KUHN has announced 20 new products will be launched in the coming year with many being available in the UK. The announcement comes as part of a global business update that shows the machinery manufacturer has more than doubled its staff since the turn of the millennium and has 24 sites with a presence in over 110 countries.

KUHN’s rapid expansion has seen its employees grow to 5,800, up from 2,050 in 2000, and the addition of 7 new manufacturing plants, taking the total to 11 worldwide. “A new plant has been established in Hungary and KUHN Group is also expanding in Russia,” explains UK Managing Director Siân Pritchard.

Most notable is the investment in research and development that has led to an impressive 20 new machines being unveiled in 2022. These include new grassland, cultivation, seeding and tillage equipment.

Mowers including the new Merge Maxx 440F and a rear mounted mower conditioner, the FC 9330 RA, will join an already strong line up. There is also a new VBP 3165 baler on the way which uses the brand’s unique INTELLIWRAP film binding.

A new Multi-Leader plough with in furrow and on land versions will be available along with a range of Optimer disc stubble cultivators. This will offer both conventional plough system farms and those embracing a minimum tillage approach upgraded machines which will provide greater efficiencies in the field.

A range of new drills including the new SITERAe, a mechanical integrated model with electrical drive, has also been announced. The Venta range will be updated with a 320 pneumatic model which offers more precise seed placement from a light and compact machine.

The MyKUHN platform has been updated and is free to all customers to help manage machine performance and collate data. This is complemented by KUHN’s CCI Connect onboard and offboard technology which makes both operating machines and sharing data faster and more intuitive.

“By focussing on what 21^st century agriculture needs, and making the required investments in research and development, KUHN is leading the way in agricultural machinery. These new products will complement the existing range and offer operators a KUHN machine for almost every task,” concludes Siân.
