Westfield, N.C. — As we get deeper into the growing season the availability of moisture to support plant growth in pastures and fields is a problem in many areas. The transition from a La Nina to an El Nino marks a major shift in weather patterns and the timing of the shift creates uncertainty about how much moisture will be available in key growing areas.
July is Smart Irrigation Month and a great opportunity for farmers to explore irrigation opportunities and enhance existing systems.
“Having the opportunity to turn the water on or off as needed is a tremendous asset to farmers where moisture availability is a concern,” says Pat Driscoll, founder and CEO of The Certified Agriculture Group . “For farmers needing new irrigation systems, needing to fix existing irrigation equipment or needing other cutting edge crop technologies, getting an AgPack® can bring significant savings to all these drought mitigation resources through the purchase of their truck from a Certified Agriculture Dealer.”
Here are a few AgPack+ partners that offer savings for farmers needing to spend more money than ever managing dry conditions:
- Reinke has been dedicated to helping growers maximize yields with durable and innovative irrigation systems since 1954. AgPack participants can get thousands in savings on new equipment, and parts for existing systems.
- For farmers who want to apply fertilizer through their irrigation system, AgroLiquid—another AgPack partner—offers a $2000 discount on crop nutrition products that can be applied directly through irrigation systems.
- To keep equipment running clean, Mystik lubricants offer nearly $1000 in savings on specialized performance lubricants developed for real-world conditions in agricultural applications.
- And when moisture makes the grass grow, keep it in check with mowers from Rhino Ag & Dixie Chopper. AgPack recipients get an exclusive and significant discount off the purchase of these Alamo Agriculture product lines.
AgPack represents a robust bundle of exclusive supply discounts and rebates from 27 top ag companies. AgPack is complimentary with the purchase of any qualifying new or pre-owned truck or SUV, exclusively from a Certified Agriculture Dealer.
“Farmers can’t get these exclusive AgPack discounts and rebates anywhere else,” says Driscoll. “It’s up to the farmer and rancher if they want to use a few of the offers, or use them all, whatever they decide over 12 months. Either way, the AgPack program provides a return on their truck investment that can’t be found anywhere else. If you need a new or used truck anyway, it only makes sense to buy it from a Certified Agriculture Dealer so you can get AgPack with the vehicle. Not to mention, these dealers have gone through specialized training so they can give farmers and ranchers an experience more like all the other dealers farmers and ranchers work with on a daily basis.”
When the discounts and offers from AgPack partners are used, the total return on investment available now represents as much as than $48,000* in aggregated farm/ranch supply savings. Last year, AgPack redemption savings have averaged $19,172 per truck that farmers and ranchers purchased.
