Starting a new season — with new machinery

Anticipating the sowing season, farming enterprises of KDV-Group in Oryol oblast are preparing to break in the new machinery supplied by Oryol office of AgroCentreLiski.

The dispatch of the Massey Ferguson 7622 tractors to the customers is over. In strict accordance with the agreement for machinery supply concluded as early as in November 2017, 14 new high-tech tractors have already reached their owners.

‘The Massey Ferguson 7622 model is notorious for its quality of built and suitability for a wide range of applications’, says Evgeniy Akkudinov, Head of Oryol office of AgroCentreLiski.

Additionally, special options — first and foremost an air compressor and a pneumatic brake for coupling to trailers — were ordered and installed onto the tractors.

‘The tractors can be coupled to chaser bins, enabling growers to handle sugar beets, for example. This way, the tractors will be useful both throughout the season and into autumn, which is great’, continues Evgeniy Akkudinov.

The MONOPILL 12 SE sugar beet planters from Kverneland, a leading global farm equipment manufacturer, are being prepared for delivery. As many as 15 units have already arrived into Oryol oblast for KDV-Group. These farm tools are compatible with the Trimble high-precision auto-steer system which is installed onto Massey Ferguson tractors.

‘A computerised MONOPILL planter is the guarantee of a rich sugar beet crop’, believes Evgeniy Akkudinov. ‘Each sowing unit is equipped with an electric drive and all operating parameters are right there at the display of the MF tractor.’
