What types of grassland technology are there?

Grassland technology comprises a wide range of machines that are specially designed for the maintenance, harvesting and processing of grassland. The most important machines include:

  1. Mowers are the basis of every grassland harvest. They cut the grass cleanly and ensure optimum preparation for the subsequent processing steps. There are different types, such as rotary mowers or double-blade mowers, which are selected depending on the size of the farm and requirements.
  2. Rotary mowers distribute the cut grass evenly to enable quick and effective drying. These machines play an important role in maintaining forage quality and reducing drying time.
  3. Swathers collect the mown grass and place it in uniform swaths to make the harvesting process more efficient. They facilitate subsequent work steps, such as baling or chopping, and ensure consistent forage quality.
  4. Round balers are essential for compressing the mown grass into compact bales that are easy to transport and store. They are available in various sizes and designs to meet the requirements of farms of different sizes.
  5. Wrapping machines protect the crop by packing the compressed bales airtight. This means that the forage has a longer shelf life and remains of high quality. They are a particularly useful addition in combination with round balers.
  6. Bale tongs and bale trolleys facilitate the transportation and storage of the compressed bales. They ensure that the bales are picked up gently and transported safely without damaging the material.

Used grassland technology: efficient machinery for a successful harvest

The grassland harvest requires the use of specialized machinery to process the crop efficiently. Used grassland technology offers farmers a cost-effective way to expand or modernize their machine fleet without incurring high investment costs for new machines. Whether rakes, mowers or round balers - you will find the right machines for your farm on the used market.

Frequently asked questions about grassland technology:

Which is the right grassland technology for my farm?

  • The choice of the right grassland technology depends on various factors, in particular the farm size, the soil conditions and the desired working capacity. For smaller farms with limited areas, compact machines such as smaller mowers, rotary tedders and rakes are ideal, which can also be operated with less horsepower and offer easy handling. Larger farms benefit from more powerful machines such as round balers or mowers with wide working widths, which enable higher area outputs.
  • You should also pay attention to the operational requirements when making your selection. If the storage and preservation of the forage plays a major role, wrapping machines or baler/wrapper combinations make sense. The condition of the ground also plays a role: on hilly terrain, machines with high stability and traction are suitable, such as rakes with adapted axles or mowers with slope capability.
  • It is also important to consider the availability of spare parts and maintenance costs, especially for used machines. Finally, the machine should match the power of the tractor - a machine that is too large may not be able to be operated effectively.


Which manufacturers offer reliable grassland technology?

  • Leading manufacturers are Krone, Claas, Fendt and John Deere. These brands stand for durable and powerful machines that perform well even when used.


What are the advantages of buying used grassland technology?

  • Used grassland technology offers numerous advantages, in particular lower acquisition costs compared to new machines. Many used machines are still in good condition and offer a long service life, especially if they have been regularly serviced. In addition, used machines are often available immediately, without long delivery times.
