The Amazone team created a large-scale version of the company’s logo on a field near its Orchard Farm facility in Doncaster, using the Cirrus Grand pneumatic cultivator drill. 

Opico has expanded its product portfolio to include the Simtech range of direct drills. The line-up features a mix of specialist grassland seeders and more conventional arable machines, encompassing simple mechanical box drills as well as wider, more advanced pneumatic units.

Kuhn Farm Machinery has confirmed that two wider models of the manufacturer’s Megant tine drill have joined the single 6m model already in production.

Opico will showcase Alpego’s popular 6m DTEK power harrow combination drill paired with an ASPro front hopper.

A wide range of new kit will be on show on the Amazone stand, covering seeding, plant protection, precision planting and sustainable cultivation.

With margins under increasing pressure, direct drilling crops is rapidly becoming essential to allow farms to operate profitably, says Hobhole Farming in Lincolnshire.

Horsch has updated and expanded its ranges in the past 18 months, with advanced features not just reserved for the largest models.

With wetter planting windows the new norm, a change in machinery can be the difference between getting seed in the ground or not.

As regenerative agriculture and no-till farming continue to gain momentum, British farmers are looking for machinery that ticks many boxes: exceptional seed placement, versatility in variable weather conditions, promotion of optimal soil health, maximisation of efficiency and affordability. 

Despite the ongoing wet conditions across much of Britain in 2024/2025, farmers can overcome the challenging drilling situation with the right tools.

Monmouthshire contractor MRI Whistance has shared why he chose a Kverneland f-drill front tank with a Rotago F power harrow drill combination in search of improved flexibility and more output. 

Amazone explains how its range of drills can offer significant flexibility, from just a single drill.
