“I see the main benefit of the grain tank is as a labor-saving device,” said KC Olson, associate professor in Animal Sciences and Industries at Kansas State University.

Normally, feeding hay and concentrate means two machines and two trips through the feeding area.

“The expense that is saved in a $3.50/gallon diesel fuel market is pretty important,” Olson said. “That time you spend making a second trip out to the cows (that is) lost with the feed truck, you could spend doing something else.”

Haybuster is a Silver level sponsor of North Dakota's Farm Rescue Organization

Farm Rescue is a nonprofit organization that helps family farmers bridge crises so they may have an opportunity to continue viable operations

Farm Rescue's mission is to provide assistance to farm families that have experienced a major illness, injury or an act of nature that has caused undue financial hardship.

Funding & Volunteers
Farm Rescue does not distribute funds to farmers. Donations are used to pay for the expenses associated with planting crops. Labor for operating the equipment is provided by Farm Rescue volunteers. In fact, Farm Rescue is operated entirely by volunteers.
