One operator, one gear set
Owner-operated agricultural contracting across South Canterbury, built around strip tillage and precision planting.

Built around strip tillage
JMJS Contracting is James, working out of South Canterbury and covering the run from Albury through to Waimate. The gear is set up around strip tillage and precision planting, with a Case IH Puma 230 CVT out front pulling a Falc strip till and a Monosem planter, and a Kuhn TF1500 placing fert into the strip as it goes.
Being a one-operator outfit means the person you ring is the person who turns up, and the person who decides whether conditions are right to travel. If a paddock is too wet or the window has closed, you get told straight rather than finding out after the seed is in the ground.

- Gear that suits the countryMachinery chosen for South Canterbury contours and trash loads, from rolling downs to flat irrigated blocks.
- You get JamesNo rotating crew and no guessing who is coming. The same operator every time, who remembers what your paddocks did last year.
