Emil Gulbranson, originator and manufacturer of the Maximizer bale dryer, sold the first U.S. unit to Cook Farms in eastern Idaho for use in the 2018 hay season. A Canadian hay producer himself, Gulbranson took a heavy hit during a wet hay season and knew there had to be a better way. His better way became a 90-foot-long unit that generates temperatures 100 degrees above ambient temperature and injects the heated air directly into six large bales at a time.
