Bish Enterprises, Giltner, Nebraska, a leader in agricultural innovation, recently announced the launch of its newly redesigned FiberCut, now featuring a 14-foot cutting knife—the longest available in its category.
The Bish FiberCut is a multi-tier sickle mower engineered for high-efficiency harvesting of hemp, kenaf, and other tall biomass crops. Engineered for strength, speed, and adaptability, the new FiberCut enables farmers to harvest more acres in less time while reducing fuel and labor costs.
The 2025 FiberCut delivers field-proven performance at speeds of 8 and 10 miles per hour, with significantly improved efficiency over prior models. At 10 mph, the FiberCut harvests approximately 16.99 acres per hour, and at 8 mph, it cuts 13.59 acres per hour. Over an 800-acre harvest when compared to competing products, these gains translate into time savings of:
- 24.85 hours at 10 mph
- 19.02 hours at 8 mph
“This is not just a refinement — it’s a transformation,” said Andrew Bish, chief operating officer of Bish Enterprises. “We listened to farmers. They need stronger, smarter tools that maximize efficiency and lower operational costs. The new FiberCut reflects that commitment.”
In addition to its expanded cutting capability, the FiberCut is now approximately 4,000 pounds lighter than earlier versions—down from nearly 18,000 to 14,000 pounds. This lighter build improves transport, expands tractor compatibility, and helps conserve fuel. The FiberCut also features:
- Modular arms in 6-, 8-, 10-, 12-, or 14-foot lengths
- Forward-folding configuration for safer road transport
- Hydraulic operation requiring less horsepower
- Cutting range as low as 3 inches for precise control
- Compatibility with multiple categories of 3-point hitches
Designed with farmers in mind, the FiberCut uses widely available components, supported by Bish Enterprises’ 12-month warranty on major systems including the frame, hydraulics, and planetary drives.
