Kverneland lines up tillage, grass and crop care machinery for FTMTA
Kverneland Group Ireland will bring a broad selection of machinery to this year’s FTMTA Farm Machinery Show, with two of its higher-capacity crop care machines set to feature alongside equipment for tillage, seeding and grassland.
Among the larger machines on the Kverneland stand will be the latest iXtrack T4 trailed sprayer with a 5,300-litre tank, alongside the TL GEOSPREAD fertiliser spreader.
On the grass side, the FastBale will be among the stand highlights, the world’s only non-stop fixed-chamber baler-wrapper, while two of the newer additions to Kverneland’s grass machinery range, the Tactus twin-rotor rake and Tersus 4000 flail chopper, will also feature.
5300L iXtrack T4
The Kverneland iXtrack T4 will be one of the largest machines on the stand in many aspects, with the latest version now available with a larger 5,300-litre tank.
Aimed at operators looking to cover larger areas between fills, the T4 combines its increased tank capacity with Kverneland’s precision spraying technology.
The sprayer is designed with a focus on stability and boom performance in the field, while a range of control and application technologies are available depending on specification.
Joining the T4 will be the Kverneland TL GEOSPREAD, representing the higher-capacity end of Kverneland’s fertiliser spreader offering and bringing precision spreading technology to the crop care display.
Tillage and Seeding
Kverneland’s tillage and seeding ranges will also be represented at FTMTA, with a five-furrow ES reversible plough among the machines planned for the stand.
The plough will be joined by the 3m Enduro cultivator, covering stubble cultivation and seedbed preparation.
A 3m Saturia seed drill is also set to feature. The machine combines seedbed preparation and drilling in a single pass and will complete a line-up covering cultivation through to crop establishment.
Grass machinery: FastBale Premium and high-capacity mowing combination
Grass machinery will feature strongly at FTMTA, with the Kverneland FastBale Premium joined by a 3332F front mower and 5387 butterfly mower combination aimed at larger farmers and contractors.
The FastBale Premium combines baling and wrapping in a single machine. Its twin-chamber design allows continuous baling without stopping to discharge the completed bale, while the integrated wrapper wraps the completed bale as the next bale is being formed.
The 3332F front mower and 5387 butterfly mower will form one of the larger grass machinery combinations on display. The 5387 features Kverneland's QuattroLink suspension system, allowing the mowing units to follow ground contours independently while maintaining a consistent cutting performance.
Two of the newer additions to Kverneland's grass machinery range will also feature at the show.
The Tactus twin-rotor rake will be displayed outside in the parade ring. The range covers working widths from 6.4m to 7.8m across the 2072 and 2078 models and features Kverneland's TerraLink Plus ground contour-following system and DUO tine system.
The Tersus 4000 flail chopper will also feature, with the range available in three working widths from 2.35m to 3.25m and 500mm hydraulic side-shift fitted as standard.
Kverneland Group Ireland will also bring machinery from McConnel and SILOKING, which it imports and distributes in Ireland.
Two models from the McConnel Power Arm hedgecutter range are planned for the show, with the 6572 and 7782 set to feature along with the new Pioneer and Voyager controls.
The 6572 represents a familiar machine for Irish hedgecutting applications, while the larger 7782 will give visitors a look at a machine aimed at operators requiring greater reach and capacity.
A 20m³ SILOKING trailed feeder wagon will round out the display, representing the company’s range of feeding equipment for livestock farms.
Kverneland Group Ireland staff and product specialists will be on stand D22 in Hall D throughout the FTMTA Farm Machinery Show to discuss the machines and the different specifications available.
