Farmhand appointed exclusive distributors of Amazone ground care machinery

Farmhand, which has been distributing Amazone agricultural machinery for almost 60 years, has recently been appointed sole distributor for the Amazone ground care range across the island of Ireland.

This will be headed up by Farmhand’s Adrian Leech, who has many years of experience in ground care equipment. Farmhand is planning to develop a new ground care dealer network in Ireland and Northern Ireland for both sales and service in the coming months.

Amazone offers some of the most unique grass cutting and collection mowers on the market specifically engineered for sports turf, landscaping contractors, national parks, private estates and stud farms. Within the extensive range of machines, there is a model to meet the demands of every customer, according to Farmhand.
For the stud-farmer, for example, the Amazone HorseHopper, with a working width of 1.35m to 2.10m, can be attached to a small tractor and does everything in a single pass: mowing, aerating, cutting and collection. The HorseHopper is equipped with wing blades and scarifying blades for the collection of wet grass mixed with horse droppings. The scarifying blades loosen the horse droppings from the turf. During mowing, the wing blades convey the horse droppings to the hopper together with the grass. 

The HorseHopper neatly mows down heavy grass patches and weeds for well-maintained paddocks to keep horses happy and healthy. Amazone’s Groundkeeper is an ideal all-round machine for pollinators and wildflower management, large open spaces, sports pitches and public parks
