Keeping skilled full-time staff busy in quieter months is a challenge for many farming operations. In order to retain its valued team, the Kane family is leaning on its engineering know-how to manufacture a lime spreader range under the SpreadPoint banner. We take an exclusive look at the SP600

Understanding the importance of reliable lime application has prompted the father and son team of Noel and Richard Kane to make their own machine. And the long-term plan is to develop a range under the SpreadPoint banner. Farming over 400ha of arable crops, it was not just the demand for a machine that initiated this project but also the opportunity to keep their farm staff busy in the quieter month.
