Victorian Farmers Federation Collaboration
Over the last nine months, Haymate Australia have been working closely with the John Darcy from Victorian Famers Federation to improve the safety of the Haymate Range.
We knew we had a machine that could feed out silage and hay in a much safer way than hopping on and off a vehicle that was moving along solo in low range. But we wanted to be the safest machine on the market. John made some recommendations, which we took on board.
At the Elmore Field Days where were awarded the Australian Machine of the Year Award.
Thank you John for your safety recommendations, we strive to keep our farmers farming longer and safer.

We strive for Customer Satisfaction
I bought the Haymate to save time and labour as we are getting older. We are very pleased with the extremely high-quality build and finish, the paintwork is superb, we have fed out 4×3×8ft. high density bales, it is purely a one man or woman operation, the only pest is we have to cut the strings!!! We found that by putting the bales on edge that was an easy job and we could get 5 on. I have recommended the machine to several who have ordered one too. Andy has been wonderful to work with.
After cutting mainly silage hay in 2022, my next problem was feeding stock. After seeing All Custom Engineering’s Haymate and speaking to other owners of the Haymate I had to have one. I can’t believe the time it's saving me feeding my stock and the easy and safety components of the whole machine. It is absolutely brilliant. The way the machine feeds the hay out, at a rate of your choice. The stock does not leave a single piece of hay behind. I’ve been feeding square silage, 8x4 cereal hay, and round bales with the Haymate and have not found a single fault or anything it can’t do. The whole team at All Custom Engineering were fantastic to deal with. I would highly recommend the Haymate to any farmer.
The haymate has made feeding our stock an absolute pleasure, instead of a chore. We feed lambing ewes through summer & autumn with square & round bale silage. The haymate can carry multiple bales, and towed with a telehandler carrying 2 more bales, it makes the whole process extremely efficient for just one person. It means a tremendous saving in labour, and time. It is extremely well built, and the remotes make the machine a must-have for all feed-out operations. Well done, Andrew!
