El Niño affects producers across South Africa with drought and feed shortages. Here is how adding a TMR mixer protects your dairy herd through the uncertainty.

Auger design is the variable most operators never audit. These five engineering features cut mixing time, lower fuel draw, and improve TMR uniformity.

A decagonal tub TMR design forces feed back toward the auger on every pass. Here's why that geometry matters more than most operators realize.

Choosing between stainless steel and painted hoppers is a ten-year cost decision. Here's the corrosion chemistry that makes the difference visible within seasons.

ISOBUS does more than connect machines. Here's what it actually changes when you manage TMR ration accuracy at the mixer on a working morning.

Get vertical TMR mixer sizing wrong and you pay for it every feed cycle. Here's how to match capacity to herd size, ration density, and real-world loads.

Stainless steel hoppers cost more upfront. Over ten years, that gap nearly disappears. Here's how to run the numbers for your own operation.

Grade 80 mining chain is rated 25% higher than Grade 70 at the same diameter. Here's why that matters for rear-discharge spreader longevity.

Dry summers harden pen-pack manure and spike floor chain loads. Here's why a hard look at spreader chain grade matters before something breaks mid-field.

A worn or wrong-sized auger kicker is the cheapest fix in the mixer — and the most overlooked cause of dead spots and poor TMR uniformity.
