Kemper 460

Kemper 460

Kemper has launched a new header 6 metres.

The model is new with a bigger cut drum. It looks to me very similar to CLAAS ORBIS.

We have not sold anyone yet so I can not speak about it. I hope to check these days the technical info to get an opinion about it.

Prices and delivery on request as always. Large orders could have a nice price.

Selling farm machinery at Russia and Ukraine

After contacting a lot of customers, we are going to plan a bussiness travel to Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. It is a hard work we need to do if we want to grown up in the global market.

East Europe and the old URSS are now the promised land. Thounsand and thousand combines are been sold there every year. So, why not go there to check it how are now that countries?

It would be interesting to check the market and study the possibilities of create an enterprise there or get a good parner for sell the machinery (this would be perfect).

Kazakhstan is a rising economy, perfect for  selling farm machinery and used cars/vans/trucks.

As always, it is better to see all with your eyes and think about.

do you want to come?

Harvesting TEF (Eragrostis TEF)

Yesterday we were working on a experimental land with TEF.

The Spanish goverment is trying to plant TEF (eragrostis TEF) a african crop, original from Ethiopia.

The problem is the small small seed to harvest.

The crop was not dry enought but the autum rains is coming so it was necessary to harvest it as soon as possible.

We Took off the air Belt for the moment but CLAAS will send a special KIT for LEXION to stop the air engine, without ring the bell in the cab.

interesting crop, with no GLUTEN and a lot of oligoelements.

the straw can be used as a high quality forage. It can be ensiled or dryed to be packed..

We were harvesting it with a lexion 530. pictures are on the way… come later… now it work time

The CLAAS Lexion 580 is the new world champion combine harvesting

It was the New Holland CR9090 Elevation, as you can see in the videos section, but now, the Harsenwinkel guys make it again, with the certification by the Guinness Book of Records.

The farmer, Keith Challen, has harvested 532 tons of wheat in 8 hours, which is a 18 percent more than the old record.

Due the bad british summer, at last, on 16th September, the sky was clear and Challen was able to harvest.

The Combine Lexion 580 was fitted with high technology, such as GPS steering and a cut blade of 10.5 metres.
