Successful hay growers are always striving to learning about innovative technologies and new practices that will provide them a positive return on investment and improve their bottom line. We invite you to an educational event created with these hay producers in mind.

On Thursday, June 21, the Peterson Cat's Klamath Falls location will be hosting a Hay Day featuring Dan Putnam, nationally recognized forage expert from UC Davis. Putnam will discuss the latest hay harvest management practices and explain the impact different harvesting equipment has on hay quality.

The harvesting experts from AGCO, Hesston Hay, and Peterson Cat also will be on hand to demonstrate the latest harvesting technologies and to demonstrate new equipment such as the newly Hesston by Massey Ferguson WR9900 Series self-propelled windrower, the industry’s leading Hesston 2200 Series large square baler and the innovative Fendt 900 Vario tractor.
