Full speed ahead for Murraytown farmer

Topcon TODAY

Todd Orrock, owner/operator of Orrock Farming, grows wheat, barley, canola and peas on approximately 2,400 hectares in the Murraytown area of South Australia.

With three New Holland tractors and a New Holland combine, Todd likes to say, “We’re a bit blue.” Todd is a big user of GPS systems from Topcon Precision Agriculture, having “a couple of X20 consoles, a System 350 with the new X30 console and a System 150.”

Orrock said, “We use Topcon GPS for all of our seeding and spraying, plus for contract work and that includes autosteering on all of our tractors and the combine. We also use it for boom spray rate control.”
