Tips and Guides

Future Grass Technology Ltd (Grass Tech) based in Borris, Co Carlow, has been innovating in
engineering for over a decade, enabling farmers to profit from grass.
At Grass Tech we are not just interested in manufacturing quality machinery, we want our customers
to get real monetary returns from their investment – whether it be a zero-grazing machine or a
seeder. We pride ourselves in maintaining a close relationship with each of our customers before
and after purchasing. We seek continual improvement and achieve this by examining feedback and –
in the case of zero-grazing machines – monitoring herd performance of our customers to see how
the grazer has worked for them.
It is widely known the advantages of having a Grass Tech Grazer to use on fragmented land but we
are interested in how zero-grazing as a farming methodology can influence profit. As land becomes
the new quota, we are passionate in ensuring that farmers are getting the most from every acre of
land they have. This is why we have developed additional machines to ensure each farmer can profit
from grass. Our pro-drill seeder and our dribble bar for slurry distribution both ensure farmers are
saving both time and money so that they can focus their efforts on growing their income.
Evidence from our customers is showing that milk yields, milk solids and live weight can improve by
incorporating zero-grazing onto a farm.
Future Grass Technology Ltd was established by industrial engineer and farmer Jim Barron, who for
20 years worked with Keenan before becoming the brainchild of the Grass Tech zero-grazing
machine, plus the various machines which followed. Business has been booming and Grass Tech has
quickly become Europe’s largest producer of zero-grazing machines. As well as a thriving domestic
market, Grass Tech have distributors in Holland, Denmark, Italy and even Kenya! The developing
product line only ensures that Grass Tech continues to move from strength to strength.
Service and Support: All Grass Tech machines are manufactured to the highest standard, but as with
any agricultural machine in daily use, we do appreciate that problems can occur. We believe that the
measure of a company is how a problem is handled when it does occur, and it is our aim to ensure
that you are back up and running as soon as possible. All our dealers have the support of our
dedicated service team and rapid availability of any spare parts they don’t hold, ensuring that they
can quickly and efficiently get you back profiting from grass.
