Cetinkayalar Straw Choppers: Turning Stubble into Profit

Cetinkayalar Agriculture is the biggest supporter of the livestock sector with its professional Straw Choppers (Stubble Collectors) that convert crop residues left in the field after harvest into valuable animal feed. Leveraging our manufacturing experience since 1970, our machines process stalks left by combine harvesters or dried forage crops into high-quality straw while preserving their nutritional value.

Straw Making Machine Models for Your Needs

We offer 3 main models tailored to different farming needs, all delivering a processing capacity of 2200 kg (2 Tons) per hour.

1. Automatic Stem Collecting Series (NCK-03 SM)

Known as the "Combine Harvester Rear" collector, this series automatically picks up swaths or scattered stalks from the field using a 1800 mm wide pickup unit.

• Standard System: Collects, chops, and loads Wheat, Barley, Oat, Maize, and Soybean stalks into a trailer. It eliminates manual labor and saves time.

• Knife (Chopper) System: In addition to the standard features, this model is equipped with 54 special blades in the drum. It creates "Fine Chop" straw by cutting the fibers rather than just crushing them. Ideal for producing soft, easily digestible straw for livestock.

2. Alfalfa & Forage Chopper NCK-06 OM (Forage Thresher)

Unlike the automatic collector, this model features a Feeding Hopper. It is designed primarily for harvested and dried Alfalfa, Vetch, Hay, and Meadow Grass.

• Usage: The crop is manually fed into the 1200 mm wide hopper. Its precise drum system converts alfalfa into straw without losing the nutrient-rich leaves, preserving protein content. Also known as a "Stationary Forage Chopper."

Çetinkayalar Straw Chopper Manufacturing

Çetinkayalar Agriculture manufactures straw chopper models suited to different needs in order to make use of the stalks and plant residues left in the field after harvest. Developed with production experience dating back to 1970, our machines combine stalk collecting, chopping and loading onto the trailer in a single working cycle, offering practical solutions for livestock farms.

The NCK-03 SM and NCK-06 OM series are designed for different crops and working conditions. Models that blow the straw directly into the trailer with a fan system largely eliminate the need for a separate straw blower or straw loading machine.

Is a Straw Baler the Same as a Straw Chopper?

Farms researching straw baler prices should keep in mind that a baler only compresses straw that is already prepared. The stalks in the field must first be collected and turned into straw, and this is the job of the straw chopper. For this reason, evaluating straw baler prices together with straw chopper prices helps you calculate the total cost of straw preparation correctly. For how a baler works, see our article how does a hay baler machine work.

❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

1. What is the difference between the Knife System and the Standard Model?

The standard model crushes the stalks to make regular straw. The Knife System (NCK-03) cuts and slices the stalks into fibers. The result is "fine chop" straw that is soft like cotton. This is more appetizing for animals and easier to digest, positively impacting meat and milk yields.

2. Can the NCK-03 SM collect maize (corn) stalks?

Yes. Especially our Knife System model is very effective in shredding hard-structured maize and soybean stalks. Its powerful drum structure turns maize stalks into straw without clogging.

3. Which machine do you recommend for Alfalfa?

If you want to automatically collect alfalfa from the field, choose the NCK-03 SM. However, if you prefer to process dried alfalfa by manual feeding for better control over leaf loss, the NCK-06 OM (Alfalfa & Forage Chopper) is the ideal stationary solution.

4. Are a straw making machine and a straw chopper the same?

Yes. “Straw making machine” is another name for the straw chopper that collects the stalks left in the field and chops them into straw. Çetinkayalar NCK-03 SM models do this with an automatic stalk collecting system.

5. What do straw baler prices depend on?

Straw baler prices vary according to bale type, capacity, tying system and tractor compatibility. Since a baler only compresses ready straw, the cost of the straw chopper that produces the straw should also be evaluated separately.
