Bogue Dairy Farm has been using McAree feed bins for over 30 years and is currently using ten V-Mac silos on his pig farms. So, it is no surprise that they opted to purchase a McAree bin for their new Greenfield site.
No Title
Since we installed the McAree silo, we never had to look at it. We clean it out every so often, and the 6” side spout at the bottom of the cone is very handy for filing a meal barrow if we want to feed other stock.
No Title
We have dealing with McAree Since we build our new unit in 2018. We were very happy with the quality and structure of their bins, also their customer service and delivery were excellent.
