The award, Machine of the Year 2018, is handed out from a jury of European agricultural journalists. At the official ceremony at Agritechnica, Väderstads Chairman Crister Stark accepted the award.
- At Väderstad, we are very proud and glad that CrossCutter Disc is awarded as Machine of the Year 2018. Equipping CrossCutter Disc on the disc cultivator Väderstad Carrier gives a very intensive ultra-shallow tillage, providing great agronomic benefits to the farm, says Crister Stark, Chairman of the Board at Väderstad.
Ultra-shallow tillage
The unique CrossCutter Disc is intended for intensive ultra-shallow tillage at 2-3cm working depth. Because of its disc shape and high quality Swedish steel, CrossCutter Disc provides a full cut-out and intensive mixing at ultra-shallow working depth.
- CrossCutter Disc performs outstanding in oilseed rape stubble and in cover crops, while also enabling great advantages in grain stubble as well as on cultivated land, says Mattias Hovnert, Sales & Marketing Director at Väderstad, and continues:
- CrossCutter Disc works very intensively with a low horsepower requirement, at shallow working depth and high speed up to 20km/h.
Väderstad CrossCutter Disc was presented as the winner for Machine of the Year 2018 at the official award ceremony at Agritechnica on November 14th.
