Advanced Telehandlers for Livestock, Dairy, And Large Bale Operations

New Holland has launched updates to its TH Series Telehandlers, designed to enhance efficiency for livestock, dairy, and large bale farming operations.

These telehandlers provide advanced features to meet the growing demands of farmers.

Farms.com met with Lena Bioni, product marketing manager with New Holland, to explore these updates.

The TH Series offers two models: the 7.42 and the 9.35. The 7.42 model reaches 7 metres and lifts up to 4,200 kilograms, while the 9.35 model reaches 9 metres and lifts 3,500 kilograms.

Both units are powered by a 4-cylinder FPT engine and include a 6 forward gear, 3 reverse gear transmission. They can achieve speeds of up to 25 mph, making transport between fields fast and efficient.

The cab upgrades are designed for operator comfort and improved usability. A standout feature is the new 7-inch LCD display with a rear-view camera, now standard for all models.

Operators will also benefit from a shuttling lever integrated into the joystick, allowing smooth forward and reverse movements, particularly useful when moving bales.

The most notable addition is the Forklift Mode. This feature allows the telehandler to operate like a forklift by raising and lowering the carriage without manually adjusting the boom.

This simplifies operations, especially when handling loads. Operators can also set upper and lower height limits, ideal for working in confined spaces, such as barns, to avoid collisions with rafters or the floor.

Video: Dicamba Returns for Georgia Farmers: What the New EPA Ruling Means for Cotton Growers

After being unavailable in 2024 due to registration issues, dicamba products are returning for Georgia farmers this growing season — but under strict new conditions.

In this report from Tifton, Extension Weed Specialist Stanley Culpepper explains the updated EPA ruling, including new application limits, mandatory training requirements, and the need for a restricted use pesticide license. Among the key changes: a cap of two ½-pound applications per year and the required use of an approved volatility reduction agent with every application.

For Georgia cotton producers, the ruling is significant. According to Taylor Sills with the Georgia Cotton Commission, the vast majority of cotton planted in the state carries the dicamba-tolerant trait — meaning farmers had been paying for technology they couldn’t use.

While environmental groups have expressed concerns over spray drift, Georgia growers have reduced off-target pesticide movement by more than 91% over the past decade. Still, this two-year registration period will come with increased scrutiny, making stewardship and compliance more important than ever.
