OUR PRODUCTS CAN’T BE ME-TOO MACHINES.
There are more than 60 for the U.S. alone, a similar number for Canada, and many more worldwide. Placed back to back to back, they make for a fairly impressive collection that tells a major part of the story of the progress of harvesting over the last 60 years. They are the patents of MacDon and they are, in many ways, the life-blood of the company.

THE TECHNOLOGY THAT THEY PUT INTO THESE MACHINES IS JUST INCREDIBLE. THE IN-CAB CONTROLS AND CONVENIENCE IS OUTSTANDING.
Murray Taks was skeptical. He did expect a modest improvement in productivity when he replaced his three windrowers with 20' headers with two brand new MacDon-built Westward M150 Self-Propelled Windrowers with 25' D60 headers, but he certainly was unconvinced of the claims MacDon was making.

THIS AWARD IS EVERY BIT AS SPECIAL AS OTHER AE50 AWARDS THAT MACDON HAS RECEIVED IN RECENT YEARS. ITS RECEIPT IS A RECOGNITION OF THE CREATIVITY AND ENERGY [OF] MACDON’S ENGINEERS.

ON AVERAGE, WE WERE RUNNING ROUGHLY 10 TO 10.5 MILES AN HOUR.
When Denver Pugh replaced five of his six auger windrowers with two M Series R80 Rotary Disc windrowers, he admits second-guessing himself a few times – especially when the weather heated up and a harvest that normally takes three to three-and-a-half weeks needed to be done much faster.
