[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In the heart of Mpumalanga, just outside Lydenburg on the farm Enkeldoorn, the AGCO power engine of the Massey Ferguson 7620 rumbles. It is the most recent addition to Jaco Coetser’s farm, but before that there were many other MF tractors that tread deep footprints on his farm.<\/p>\n

\"Jaco

Jaco Coetser.<\/p><\/div>\n

Jaco was born and raised in the Badfontein area where his father and grandfather farmed. \u201cI grew up with the MF 188 and the 290s in those years,\u201d he recalls. \u201cWe had a bunch of them on the farm. At that stage we drew three-shear ploughs with them.\u201d<\/p>\n

When the Braam Raubenheimer Dam (today the Kw\u00eana dam) was built in the early 1980s, the government bought out a piece of the farm in Badfontein and then Jaco’s grandfather, Giel, bought Enkeldoorn. His grandfather died in 1996, and his father in 1997, and that’s how the farm ended up in his hands.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe farm has changed a lot since I took over from my grandfather,\u201d Jaco explains. \u201cWhen I took over it was mostly dry land cultivation and cattle. Since then, I added irrigation for wheat in the winter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lydenburg’s surroundings are very mountainous, and this means that farmers often have multiple small fields to cultivate. \u201cWe don’t have large fields like the Free State, so we have small fields where the smaller tractors fit better.\u201d<\/p>\n

In that district there are also mainly smaller farmers who cultivate around 200 to 300 hectares. However, Jaco is blessed to farm on almost 1000 hectares.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Read the Afrikaans Version” style=”custom” custom_background=”#c71121″ custom_text=”#ffffff” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fmyagcoafrica.com%2Fpr%2F2024%2F04%2F04%2Fsaam-vir-die-lange-duur%2F|title:S%C3%A0%C3%A0m%20vir%20die%20lange%20duur%3A%20Massey%20Ferguson%20en%20die%20boer|target:_blank”][vc_raw_html]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[\/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Massey Ferguson from then to now<\/h2>\n

\u201cWhen I arrived on the farm in 1997, I inherited an MF 2720 along with a reliable MF188 and so from there we upgraded. First from the MF 650, then the MF 680 and later the MF 6495. Now we are moving to the 7700 series. The little ones must have bought the big ones,\u201d he smiles.<\/p>\n

\"Pulling,

Pulling, plowing and planting, the MF 7620 works hard and faithfully on Enkeldorn.<\/p><\/div>\n

Jaco tells that the small tractors are very practical in his area. \u201cYou can use it to drive around the farm, feed the cattle and pull a baler. We mostly use the big tractors for soil preparation and to pull the no-till planters.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are several reasons why Jaco still relies on the Massey Ferguson Brand for so many years. \u201cFirst of all, the diesel consumption is very good, especially on the bigger tractors.\u201d he says. \u201cThen, the technology that the manufacturer adds to their equipment, and finally the reliability of the machines.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe large models on the farm are particularly reliable \u2013 there are no problems. My down time is very short.\u201d<\/p>\n

Large footprints on Enkeldoorn with Lybasol<\/h2>\n

Every tractor on Jaco’s farm was bought from the Massey Ferguson dealership, Lybasol, in Lydenburg.<\/p>\n

\"Over

Over the years, many tractors have been added to the Coetser farm – all Massey Fergusons. On the left stands the MF 650, and on the right the MF 6495 shows off.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cMy grandfather apparently bought the MF 188 from the dealer in town between 1978 and 1981. It has already worked hard, drawing the three-shear ploughs, but now it mainly draws the feed mixer and the slasher.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Jaco, his relationship with the dealer is more like family. \u201cI remember being there as a child with my grandfather and father and I actually grew up in the back of the store rooms and between the Lybasol shelves. Francois Potgieter is with me about two to three times a week to drink a coffee and look at the tractors.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you buy a Massey Ferguson from Lybasol, you get reliability, good service and they are on the farm often \u2013 they actually visit too often!\u201d he teases.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can just pick up the phone anytime and receive help, even if it’s after hours. They unlock the doors, get the parts and bring them to you. It’s great to have them as a dealer,\u201d Jaco emphasizes.<\/p>\n

At your service for over 60 years<\/h2>\n

Francois is the managing director at Lybasol. He has been walking this path with the Coetser family for many years. \u201cI, myself, saw how uncle Giel ploughed with the three-shear ploughs with the MF 188 and then later the MF 290s. I saw how a Massey Ferguson helped to tame this farm as well as some of the other lands they also have, establishing themselves and moving forward to finally make Jaco the successful farmer he is today,\u201d Francois testifies.<\/p>\n

\"Just

Just like family. Francois Potgieter, managing director of Lybasol, regularly stops by Enkeldoorn to visit Jaco Coetser and his tractors.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cMy feeling is that MF set up and established farming in South Africa,\u201d he reckons. \u201cIt gave me an opportunity to build my business, take care of my family and for that I am eternally grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lybasol acquired Massey Ferguson dealership during the early sixties. This makes them one of the oldest MF dealers in South Africa.<\/p>\n

Francois shares his opinion about the dealer’s approach to service. \u201cLook, Lybasol tries not to always be the cheapest, because that’s not possible. However, our strength all these years has been our spares and service.\u201d He further confesses that his approach may be unconventional. \u201cActually, from a business point of view, we keep too many parts. But we like that we can give a farmer who walks in here whatever he needs. Should we not have something available for one reason or another, we will get our hands on it as soon as possible.\u201d: This is the strong point on which Lybasol have concentrated over the years. \u201cWe know that farming must be able to be kept going,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n

Jaco says the following about the brand: \u201cI think MF will always be on the farm. They bring out new technology and developments every year. Massey Ferguson is at the forefront of technology, and I think my son, Jerrie, will also continue with Massey Fergusons on the farm,\u201d he dreams about the future.<\/p>\n
