This baling season Tama, the world’s largest manufacturer of crop baling products, has launched a new campaign to celebrate the hard work and dedication UK farmers and contractors make every year to help feed our country.

“The idea behind the campaign is simple, we want to give recognition to the country’s hard working farmers and contractors,” said Tama UK Commercial Manager, Warren Tatton. “These guys and girls work tirelessly, year on year, to feed the country and all that hard work, so often, goes unrecognised…rarely is a ‘thank you’ or ‘good job’ heard.

“We want them to know people are watching and we appreciate all that they do, and we think they are doing an amazing job. A pat on the back and a few encouraging words can make a big difference to all of us, but farmers don’t hear it enough; we want to change all that, if only in a small way.”

Searching the country for the best bales

Of course, Tama can’t claim to be experts on every area of farming, it would be hypocritical to call people out for great work in areas where they don’t have expertise.  Which is why they are concentrating on the area they know the best; crop baling.

Tama’s experts are always out and about across the country assisting customers to get the most out of their balers.  This year, as part of this campaign they will also be keeping an eye out for the very best bales, and when they find a field of amazing bales the entire Tama family will be saying ‘great job, well done’ – simply because not enough people do!

This season; check your bales

With no sales push and no hidden agenda involved, Tama simply want to recognise a job well done and provide a reward of a few beers for the hard-working farmers and contractors of the UK.  Something they can share with friends and family confident in the knowledge they are one of the UK’s Star Balers… they’ll even be adding winners to their ‘Hall of Fame’ for full gloating capability!

So, this is a call out to all balers in the UK; keep an eye on your bales, look for one of Tama’s  ‘Stars’ and simply follow the instructions you’ll find on that star, to receive a reward from Tama for a job well done.
