The Quantum Plus plot combine has proven to be a superb machine for RiceTec Inc. in Alvin, Texas and Harrisburg, Arkansas.

 

Hybrid rice is an extremely abrasive crop and is tough on equipment, especially plot combines. Hayden Hambrick, technical services representative at RiceTec Mid-South says:

“The Quantum Plus has performed very well over three years of harvests with minimal problems. This machine is outstanding at harvesting, threshing, and processing the hybrid rice. One of the most impressive aspects of the machine is the quality of the samples that it provides from every plot—by far the cleanest samples that we have obtained in the field.”

 

The technical services team at RiceTec is more than satisfied with the performance of the Quantum Plus and is keen to continue working with WINTERSTEIGER machines in future.

“Reliable equipment is the key to success in our research and I have complete faith in the machines from WINTERSTEIGER. They work extremely well and the company offers outstanding customer service. I've really enjoyed working with WINTERSTEIGER in Tennessee and hope to continue working with them in the years ahead.”
