TZ-3R TMR Silage Mixer Feeder Wagon Shipped to Nigeria’s Cattle Farm
In May 2026, Taizy shipped one TZ-3R TMR silage mixer feeder wagon to a medium-sized cattle farm in Kaduna State, Nigeria. The machine left the factory in early May, arrived at Lagos Port, and was delivered to the farm by truck within the same month.
The customer was feeding more than 300 cattle by hand. Four workers spent over four hours every morning mixing and carrying feed with wheelbarrows. Feed was uneven, cattle sorted out the tasty ingredients, and labor costs kept rising. After the self-propelled feed mixer entered service, the same feeding work takes about 40 minutes with one operator. Feed waste dropped, ration quality became consistent, and the farm placed a second order for spare parts six months later. That repeat order is the strongest proof that the machine is working well.
Фон проекту
The customer is a family-run cattle farm in Kaduna State, northern Nigeria. The region is one of the country’s main cattle-raising areas, with a long tradition of mixed crop and livestock farming.
The farm keeps over 300 head of cattle, including a growing dairy group. Feed ingredients are typical for the region: maize stover, elephant grass, dry hay, and purchased concentrates such as wheat bran and cottonseed cake. The farm has its own silage storage but no tractor-pulled mixing equipment. Grid power in the area is unstable, which makes electric machinery a risky investment without backup power.
What Did the Nigeria Cattle Farm Need from a TMR Silage Mixer Feeder Wagon?
The farm manager contacted Taizy with three clear requirements.
First, cut labor cost. Manual feeding required four workers every morning. Wages were rising, and finding reliable workers during planting and harvest seasons was difficult.
Second, handle local feed materials. The ration includes long maize stover and elephant grass. The machine must chop and blend these fibrous materials uniformly, not just stir them.
Third, work without stable electricity. Power cuts are common in the area. The farm needed a machine that could run every day regardless of the grid.
What TMR Mixing Solution Did Taizy Provide?
After reviewing the herd size, feed types, and farm layout, Taizy recommended the TZ-3R TMR silage mixer feeder wagon, a diesel-powered 3 m³ model with hydraulic loading.
This silage mixer wagon matches the farm’s needs in three ways. The 32 hp diesel engine runs independently of the grid, so feeding never waits for electricity. The vertical auger with five triangular blades cuts long stover and elephant grass into short, digestible pieces. The four load cells weigh each ingredient during loading, so the dairy group gets the exact ration formulated by the farm’s nutrition advisor.
The compact three-wheel chassis was another deciding factor. Farm buildings at the site were built close together, and a tractor-pulled mixer could not pass through the narrow alleys. The self-propelled design fits the existing layout with no construction work.
