Grass
High-Uniformity Irrigation for Lush, High-Protein Grass and Pasture
Whether you are managing intensive grazing lands for dairy and beef or producing high-quality hay for export, grass is a crop that thrives on consistency. Unlike many seasonal grains, grass requires sustained hydration throughout its multiple growing cycles to maintain its nutritional value and “stay-green” ability. H.T-BAUER provides heavy-duty irrigation solutions designed to cover vast acreages, ensuring your pastures remain productive even during the peak of the dry season.
Maximizing Dry Matter Intake (DMI)
For livestock farmers, the goal is high-quality forage. Proper irrigation increases the leaf-to-stem ratio of grass, making it more palatable and nutrient-dense. H.T-BAUER systems ensure that your pasture maintains the energy and protein levels required to support high milk yields and rapid weight gain in livestock.
Rapid Recovery Between Grazing Rotations
Intensive grazing puts stress on the grass canopy. To maintain a “permanent” pasture, the grass needs immediate hydration after cattle are moved to a different paddock. Our automated systems allow for rapid “recharge” irrigation, triggering immediate regrowth and reducing the recovery time between grazing cycles.
Dust Suppression & Soil Health
In arid regions, dry pastures can lead to soil erosion and dust-related respiratory issues for livestock. Regular, controlled irrigation keeps the soil structure intact and promotes a dense root mat, protecting your land’s long-term fertility and providing a cleaner environment for your animals.
Versatile Application for Different Species
From cool-season grasses like Ryegrass to hardy tropical species, water requirements vary significantly. Our Remote Control IoT System allows you to adjust application depths to match the specific evapotranspiration (ET) rates of your grass variety, ensuring you use only the water you need.
