Hope Acres Farm, Pennsylvania
	Hope Acres Farm in Pennsylvania: 300 cows Dairy + 1500 Beef Hay/Silage: 200 ha, total 750 ha. “I was on a trip to Europe, saw the wagon work – decision was quite easy. When we came home and did a bit of research, it was clear that Pöttinger's wagon was exactly what we were looking for. We were told about the capacity and it sounded really good, but when we got the wagon into work it was even much better! We are doing mainly alfalfa, and the work where we were in the past 3 – 4 persons we are now only 2!
This new principle of silage making is working very well in our conditions. The chopping process is a lot different to the exact chopper, but for our use it is better in all way… We are now getting better feed, we are saving money on fuel, manpower, machinery investment, and the "power supply" for the wagon is a tractor that we can use for other things when we are finished the silage“! “We are thinking about a Jumbo wagon because we will have to do more silage in the future, and this wagon will fit our Fendt 926 better“.

Claus Herron, Thomasville, Georgia
Claus Herron run a dairy unit, milking 900 cows at Thomasville, Georgia. He runs Pöttinger Europrofi 1 & 2, Jumbo 7200, Novacat 306 FED. They farms 600 acre hay/silage. “We were in a situation where we would like to do more than the normal 3 cuts a year. The problem was just that our contractor charged us by the acre and not by the hour! This would have made it more costly for us and therefore we decided to do it our self. Our local dealer was already dealing with Pöttinger and then the decision was easy, because we knew those machines from Germany.
We are happy about the loader wagon capacity; we save a lot of money when we do this our self and we think it will be difficult to find a better way to make grass silage. We are doing ryegrass, and with the loader- wagon we are getting more structure in the feed. Because of the structure, we are able to feed more silage to the cows“. Claus Herron Thomasville, Georgia

Jack Kempenaar, Como, Texas
	Jack Kempenaar is owner of Meadow Valley Dairy Farm with 3000 cows. He runs 2 Novacat 8600 ED, Eurohit 91 AZ, 2 Eurotop. “We immigrated from Holland long time ago, and when we needed a new mower combination, we knew the Pöttinger brand from Holland and knew the quality and thinking behind. The capacity and the work are very good, but in the dairy farming today the grass silage making is one of the points where we can easily increase the output! Better grass silage is worth gold – and this is possible with machines from Pöttinger.
We had already Fendt tractors (also from Europe) and the mower combinations that we have can run in reverse mode, and this is for us the perfect way to go! Even the Pöttinger's North America head office is in Canada they are OK on the service, and the parts we can also get in a fair time“. Jack Kempenaar Como, Texas

Dann Volkmann, Henning, Minnesota
Dann Volkmann has no specific farm, he owns and operates a custom work business, specializing in grass harvesting for quality hay production. Dann runs Pöttinger Eurotop 771 & 1251, Novacat 305 HED & 306 FED. “When we are doing high quality hay, we need good machines! After a research on the market the decision was quite clear. Pöttinger is not the cheapest machines, but if you com- pare the price/value, Pöttinger gives you the best for the money! The mowers are doing the cleanest cut I've ever seen, this is a very important thing in alfalfa growing.
When you have a clean cut you have a faster re-growth! We like the way the machines are built in general! They do not look too heavy, but the engineering behind, and the steel quality on the machines make them run for a long time without any kind of troubles“. „The service we have from Pöttinger was not too good, but since last year when Pöttinger made their own company in Canada, we have been really satisfied with the small warranty cases we had on our big rake“.
