About West Willow Farms
Offering Custom and Contract Farm Operations
Westwillow Farms is an expert in seeding and harvesting operations and everything in between. It uses practical technologies to provide the landowner with a timely, high-quality, efficient process.
CUSTOM HARVESTING
Westwillow Farms operates four Claas Hybrid Rotary Combines along with trucks and support equipment to give efficient high-quality harvesting.
We operate several different and powerful Claas combine models, to give flexibility, as they are renowned for their ability to work in tough conditions. One of our models holds the wheat harvesting world record and another the corn harvesting world record.
Between the equipment and our experienced and dedicated operators, who care about your crop, we ensure there is throughput, along with minimal throw over, and a high-quality sample, compared with other combine brands, which may leave a lot of whitecaps and unthreshed grain.
We have a massive cleaning capacity, allowing us to have high production that is still clean without throwing over. We keep throwover in high consideration as we understand the production loss it causes.
We will always be the lowest-loss crew. We achieve this by high attentiveness to our machines as our skilled operators work and repair them.
We operate our Swath-Up Master. Pickup heads for swathed crops as well Claas 40-foot auger heads for straight cuttings in tough and tangled conditions and 45-foot Macdon flex heads for ground-hugging high-production operations.
We bring adequate trucks to handle most crops for short to medium-length hauls.
We work in wheat, barley, oats, canola, and soybeans, with all combines, and corn in one specially set up unit.
If you are worried about the upcoming weather and need to get your crop in the bin, give us a call. 306-209-2019
CONTRACT SEEDING AND HARVESTING
Taking farming and harvesting to the next level, Westwillow Farms is offering Contract Farming. Focusing on the pressure periods of farming (seeding and harvest) we contract with farmers in various climate regions to bring in the next level of efficient farming. With our belief in the need for farmers and rural households to keep our communities alive, we strive to bring services to compete with multinational corporations and investor groups who have efficiency of scale. As small farmers ourselves, we are personally familiar with the questions and struggles of productivity and have set out to solve them.
Our answer is contract services from Westwillow Farms. Let us handle the large equipment costs and spread it over acres, to let you focus on the many details it takes to farm and compete better.
These days, with the cost of seeding and harvesting equipment, the intense schedules, and the difficulty getting labor, it is time for farmers to start focusing on what they do best.
Westwillow Farms will put together the labor, equipment, and technologies, during the pressure periods, allowing you to put your attention toward other priorities such as weed control, land preparation, marketing, finance, and your family and community, making you more efficient and competitive.
We can bring practical technologies to the smaller farmers that only the big boys can afford.
We have our own mechanics, service technicians, service trucks, and specially selected equipment that we rebuild and upgrade to match our customer's needs. This keeps combining cost-effectiveness even for most small farmers.
We have a mix of large and small equipment to suit most farmers and allow us to be flexible and cost-effective.
Contract Farm Operations entails the farmer contracting with Westwillow Farms, to provide the seeding and harvesting services. We work with you to ensure these services are the most cost-effective possible. We will schedule equipment in various climatic zones to ensure the operation is timely.
The farmer guarantees acres and we guarantee service during the season at a price that they cannot do themselves.
