Best Tractor Implements for Firebreaks in WA

The Bushfires Act (1954) requires all Western Australian landowners and occupiers to set up and maintain adequate firebreaks, which help prevent and minimise the spread of wildfire. Firebreak requirements differ between local councils and depend on the scale of the property.

Methods to create firebreaks

  • Ploughing down to mineral earth
  • Mowing or slashing vegetation over the firebreak
  • Wipper snipper or brush cutting
  • Burning (this must be done as per the provisions outlined within the Bushfires Act)

Firebreak tractor implements

Below are essential tractor implements for fire prevention.

Tractor Slashers

A tractor slasher can cut down and clear tall grasslands, weeds and undergrowth that serve as a fire tinderbox. AgKing stocks 4ft, 5ft and 6ft tractor slashers.

Tractor Scrapers

A tractor scraper can make or maintain firebreaks by removing materials, such as leaf litter and small debris, which will ignite in a fire and provide additional fuel. AgKing sells 5ft and 6ft tractor scraper blades.

Tractor Stick Rakes

A tractor stick rake clears debris and levels land, making it easier to come in and plough. It’s ideal for removing small trees, scrub, storm debris, rocks, etc.

Best Tractor Implements for Feeding Livestock During Summer

Western Australian farmers work hard to keep their livestock fed and watered. Summer can be an especially unforgiving time of year, with water supplies and feed levels low to often non-existent. Distributing silage and mineral salt blocks can help some animals get through lean times.

Tractor Carry-alls

A tractor carry-all is a versatile implement designed to carry all manner of goods and materials, such as mineral salt blocks. AgKing sells 5ft and 6ft tractor carry-alls.

Tractor Bale Grabs

A tractor bale grab makes light work of laborious tasks, such as distributing silage across paddocks.

Best Tractor Implements for Weed Control

A boom sprayer applies the necessary herbicides, pesticides, or fertilizers your farm needs to keep weeds, insects and disease at bay. AgKing sells 400-litre boom sprayers.

Best Tractor Implements for Fertilizer Spreader

Keep feeding those crops with purpose-built fertilizer spreaders that evenly distribute and deliver consistent coverage.
