The Bizon company delivered to the enterprise of Don Mais-Agro LLC one tractor Challenger MT 765 °C for the springtime field works. The vehicle is already on the fields of the vegetable farm. Its appearance grows plans to increase the area under crop from 2000 to 3500 hectares.
— We would like to cultivate the land quickly, effectively and, above all, with minimum expenses, — said Denis Karassev, the director of the Mais-Agro LLC. — Our tractor range became old, not only technically but morally. And every year more and more expenses are needed to its exploitation and repair works. We will make all work volume for the spring and autumn land cultivation with Challenger.
The enterprise is occupied with agricultural production since 1992. Is specialized in wheat, maize and soy-bean cultivation. The company count on resource-saving farming technologies, aimed at increasing facility and crop capacity.
— Choosing tractor the main attention we payed to the level of land cultivation, units reliability, engine type and service cost, — mentioned Denis Karassev. — Powerfull engine (320 HP), automatic gearbox, 3-point mounting and, of course, the long-term production history of Caterpillar technics played their role. But the key factor is the Bizon’s after-sales service accessibility,The nearest service centre is located in 65 km from our farmland. Availability of consumed materials, spare parts, repair and diagnostic equipment give confidence that in any case all agrotechnical works will be made in time.
Of course there was a worry about the future reduction of the technics range, as people remind at the farm. But instead of reduction there were employed two new specialists. So the team supported the tractor purchase.
— It’s a good factor of our technological grow and economical development, — count the director of the farm enterprise. — Every modernization of the productional process give positive effect just because the work become less labor-consuming and more comfortable. And please do not forget about the image. Such kind of technics add the prestige, that is very important, when the profession of grain-grower is not on top among the young people. Today we feel the shortage of new young specialists.
Also the Mais-Agro company bought the cultivator «Korund».They plan to add the equipment with deep ripper and disc harrow. As well as self-propelled sprinkler.
— Our neighbours often ask why we bought Challenger, — shared the head of the farm. — But you can’t explain to everyone what does it mean the composure and the confidence when planning and doing works. Especially at the village, where, as known, one day feeds the whole year.
