The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 3 awarded a purchase order to Minnesota AG Power Inc. (doing business as Midwest Machinery Co.) on August 20, 2026, for one rear-mounted offset flail mower with 155 cm working width and one with 225 cm working width, at a ceiling value of $49,371.33. The solicitation carried a Women-Owned Small Business set-aside but the awardee did not qualify under that designation. Delivery is required to Trempealeau National Wildlife Refuge in Trempealeau, Wisconsin and Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge in Carver, Minnesota by November 30, 2026. The mowers must be equipped with Category 2 rear 3-point linkage, 540 rpm PTO with freewheel clutch, dual hydraulic circuits, triple helical flail rotors, hydraulic side-shift capability, and anti-shock safety breakaway systems, compatible respectively with John Deere 6M 125 and John Deere 4066R/4075R tractors or equivalents. The vendor must provide complete installation, pre-delivery inspection, mounting, PTO shaft installation, hydraulic connection and testing, and operator orientation, with a service dealer within 40 miles maintaining parts availability within 48 hours.
