CUSTOMER STORIES
PROVEN IN THE PADDOCK
Hear from the farmers who put Rata equipment to work every day.
From past experience I have been impressed with the durability and simplicity of the gear.
The product is quality, and they stand behind it.
Rata is built around service. They've been brilliant, not just when they sold us the product, but the support along the way.
I'm impressed with the results these discs give, they contour the ground & hills while staying in the ground actually disking, even in this harder, dryer stony ground so I'm pretty pleased.
We have a range of Rata Equipment, from Pallet Forks and Bale Forks, to about 13 or 14 Grabs across our dairy farms.
We're in our second year of operation with the Rata Beet Bucket now. We've just been transitioning some weaner heifers to beet over the past few weeks so it's been getting a lot of work just recently, it certainly saves us a lot of time and particularly a lot of man hours, so all in all the buckets done exactly what we asked of it.
I got hold of Rata when I needed a Silage Grab, Forks & Quick Hitch. From past experience I had been impressed with the durability & simplicity of the gear. The Silage Grab has performed very well & the Quick Hitch makes the job so much easier, this one is well up there! Very high rated - so I can virtually pick up any load. They've definitely helped me out!
We do about 4,000 individual wrapped bales per year, so its important to us to have Rata softhands to handle them, as they are really reliable, they don't break & are definitely the best brand we've ever used! Because we've found Rata gear to be so reliable we also have multiple sets of their Bale Forks & Versatile Grapples as well!
I bought a Rata Panerazer a bit over a year ago & have had great results out of it. Crops seem to get established earlier & also hang on for longer when its dry. We've also found when we have heavy rains & would normally get a bit of scouring… where we've used the Panerazer there's been no run off at all. It's a great bit of kit!
I've saved time. I've saved energy. It takes the place of about three men. It's invaluable, really.
It's paid for itself ten times over. Easy.
It gets punished every week, and I've never had a single thing go wrong with it.
