Crop Harvesting Mowing and Treatment of Hay

Abstract:

The Corona pandemic also faced agricultural machinery companies of forage technology with major challenges. After good business prospects at the beginning of the year, the increasing spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus led to restrictions and production stops. Nevertheless, the sales volumes declined only slightly and the companies presented a number of further and new developments. The agricultural machinery manufacturer Krone, for example, was expanding its product portfolio to include the “Highland“ series, under which implements for use in alpine conditions are marketed. In landscape maintenance, the trend towards remote-controlled mowers is continuing. In the field of science and research, work was presented on innovative straw management with the “Kombi-Mulcher“, as well as on efficiency during grassland mowing.
