FAST, NON-STOP HARVESTING.
Farmers report that our 7-ft. 272
Cut/Ditioner actually does more
work than a 9-ft. mower-condition
er, because the Cut/Ditioner is
virtually plug-free.
Since less downtime means more
production, just think how much
more work you can do with either
of our Cut/Ditioners ... especially
the 9-ft. 279!
HARVEST THE KIND OF HAY LIVE
STOCK PREFER. Cut/Ditioners
provide uniform conditioning and
mixing of plant butts and tops.
That means you get a softer hay,
the kind that livestock will choose
instead of mower-conditioned hay
if you give them a choice.
MAKE DOWNED, TANGLED HAY
PART OF YOUR HARVEST.

won't plug or skip, they do a real
job in down and tangled hay. In
some conditions, Cut/Ditioners
harvest 25% more than mower
conditioners, because the rotary
knives of the Cut/Ditioners lift
more of the stalk before cutting.
HARVEST HAY THAT DRIES
FASTER. Cut/Ditioners produce
fluffy windrows with greater air
circulation so you're assured of
drying rates that are equal to
and often faster than other hay
makers.
CUT/DITIONING LEADS TO
FASTER REGROWTH. Tests show
that the somewhat frayed stubbie
resulting from harvesting with New
Idea Cut/Ditioners actually helps
speed regrowth by reflecting
sunlight, and thereby retaining
more ground moisture than from
the stuobie remaining.
