Harvest Tec

The hay farming segment, a crucial and timeless form of agriculture, has undergone a significant transformation, evolving from traditional to hi-tech methods of preservation. There is a constant need for solutions to overcome weather-related challenges that impair hay preservation and enhance the quality of life for farmers tending to hay.

This is where Harvest Tec, a farm equipment supplier, moves the needle with its pioneering equipment and products that aid farmers in making quality hay. It empowers farmers to produce, preserve, and sell high-quality hay and addresses the challenges they face from unpredictable weather conditions, leading to too high or too low moisture content in hay that sets the ground for crop damage.

“We offer top quality hay tools that suit any farm operation and promote enhanced hay preservation,” says Madie Rehnelt, customer sales and service representative at Harvest Tec.

At Harvest Tec, solutions are tailored to address two primary types of hay production—wet and dry hay. In regions experiencing frequent rainfall and struggling with excess moisture, issues like mold and difficulty in storage arise.

Harvest Tec offers applicators, moisture sensing technology, and preservatives for hay preservation in wet environments, with various levels of automation to suit different customer needs. Its products range from simple, cost-effective base applicators to fully automated systems with built-in moisture sensors that help eliminate the guesswork in hay preservation.

In arid climates where hay can be too dry for convenient baling, Harvest Tec provides a solution known as the ‘dew simulator.’ This technology injects moisture into windrows during baling, enabling farmers to work on their own schedules and significantly improve hay quality.

Harvest Tec’s technology has found favor among younger generations of hay farmers. With an eye on innovative tools and a better quality of life, they aim to avoid late-night baling while waiting for dew and minimize exposure to harsh weather like the hot scorching sun. Harvest Tec’s hay equipment and tools enable them to efficiently bale without depending on the dew or the weather, allowing them finish on time instead of spending long hours in the fields.

With its vast experience in the industry, Harvest Tec takes pride in its deep-rooted relationships with OEMs. These long-term partnerships have solidified its market presence and reputation as an agent of quality, with its products sold under their respective OEM brands.

Besides strong partnerships in the industry, customization of products is another key to its success. Harvest Tec works with OEMs to fit its products onto any baler, regardless of size, shape, color, make, or model, ensuring compatibility with diverse farming operations. With Harvest Tec's customized kits, customers get the right part number for their specific baler for each farmer's operation.

In line with customizing products, it has prioritized customer feedback since inception. Harvest Tec has expanded its product line by understanding its customers, dealers, and OEMs and directing R&D efforts centred on their voices. One example is its moisture sensing technology, which enables precise preservative application based on real-time moisture content.

In addition to product offerings, Harvest Tec distinguishes itself in the industry through exceptional customer service. The company fosters direct connections between customers and team members who share a passion for agriculture. This approach enables it to comprehend customers' challenges and requirements and deliver swift and comprehensive support. Its training program further equips its team with the knowledge and skills to assist customers effectively.

Harvest Tec has become the go-to farming equipment provider for hay producers, with a legacy of four decades of innovation, customer-centricity, and passion for the industry. Its commitment to go beyond providing tools and equipment and connecting with customers on a personal level paves the path for it to become a trusted advisor for all hay farming needs.
