Reinforcing its policy to collaborate with suppliers, Anglia Farmers has developed a mutually beneficial arrangement with JCB for sales of the Teletruk - a combined counterbalance forklift and telehandler.

With telescopic boom and the ability to change attachments - including a rotational grab – the Teletruk is particularly handy on the farm. It is ideal for potato handling, loading and unloading vehicles from one side, reaching in and out of containers and with 4x4 capability will go over rough terrain.

Members have already started trialling the Teletruk including farm manager Jamie Lockhart at Ian Alston’s farm in Honingham, Norfolk.

“We do have similar machines but they don’t achieve quite as much as the Teletruk,” said Jamie. “Although we’ve only had this demo machine for a few days, I can already see how versatile it is. The special arrangement with Anglia Farmers makes it even more attractive.”
