A great eighth NFMS Machinery newsletter in the works

Subscribers will receive the newsletter on May 20

By Farms.com

An eighth newsletter dedicated to the National Farm Machinery Show will arrive in subscriber inboxes on Monday, May 20.

As previously noted, a team from Farms.com attended the show in Louisville, Ky., in February and has since been working to edit and post interviews with manufacturer reps showing off new and available products to farmers.

“We thought we had around 70 interviews recorded,” said Ryan Ridley, digital marketing and PR manager with Farms.com. “But we discovered that by the time we’re finished, our team will have put together more than 90 videos. It’s an incredible effort by everyone involved and we sincerely hope our readers have found the content helpful.”

Here’s some previews about what readers can expect to see in the latest newsletter.

Rickie Jenin with Versatile provides an overview of the company’s Nemesis Series.

This series has five models available, ranging in HP from 175 to 255.

Some of the features related to this series include one of the largest cabs in the industry and an advanced hydraulics system.

Curt Davis, a rep from Kuhn, discusses the Montag dry fertilizer system installed on a Gladiator 1210.

The system allows for dual product delivery simultaneously—even with variable rate control.

And Nolan Bangert, a representative from Toro, shows off the manufacturer’s GrandStand MULTIFORCE mower.

This machine is a stand-on mower that can cut grass, power broom, leaf rake, bag, and plow snow.

Another topic covered in this upcoming newsletter edition is mental health.

Learn about Raising Hope, an organization dedicated to supporting and advocating for farmer mental health.

And watch a firefighter trained in grain bin rescue receive a Raising Hope coin.
