Set your pastures up for a strong start to the next season with Masktek & Bergmann Spreaders
As Autumn rolls in across NZ, Webbline is helping farmers and contractors take spreading to the next level with two proven solutions: German-Made Bergmann spreaders for solid materials and Mastek umbilical systems for efficient effluent distribution. Whether feeding paddocks with manure, compost, lime, or effluent, timing and technique make all the difference. Applying nutrients in autumn also gives them time to break down and become available ahead of spring growth, setting your pastures up for a strong start to the new season.Whether managing your own operation or contracting across multiple farms, Bergmann & Mastek systems help you work faster, smarter, and more sustainably.
Bergmann TSW Manure Spreaders – Reliable & Precise
Built tough for New Zealand conditions, the Bergmann TSW range offers the reliability, reach, and precision contractors and farmers need. Designed to offer high performance and payload, maximum power for a wide spreading width, and operator comfort. Bergmann TSW manure spreaders are built to deliver high performance, large payload capacity, wide spreading widths, and operator comfort. They can precisely apply compost, organic sludge, lime, and all types of livestock manure over large areas with minimal environmental impact. That’s where the Bergmann TSW range stands out. Available nationwide through Webbline Agriculture, these German-engineered spreaders are designed for tough New Zealand conditions, offering the reliability, reach, and precision that both contractors and farmers need. Autumn’s cooler temperatures and improved soil moisture make it the ideal time for nutrient application—ensuring that what you spread now is absorbed effectively and stays where it’s needed most.Why use a Bergmann TSW Spreader?
-
- Precision spreading up to 36m with optional V-Spread system
-
- High-strength build with low-maintenance auto-tensioning chains
-
- Wide, low-pressure tyres reduce soil compaction and pasture damage
-
- Adjustable drawbar and suspension for smoother towing
-
- Flexible setup options to suit different materials and farm conditions
Ready to get started? Here’s some smart spreading tips from the team:
-
- Choose drier days (when you can!) to minimise soil damage
-
- Always match your spreader set-up to the material
-
- Keep a steady pace and monitor tyre pressure to ensure consistent application
-
- Remember to check any local compliance rules and always stay clear of waterways and boundaries
Mastek Umbilical Cord Systems for Liquid Nutrient Management
Mastek umbilical systems are built for efficient, high-volume effluent application with minimal impact on the land. Designed specifically for liquid nutrient management, they pump directly from storage ponds to paddocks—even over several kilometres—eliminating the need for heavy tankers and reducing wear on tracks and pasture. That’s where the Mastek system stands out. Purpose-built in Ireland and proven across Europe, these systems are now available nationwide through Webbline Agriculture, offering Kiwi farmers a smarter, more sustainable way to manage effluent. With accurate placement, reduced odour, and built-in compliance features, Mastek helps you get the most from your effluent—right when your pasture needs it.Why choose Mastek Umbilical System for your farm?
-
- High-volume output – Spread up to 1 million litres per day for fast, efficient coverage.
-
- Lower impact – 12T vs 32T load reduces soil compaction, pasture damage, and gateway wear
-
- Long-distance pumping – Delivers effluent several kilometres from the pond to the paddock.
-
- Precise application – Controlled spreading reduces odour, runoff, and nutrient loss.
-
- Regulatory ready – automatic spread tracking for compliance and proof of placement
-
- Environmentally smart – Supports compliance with accurate placement and record-keeping.
Ready to get started? Here’s some quick tips from the team.
-
- Give the pond a good stir before spreading to keep things flowing smoothly.y your hose in a straight, tidy path to prevent tangles or pressure loss.
-
- Drive at a steady pace to get even coverage across the paddock.
-
- Keep a safe distance from waterways to protect the environment and stay compliant.
-
- Do a quick gear check before each job to avoid downtime and keep things running sweet.
What’s the difference between a Mastek umbilical system and a Bergmann muck spreader?
The key difference comes down to what you’re spreading and how. A Mastek umbilical system is designed for liquid effluent. It pumps directly from your storage pond to the paddock via a flexible hose—no need for heavy tankers on your pasture. It’s highly mobile, low-impact, and capable of spreading up to 1 million litres a day. Ideal for regular, targeted applications. A Bergmann muck spreader, on the other hand, is built for solid materials like manure, compost, lime, and sludge. It carries up to 24 tonnes, spreads evenly over a wide area, and is perfect for seasonal applications when you’re looking to deliver a heavier nutrient load with precision.Can I use both systems on the same farm?Can I use both systems on the same farm?
Absolutely. In fact, they complement each other perfectly. Use the Mastek system for regular effluent spreading—keeping nutrients flowing and soil fed without damaging pasture. Use the Bergmann spreader for solid organic materials—restoring soil structure and fertility with planned, high-volume applications. Together, they help you manage both liquid and solid waste efficiently, reduce environmental impact, and boost productivity across the season.“Whether you’re managing your own operation or contracting across multiple farms, Bergmann and Mastek systems help you work faster, smarter, and more sustainably“
