Loddon agribusiness Bridgewater Farmware is stocking Davey firefighting pumps as the fire season officially starts across the region.
Farmers have been urged to take all precautions during harvest and to ensure that have suitable firefighting equipment close as hand.
There have again been a number of fires in the Loddon this week as warm weather arrives.
Dave Edwards at Bridgewater Farmware is encouraging farms to check their equipment and upgrade with Davey pumps.
Pumps in the Davey range include the Davey Remote Start Firefighter® "our intelligent remote start Firefighter, offering security and peace-of-mind, to eliminate travel to a remotely located pump. Activated by SMS, the Remote Start Firefighter provides options to start and stop manually, automatically on a timer, or remotely via an SMS service. The pump can be controlled using input sensors connected to it, for example - if using float sensor, the pump starts or stops when the tank water level is low or high respectively. Other inputs that might turn the pump off are manual start/stop, loss of prime, or a pressure switch."
