OUR EQUIPMENT

​

As a young and growing operation, we don’t own brand new equipment but we certainly take great pride in maintaining and caring for the equipment we do have. Extensive research was conducted prior to purchasing our lineup of equipment; striking a balance between our budget, age of equipment, parts availability, quality and reliability and still being able to accomplish the same quality of work as today’s new equipment.

 From the preparatory work that is done prior to planting, clear through the growing season, to work completed post-harvest, L. Garrabrant Farms has equipped itself with a modern lineup of equipment with modern technologies to perform every step of the production process in house. We do not sub-contract or hire any work done.

TECHNOLOGY ​

​

L. Garrabrant Farms believes it is important to remain on the cutting edge of farming, utilizing technology available to aid in being environmentally conscious stewards of the land while maximizing our input efficiency and increasing profitability. All of our equipment is guided using GPS, our chicken litter spreader is equipped with a rate controller and scales, our sprayer is equipped with rate and section control, our planter is equipped with Precision Planting technology to increase seed use and placement efficiency and our combine utilizes Precision Planting’s highly accurate yield sense yield monitoring system.
