Diesel Effluent Pump: Garth Chose the Alternative Pump

‘By the time the old pump and tractor wore out, it was time for an upgrade anyway. The farm was expanding, so it made sense to re-assess the situation.’
Garth Pickford – Dairy Farmer, Hunterville

Talking with Lloyd, there were two options. Garth could go down the familiar path of another PTO pump, or there were some new Nevada diesel pumps on their way. Although both options are mobile, having just acquired a second farm, Garth saw opportunity in the more powerful diesel pump option that wouldn’t tie up his tractor.

‘The diesel engine unit, coupled with the massive capacity Bauer pump would give me way more options, and I’d been absolutely wrapped with the Magnum irrigator and TurboStir.’

Garth’s had the new diesel pump for a few months now and is more than happy with his decision…

‘It’s great being able to set the pump and irrigator going while I’m using the tractor for something else. I can monitor the pump from my phone, and with the second farm I’ll be able to use it with an umbilical system.’
