Tom Krall, a dairy farmer in Lebanon County, PA, installed a
hammer mill from Automatic Farm Systems last spring. He feels
it’s been a very wise move financially.
“I had all my feed delivered, other than silage. Now I’ll buy corn
and barley cheaper, at harvest, and save on hauling and grind
ing. My initial cost, operating cost, and maintenance cost are all
low. I expect this machine will pay for itself in a year.”
“It’s a pretty handy machine. It’s all automatic, so it doesn’t cre
ate any extra work. And it’s not dusty like a roller mill because it’s
all enclosed.”
Give us a call to learn how an AFS hammer mill will work on
your dairy operation.
