Announcing Our #BlaneyCommunity Forager X10 Campaign Winner: Roberta

December 18, 2024

At Blaney Agri, we were truly moved by the heartfelt nominations for our #BlaneyCommunity Forager X10 Campaign. From hardworking families to older generations still tirelessly running farms, each story reflected the resilience and dedication at the heart of farming life. After much consideration, we’re delighted to announce Roberta Mullen as the winner!

Roberta’s Story

Roberta manages a busy hill farm while raising three young boys. Her day-to-day workload includes:
• A suckler herd of 60 cows
• 100 sheep
• Running a livery yard

With her husband working full-time off-farm, Roberta shoulders much of the work herself. Feeding silage along the sheds is one of the most physically demanding and time-consuming tasks – especially on a hill farm, where getting silage evenly distributed is key to reducing waste and improving livestock health. With rising feed costs this year, we know the Forager X10 will make a real difference:

• Saving her valuable time during feeding.
• Reducing physical strain with its hands-off operation.
• Ensuring better silage efficiency for her herd.

Why Roberta Was Chosen

Roberta’s story reflects the incredible work ethic and determination seen across farming families. Her ability to balance the demands of farm life, family life, and challenging conditions is truly inspiring. We’re excited to see the Forager X10 helping Roberta and her farm this winter – making feeding easier, faster, and less back-breaking!

What’s Next?

Roberta will collect the Forager X10 soon, and we’ll be documenting her journey with photos, videos, and updates over the coming weeks. Stay tuned to hear how the Forager X10 makes a difference for her farm.

We’d like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who submitted a nomination. Each story reminded us of the incredible dedication within the farming community, and we’re proud to celebrate you all.

Thank you for being part of the #BlaneyCommunity – where we celebrate the hardworking people who keep farming alive.
