Another proud owner of a simplicity unit is Urania farmer Ken Watson. “At the end of seeding in 2002, I realised that I was being left behind with modern technology. The Air Seeder I was using just couldn’t keep up with the demands of our farm and its’ seeding requirements, and with having such a late break in 2002, I was forced to employ a contractor to help seed 2300 acres. He did so with his simplicity 9000l Triple Box, and it impressed me so much that I began researching these machines immediately.”
“I purchased a 12000l Triple Box with urea spreaders on a 42ft universal bar. I chose to have a bin split of 30% 40% 30%, which is perfectly suited for our farm and the way we run it. The initial seeding in 2003 was a bit daunting with calibrating & computer systems, however I soon grasped the concept of the capability of the machine, and farming took a turn for the better! We now only have one pass with ease of operation, less “running” around for trucks (and myself), reduced fuel usage (no pre-drilling urea), and better crops!”
“Purchasing this Air Seeder has proved to be major bonus for me as it is less labour intensive and more time efficient. The computer system of the Simplicity is easy to use and understand, the accuracy of the scales is fantastic, calibration and cleaning out is easy, and having back up from G & J East, I know I have made the right decision! This machine has changed the way we farm and the way we look forward to a positive future with technology, and G & J East are certainly leading the way”
