Brian and Ross Williams in South Taranaki

When consent was up, the father and son team turned to Nevada for an effluent system that would help them run their dairy farm with more efficiency.

Instead of opting for a higher expense and more complex installation, Brian and Ross called Nevada to find the right system for the job. They opted to utilise their 112-horsepower tractor to pull a Nevada 12,800L Tandem Slurry Tanker that could manage two to three loads a day or a full day once a fortnight.

Utilising a Nevada slurry tanker system helped them cut costs and share the responsibility of spreading effluent evenly to all paddocks. Brian noted that, “We chose Nevada cause they are local and I like supporting local businesses. I’ve certainly read enough about the equipment and seen enough of their tankers throughout the country to know that they’re good.”

They found a slurry tanker was easy to operate and could manage spreading effluent across 90% of the paddocks with a good natural fertiliser that comes directly from the cows on their farm. Instead of applying effluent in the same place every time, a Nevada tanker system helps them reach poor paddocks and spread effluent evenly.

With no challenges setting up the system, they have owned a Nevada 12,800L Tandem Slurry Tanker and a Nevada TurboStir 6000 PTO Pond Stirrer for nine months. They enjoy the assurance of Nevada’s team only being a phone call away to help with any issues they may have. Both Brian and Ross would recommend Nevada to other farmers who are looking to put in a reliable and efficient effluent system that makes it easy to meet compliance. In Brian’s words,”This 12,800 litre Nevada slurry tanker does the job.”
