acker Neuson’s range of Ger-
man-engineered compact ma-
chines is high performance, ro-
bust, reliable and economical. Workhorses
that take South Africa’s wide diversity of
agricultural applications in their stride.
“South Africa’s agricultural industry has been
dealt a double blow, with having to face an
economy that is stagnant in terms of growth,
and deal with the reality of our worst drought
in years,” says Eugene Brown, Regional
President of Wacker Neuson in Sub-Saharan
Africa. “Finding ways to reduce operation-
al and input costs are fundamental to farm
sustainability and profitability, and quality
machines and equipment that are inexpen-
sive and easy to operate are therefore critical
for farmers. Whether crops, dairy, fruit, eggs
or meat, every farm requires lifting, stack-
ing and moving of materials and this type of
work must be done quickly and efficiently,
with the lowest possible input and operating
costs: This is where Wacker Neuson delivers
on its promise: All it Takes!”
Alongside a wide selection of attachments
such as bale and pallet forks, augers, tren-
chers, mulchers and mowers, mixing buck-
ets and many more, Wacker Neuson’s range
of skid steer loaders, wheel loaders, tele-
scopic wheel loaders, telehandlers, dumpers
and excavators can take on almost any task:
From the full feeding and mixing function
in feedlots, silage stacking and harvesting,
kraal cleaning, fence pole installation and
farm road maintenance, all the way through
to handling bulk containers of harvested veg-
etables in the fields.
“Additionally, the wide range of our equip-
ment allows farmers to utilise our construc-
tion-related industry expertise, specifically
within our lighting, pumping and generator
product groups, where we can offer world-
class solutions for night-work, water move-
ment and power supply problems which the
farmers may have to deal with,” adds Brown.
Farmers are assured of fast, specialist after
sales service, offering effective maintenance
and repair of their Wacker Neuson machines
and equipment, from the company’s strate-
gically located dealer network.
With a long and distinguished record of
service to agricultural customers across
the globe, Wacker Neuson is proud to con-
tinue this tradition locally by showcasing its
impressive agri-offering again this year at
Nampo 2016 (stand # 249), as well as at
the Royal Agricultural Show (Block E, stand
# 19A).
