Maximum rendering and comfort in collection with the ideal Fendt 8

Supported by the best technology of the combination Fend Ideal 8 And a financial strategy based on the car-upport, Szabo Szabolcs manages to obtain coherent productions and transform every challenge into an opportunity.

It manages a farm of 720 hectares with an unusual passion, cultivated in the 15 years of activity. Although he is a professional veterinarian, he chose to work on the ground instead of dealing with animals. He admits that he had been pushed from the back by his father in the field of animal breeding, without necessarily feeling any attraction in this direction. He took the choice made and now has all the topics on his side.

Queen of the wheat chain.

We met at the end of June, in the middle of the countryside to collect breaks. The atmosphere was hot, alone, with temperatures above the support limit and combines the ideal Fendt 8, purchased last year, dominated the field. «It is the second season in which we work with this combination and we are extremely satisfied. Help us to make the most of the shorter windows of work windows«, He asks the farmer from Fânthe Belne, in the county of Arad.

In fact, it is a high productivity combination, equipped with a double propeller helical rotor, which gives it maximum efficiency, the best quality of cereals and the low energy consumption. Equipped with a 550 HP engine, 14,000 liter bunker and 10.7 meters power flow, Ideal 8 guarantees a quick, efficient and quality collection.

Impressive work

In ideal working conditions, such a combination can silently collect 60 hectares in a single day. Szabo Szabolcs' record is 67 hectares, collected last year on a compact graph. «Before collecting with a combination on the routes and the difference is very large between the two co -cells. Now we see a much better quality of the wheat and a higher speed, aspects that convinced us that this investment was worth«The Aradea assured me.

Most, however, is affected by the quality of the material collected, without cereals and with negligible losses. «Due to the conveyor belt with which the heder of the power flow is equipped, the plants are uniformly aspirated in the combination. Also in the culture of the surprise we have an exceptional collection quality, under a percentage of foreign body. This tape is very important, especially when you face a sleeping culture. Because he will continually meet in the snail with a uniform flow«, Ne-Explicat Szabo Szabolcs.

Ideal conditions for the operator.

The combination is equipped with the Harvestplus system, a technology designed to optimize the quality of the collection and reduce losses. This system uses intelligent sensors and dedicated software for monitoring and regulation of the real -time collection process. «Depending on the volume of straw and collected material, the combination regulates its work parameters. If necessary, they adapt their advancement speed or optimize their performance«, The farmer wanted to emphasize. Furthermore, Fendt Ideal 8 offers a special level of comfort and automation. Using the GPS signal with precision RTK, the combination can work independently on the predetermined routes, eliminating the need for constant operator intervention. All operating parameters are displayed on an intuitive monitor, guaranteeing optimal technology. Easy management.

Satisfactory productions, despite the climatic challenges.

After the first week of collection, the wheat productions in its farm varied between 5 and 7.5 tons of an average per hectare, depending on the preliminary culture and the exposure of the plots to the episode of April ice cream.

«Some surfaces, in particular those sown after the sunflower, when that frost arrived, the culture was more advanced and the wheat was already in the bellows phase, so that the damage was a little more significant. That's why I have the soles in which the wheat has only filled half peak. The valleys were more protected. Instead, where the plants were open, they suffered more. Compromised spring frost about 2 tons per hectare«, Found Szabo Szabolcs. Furthermore, he faced a massive invasion of aphids. How come, he had to intervene three times with contact and the systemic insecticide to protect the culture of wheat.

Wheat of 10 tons per hectare!

For this agricultural season he has sown two different varieties of wheat. The highest altitude in culture has the Monte Cristo variety of Lidea, a very productive variety of wheat. Even if it does not excel in terms of quality, it has an enviable performance. Last year he obtained an average of 8,970 kg per hectare to this variety. However, he also had a plot from which he collected 10,400 kg per hectare. «The difference at the price between a baking grain and a forage is very small. That's why we rely on production. We also have a variety with oven aspirations: Rod Good Alicante, which has a protein 16. We sowed more as a test this year, on an area of ​​30 hectares. Depending on the results that we will register in this campaign, we consider expanding these surfaces«The farmer of the fountain assured us.

A solid partnership

An essential aspect in making decisions on the acquisition of the ideal combination for the collection of Fendt was the relationship with the dealer Fiery. The previous positive experience and the support offered on the side of the service have proven decisive. «The proximity to the general quarter of Ortişoara represented a significant advantage, especially during the agricultural campaigns, when every minute matters. The Mewi Team has always been quick and well trained, eliminating the risk of prolonged delays in any technical problems«, Consider the Aradea.

Healthy financial principles.

In addition to the ideal combination 8, he purchased from Mewi and a tractor Fend 1050 Vario. All purchases were made by their economies. This financial strategy admits, always keeps away from problems and has kept it on the floating line. «I don't like banks. Everything we have in the farm courtyard was purchased with our money. We don't want to indebted. Only then can we resist«, Szabolcs Szabo Szabo.
