Benefits

What Your Operation Gets Back

Wagon Results, No Wagon

Meters maize silage or grain with real control on a telehandler, without the cost of a dedicated mixer wagon.

Less Spillage, Less Waste

Twin mixing agitators and an auto-extending chute mean less feed lost over the side during feed-out.

Bridges the Capacity Gap

Covers the space between hand feeding and a full mixer wagon, so mid-size operations aren't stuck choosing extremes.

The details

What makes it work

  • 01

    Auto-Extending Chute

    The 300mm chute extends 275mm to reach feed pads and troughs, then retracts when you reverse the auger, keeping it protected when you're not feeding out.
  • 02

    Twin Mixing Agitators

    Twin agitators stop feed bridging and lightly mix it as it flows, so maize silage, palm kernel or grain feeds out at a steady, controlled rate.
  • 03

    One-Piece Rigid Shell

    Base, rear, top and front are formed from one piece for rigidity, with wear-resistant steel on the cutting edge and engaging surfaces for long service life.
  • 04

    Recessed Hydraulic Motors

    Hydraulic motors sit recessed in a cavity, protected from knocks around the feed pad, so the drive keeps running reliably day after day.
  • 05

    1.6m³ Capacity

    Carries 1.6m³ per load, with owners feeding out around 800kg of maize or palm kernel in 5 to 10 minutes: fast, even feeding without a mixer wagon.

Expert advice

Tips from the Rata team

  • The chute extends for discharge into troughs and feed pads, then retracts for storage, no need to leave it hanging out between jobs.

Customer story

Proven in the paddock

Hear from the cropping farmers who put Rata equipment to work every day.

“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.”

Common questions

We've got your back

Q: Will it bridge or block with damp feed? A: The twin mixing agitators are there to stop that, keeping material moving smoothly to the chute.
