Less Lameness, Full Cover – Kura on Rotary Platform
Joe Foster runs a 60-bail rotary platform at Okaihau in Northland. The platform is now fully covered in Kura — NumatAGRI’s 25mm German-made rubber mat with a 20-year lifespan.
Every mat was custom-cut to fit the platform precisely. No gaps. No filler pieces. A surface that works as one unit from bail to bail.
Joe is no newcomer to NumatAGRI rubber. He has already put Kura through his yard — and been happy enough with it to come back and do the platform. That is the pattern you see with farmers who know their numbers. Once they see what good rubber does for lameness, they keep going.
“Very happy with all Numat products. Big fans. Loving the reduction of lameness.”
— Joe Foster, Okaihau
Getting a clean fit across a 60-bail platform takes more than a knife and a tape measure. NumatAGRI’s waterjet CNC cutting brings the precision needed to make every mat seat flush, interlock cleanly, and stay put.
