Part of the Carrier concept

The Carrier is used for high-speed primary tillage and seedbed preparation. The wide range of front tools, discs and packers enables the Carrier to handle the various challenges of modern farming – from ultra-shallow tillage to deeper incorporation. The versatility it brings to the farm saves passes, decreases machine cost per acre and provides the best start possible for the coming crop.
