Broadwood International has announced its appointment as sole UK distributor of the Hustler range of bale handling equipment. Integrating perfectly with Broadwood's policy of supplying innovative yet practical equipment, the Hustler brand is already well-recognised throughout much of the agricultural and equestrian world, where it has secured an enviable reputation for high build quality and ease of use.

Designed and built to highest standards in New Zealand since 1963, the range includes the

CH-2000 chainless feeder, which will feed out both round and square bales of hay, straw, silage and haylage. Using a simple and extremely low maintenance design, with no chain drives to maintain or break down, the CH-2000 allows the farmer to feed out virtually any type of bale, round or square, with infinitely variable feed flow direct from the tractor cab via a hydraulically adjustable feed platform.

Other key features of the CH-2000 include; a powerful hydraulic drive system; a simple quick-couple bale fork for self-loading by way of the tractor's 3-point linkage; stable, secure and low-stress mounting system; and a long service life as a result of an uncomplicated and sturdy build.

Thanks to a feed action designed to tease the bale out rather than simply unrolling it, the CH-2000 makes the maximum use of the bale, as the straw is laid out on the ground instead of the traditional method of chopping the straw which then falls into the ground or is easily blown away. With feed prices increasing steadily over the past year this feature alone should appeal to dairy, equestrian and livestock managers in every field.
