  • We couldn't head out for second cut without paying a visit to see Killen Bros. and their new Krone 1180 harvester! 😍 We took the opportunity to bring the Hornet and the Smyth trailer up and even got the Supercube hooked onto the 8s for a day! Jonny Killen chatted to us about what made them take the plunge on the 1180 and other changes with their fleet since we last caught them at silage! What a set up these guys have! 😎💪
    GRASSMEN are the fast-paced, global agriculture phenomenon whose video content and merchandise are recognised worldwide. The business was started in 2009 by current director Gareth Gault, known to fans as ‘Donkey’. His love and passion for machinery allowed him to experiment with cameras and upload content to RUclips. To his surprise, a large following soon developed and the niche in the market for real-life, documentary, farming and machinery action made it possible to drive the brand forward.
    We at GRASSMEN, pride ourselves on providing an exclusive look into agricultural manufacturers, meeting real, working farmers, showing and demonstrating farming machinery through all seasons such as silage and slurry, and ultimately educating and entertaining our fans.
    If you love all things agriculture from top manufacturers such as John Deere, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, JCB, Land Rover and many many more, come and join #teamgrassmen​, we would love to have you.

    I admire a man like him because he says as it is.
    No bullshit .
    Just straight to the point.
    Also looks after his staff not changing driver's around?
    The only way to look after machines.

    Excellent outfit of machines. He has good business sense too, its all about what deal you can get these days and back up, whatever colour machine you buy. It's all about that diesel consumption and keeping those good drivers in the team. It's only going to get more competitive to make a profit.

      Pal of mine demo’d an MF 8740S, a Fendt 942 and a Claas Axion 960. According to him the Fendt and Massey were a big disappointment, and the Claas just walked away from them, apparently the Fendt/Massey Vario uses a lot of hydrostatic drive in the field ranges which loses you a lot of power. That was tillage work though, so might be a completely different story for mowing, buck raking or carting grass.

    Do grassmen just rent tractors and trailers to other contractors??

    Don’t you have a proper CLAAS dealer nearby? Or is the diesel just free in Ireland? The JAGUAR 990 beats the BIG X 1180 at all times in a head to head match - on performance as well as diesel consumption.
