Spring is in the air….. I must admit I am looking forward to the weather warming up and maybe some spring showers.
The last weekend of August did bring some rain, which was very much appreciated – Dorrigo didn’t have a huge
amount – about 14 ml in our gauge, Woolgoolga received about 62ml – it was so good to hear the rain on the roof,
although the thunder and lightning was a li)le scary. Our neighbours out west did receive some, but not all that had
been forecast.
I would like to make our customers aware of the huge effort from Plateau Farms (the Guest Family) to the Drought
Relief cause. They organised a semi-trailer load of fruit and vegetables that they packed and delivered to many needy
communi3es. Stan Cork Machinery gave a small dona3on to help cover some of the fuel costs and I am unsure how
they did it, but our small part has been acknowledged by one of the recipients. We received a beau3ful and heart-
breaking thank you le)er from a lady living near Walge). She described her plight and the fact that one box of fruit
and vegetables brought so much joy. She said that they have had one good season in the past 7 years, they have had
to sell a lot of their machinery to help them stay afloat. As I said, it was heartbreaking reading her le)er, but certainly
made me realise just how tough things are. A big thank you to the Guest Family and to other locals that have been
contribu3ng in so many ways.
As I write this, Gary is on a plane to Canada, he will spend the next 5 days exploring Vancouver and then fishing at a
resort not far from Vancouver. This is a trip Stan Cork Machinery achieved through the Kubota Rewards program. It’s a
shame he doesn’t eat fish and drink wine. The brochure describes the gastronomic delights that he will experience – I
feel they will be wasted on him – I could have happily le> him to do the fishing and I could have helped with the ea3ng
and drinking .... Shame there was only one trip! A>er he returns, he then travels to Swain’s Reef, along with Nick
Beaumont, for the annual fishing trip up there.

If an accurate spread pa�ern with precision rate control is important to
you, then Giltrap spreaders are what you are looking for. All Giltrap ma-
chines are fi�ed standard, with hydraulic belt drive electronically con-
trolled from the tractor cab, with consistent and repeatable spread
se ngs.
All you need to know is the fer!liser density, your spreading width and
the desired applica!on rate - the computer does the rest so you can fo-
cus on driving.
The 3mm corrosion resistant stainless steel bin will last for years and
the 850mm wide rubber belt lets you spread almost anything you can
think of.
