the whole farm, so to make a full compression you would need to allow for at least 2,000 […]
Slurry Tankers – Low Application of Effluent

Traditional Splash Plate Using a splash plate, normal application depths are 3-5mm. Application rate needs to match the soil infiltration rate to avoid ponding and run-off. This is easily achievable even with heavy soils thanks to the revolutionary Nevada RainWave™ – a new system of achieving even more control, resulting in low application, and even […]
Slurry Tankers: The Safe Option for Health, Safety and Compliance

Nevada slurry tankers have large hydraulic brakes on all wheels for added security; lights for highway use; durable axle suspension – which prevents jolts and impacts travelling through the tank; swivel toe hitch – reduces jarring over uneven terrain and added safety in case tanker tips sideways; hydraulic park stent – for quick and easy […]
Self Loading – Stop, Drop & Go Slurry Tankers

An 8in auto-fill system can be used to load the slurry tanker from the comfort and safety of the tractor cab. One hydraulic line operates several functions to activate the fast Nevada Ezi-load System. In a sequence of events the arm is lowered (Nevada auto-fill arms can be set to go to the left or […]
Fewer Cows, More Milk Solids

Contract milker Vincent Trabasas explains how spreading effluent across the whole farm is helping Todd Dairies grow more grass, reduce in-shed feed and make better use of its nutrients.
Spreading effluent has increased crop harvest by 20%

The decision to start spreading effluent across his whole farm has been a huge success for Jamie Harris.
How do you stay on good terms with your neighbour?

Don’t borrow a slurry tanker from your neighbour. You might not want to give it back.
Raining Nutrients with a SlurryTanker

Six hundred cows produce a lot of effluent, Tom Middlebrook thought he could put that to good use, with a slurry tanker to help him rain nutrients across the whole farm.
Before the slurry tanker, there was no effluent management.

Scott Korpershoek transformed effluent from a daily headache into a valuable resource with the help of a Nevada Slurry Tanker – boosting efficiency and productivity on his farm.
Working a Slurry Tanker on Rolling Hills

What’s the expression? “Make hay while the sun shines,” and that is exactly what Scott Connell is doing with his Nevada Tandem Axle Slurry Tanker.
