Cotton farmers must have the right equipment designed to handle the necessary heavy work. Along with standard agricultural farming equipment like plows and seeders, most cotton farmers will need the right type of commercial cotton mover for moving cotton from field to gin or to move bales to storage bins and other facilities. Learn what to look for before buying any of these types of commercial cotton related mover machinery.
Find a Commercial Cotton Mover Able to Carry High Over Stalks
There are all sorts of sizes and types of designs when it comes to commercial-grade movers used for cotton crops. One of the most important things to ensure before acquiring a mover is to ensure that the one chosen has the capacity to carry the cotton high enough where it is over top of the height of the cotton stalks in the field. If not, those stalks will break causing difficulties for the farmer.
Make Sure the Lifting Weight Capacity is Suited for Your Needs
Cotton movers that are of industrial/commercial grade can be found with different weight capacity and lifting capacity numbers. Be sure that this lifting weight capacity amount is suited for your specific farm needs and requirements. Otherwise, the work will take longer, won’t be as efficient, and can damage crops still in the field.
Decide if Needing Cotton Mover With/Without Spears
Along with things like matching torque requirements and maximum pressure, decide on whether spears are necessary.
