What should we know when choosing a plow?

Agrotechnical measures and the tillage system are a strategic decision that every farmer makes based on the condition of the soil and field, taking into account the climate and climate change, as well as on the basis of previous experience and good practices!

If you have decided to plow, then you need a sturdy and reliable inventory!

Why do thousands of farmers around the world trust Kverneland plows?

A Kverneland survey among German and French farmers shows that plowing is recognized as the most important processing. More than 60% of them consider it a fundamental step, and the main advantage for 80 of them is that they save on chemicals in preventing the appearance of weeds.

Low costfor operation and low fuel consumption, thanks to the lower weighton the plows.

And not only. Working width, depth and adjustment affect the quality of processing and fuel consumption.

How can you take advantage of the benefits of over 140 years of experience?

Each plowis made of steel, made according to a special recipe for Kverneland and passed a special heat treatment including carbonization in alcohol and various types of induction hardening.

The scoreboards of the plows run through 12-hour thermal heating process. It creates 2 steels in one body:

• Hard layer — like diamond for optimal wear resistance;
• Flexible layer — absorbs twists.

For the highest performance during plowing, Kverneland polishes the body to provide a smooth surface for a perfect furrow.

How does heat hardened steel reduce costs?

• Heat treatment of the metal allows the structure to be lighter in comparison with other plows of the same dimensions, and from there to reduce the requirements for tractor power and fuel consumption when plowing.

• The heat-treated steel also minimizes the maintenance costs of Kverneland plows, as the working bodies are lighter, but also stronger and last longer.

Kverneland hardened steel frame strength

The Kverneland frames have undergone a double induction heat treatment. Carefully monitor the heat transfer to the steel. The strength of the frame increases 3 times. Kverneland's unique induction process provides strength and flexibility, and the workpieces are distinguished by an extremely long service life.

Stronger, but not heavier

To achieve the strength of Kverneland, competitors would have to use a steel structure of larger dimensions or thickness, i.e. the frame would be heavier.

A heavier frame requires more traction, causes greater wear on parts, negatively affects lifting capacity, tractor service life and fuel consumption.

Protection of working bodies!

Depending on the soil in your fields, you can choose between bolt and auto-reset protectionon the working bodies. So you guarantee yourself a longer time in the field with each of the models!

The elements of the auto-reset protection have a different release force, which is directly related to the effort that the plow has to apply when working. For lighter soils, the lower levels can be used, while for heavier and stony soils, an increased degree of effort to divert the working organs is recommended in order to ensure quality tillage.

What do farmers share about Kverneland inventory?

Krasimir Todorov, Krushevo AD
“I would recommend to anyone who wishes to purchase Kverneland branded inventory, as they will know that they are buying something of quality that will work for them and in the future will lower the cost of their production”

Damian Vatev, Biologica Ltd
“We have a Kverneland plow, reversible with non-stop protection. We have been using it for many years and I can say that we are happy with it”

Stelian Stoyanov, Agri SS
“Their durability and reliability allows us to work more calmly in more difficult conditions. We have been working with Kverneland plows for over 25 years and have again chosen to rely on this brand for our two new plows”
