Horsch has updated its cultivators, drills and sprayers for Agritechnica 2025, aiming to boost efficiency while keeping things simple and precise.
Farmers are facing shorter weather windows, pushing the move towards bigger, more efficient machines. Horsch says the investment in larger kit pays back through higher productivity, a lesson learned on its own farms. Digitalisation is also a growing focus with the company rolling out a new generation of hardware and software to take machine performance well beyond basic operations.
Shallow cultivation
A new 12m Cruiser 12 XL joins the 7 XL and 9 XL, providing high-capacity stubble cultivation with even straw distribution and precise depth control, thanks to FlexGrip tines. The Joker HD now comes with a new folding system and frame for easier handling. A trailed Finer XL spring tine cultivator also makes its debut, offering the same versatility as the mounted SL model.
Deep cultivation
The Fortis 8 AS brings 8.27m working width and 30cm working depth for tractors up to 700hp, using the proven TerraGrip tine system.
The Fortis LT range is extended with four new compact models for tractors up to 500hp.
At the smaller end, the new Tiger 3 SL offers the mixing intensity of the Tiger series in a more manoeuvrable 3m mounted version for tractors around 250hp.
