“ABA “Astra” equipment demonstration at UCAB Agrotechnologies 2019

On August 14, 2019, a long-awaited event took place in the village of Velyka Oleksandrivka, Kyiv region  – UCAB Agrotechnologies. As members of the Ukrainian Agribusiness Club, we took part in this large-scale event and presented our equipment to guests, both static and at work.

Our stand featured 2019’s two most talked-about new arrivals: the Fendt Ideal combine and the new-generation Fendt 900 tractor!

The Fendt Ideal combine – means your maximum performance, including off the field. It’s  fitted with the unique Helix threshing and separation system and a rotor with an unprecedented market length of 4.85 m and a diameter of 600 mm, which increases throughput, speed and threshing quality for crops. On top of that, the combine is fitted with the Ideal Balance and Ideal Harvest systems, patented by the AGCO corporation. And the combine’s sleek black design drew every guest’s attention.

Our other new arrival, the new-generation Fendt 900 tractor, was also presented at the event. Machines in the 900 series, which have earned a reputation as universal high-power tractors, can boast a broad range of applications. Designed first and foremost for heavy draft work or work using the power take-off, they’re equally well suited for transporting cargo at speeds of up to 60 km/h. A low own weight of only 11.7 tonnes, along with the integrated VarioGrip tire-pressure control system, makes this series suited for work requiring low ground pressure and high traction power.

Among the static equipment on display were also: an Egritech overload hopper, a Manitou loader, Valley irrigation, Oros and Nardi headers, the Valtra SmartTouch, and precision agriculture from Trimble.

The following equipment of ours was demonstrated in the field:
