Welcome

Climate change, environment, politics, demands from society, food, mobility, digitisation, artificial intelligence, mindset… - a lot of topics that put pressure on the agricultural sector and cause dismay. It does not make sense to strike back or to only defend oneself. We decided to look forward and consider all this as a challenge – perhaps even as an opportunity to look for a new orientation for the future.
We already took the first steps some years ago when we started to focus on the topic organic farming and gathered our first experiences. As a consequence, we developed machines that meet the requirements of organic farms. These experiences, in turn, were the basis for the idea of hybrid farming: a new way to farm – environmentally conscious, sustainable, learning from both sides (conventional and organic).
Against the background of these new developments and experiences we are very happy to show you an explosion of innovations at the Agritechnica 2019.
In the tillage sector we will present a new Joker line. We have developed a compact disc harrow that meets the requirements of the markets and the customers from the most different countries!
At the same time, we have extended our plant protection range with self-propelled sprayers that allow for an immense variability for the most different requirements, but also with a trailed plant protection sprayer with a tank capacity of 12,000 l and a tandem axle!
HORSCH, of course, has news with regard to the topic digitisation and connectivity. And finally, you will discover further detail developments on many machines!

Enjoy reading this special edition of terraHORSCH. I am looking forward to meeting you at the Agritechnica at
our stand C41 in hall 12.
