What is Case IH Forage and Livestock Equipment: Powering Productivity on Animal Farms

While much of the spotlight in modern agriculture shines on crop production, livestock and dairy farms play an equally important role in feeding the world. To keep animals healthy and productive, forage quality must be top-notch—and the right equipment can make all the difference. That’s why more livestock farmers rely on Case IH for reliable, high-performance balers, hay tools, and feeding equipment tailored to animal agriculture.

With equipment engineered for high output, durable design, and ease of use, plus access to more than 100,767 genuine Case IH spare parts, the brand is a leading name in efficient forage management and livestock care.

 

 

Meeting the Demands of Livestock Farming

Livestock farms operate on tight schedules and high daily demands. Cattle, sheep, goats, and other animals need regular feeding with nutrient-rich forage and bedding materials. Case IH helps ensure that farmers can:

  • Cut, dry, and store hay quickly and safely

  • Produce dense, uniform bales for easy handling

  • Optimize feed quality and storage

  • Reduce labor, fuel, and waste

With tools that handle tough terrain and long hours, Case IH machines are designed with livestock operations in mind.

 

 

Case IH Balers: Round and Square Excellence

Balers are essential for preserving forage, creating bedding, and preparing feed. Case IH balers are trusted for their reliability, performance, and ability to produce bales that are easy to store, move, and use.

Key Baler Options:

  • RB Series Round Balers – Great for hay, silage, and straw with variable and fixed chamber options.

  • LB Series Large Square Balers – Ideal for high-capacity operations with dense, uniform bale formation.

Features That Matter:

  • Moisture sensors for optimum bale quality

  • Bale shape indicators to ensure consistent output

  • Twine and net wrap systems for secure binding

  • ISOBUS compatibility for in-cab monitoring and control

These balers are designed for all crop types and conditions, whether dry hay, high-moisture silage, or straw bedding.

 

 

Hay and Forage Tools for Every Step

Baling is just one part of the forage process. Case IH provides a complete range of hay tools that support mowing, conditioning, raking, and tedding—all of which play a role in preserving forage nutrition.

Tools Include:

  • Disc Mowers – Clean, efficient cuts even in tough or wet fields

  • Mower Conditioners – Accelerate drying with flail or roller conditioners

  • Rakes and Tedders – Ensure even drying and windrow formation for efficient baling

Using these tools properly reduces leaf loss, improves bale nutrition, and prevents mold and spoilage in storage.

 

 

Livestock Farm Tractors: Built to Handle It All

In addition to baling and hay tools, Case IH tractors are crucial for feeding, hauling, spreading, and other daily chores around livestock farms. The Farmall® Series, in particular, is a favorite among animal farmers.

Why Farmall® Tractors Work for Livestock:

  • Compact sizes for easy barn and feedlot access
