At a time in the world where we need collaboration and unity more than ever, it’s great to see two dealerships working together to create a clear pathway for both of their businesses.

Chandlers (Farm Equipment) Ltd and Lister Wilder have both steadily expanded over the past half century, developing their businesses independently whilst sharing some very similar family values.   The synergy extends to the franchises, with both family-owned companies having grown around the Massey Ferguson, Fendt and Valtra franchises, with Chandlers currently operating from 7 depots covering primarily Lincolnshire and the East Midlands, and Lister Wilder operating from 8 depots covering Oxfordshire and the South-Central region.

Heads up display for tractors

11/10/2019

Valtra has revealed the final design of their heads up display (HUD) SmartGlass at the 2019 Agritechnica Show.

Positioned in the centre of the tractor’s front windscreen, Valtra SmartGlass is based on transparent display technology, laminated between two glass surfaces. This makes the solution very robust and suitable for demanding operation conditions of agricultural machinery.

Valtra tractors ready for precision farming and the future

10/25/2019

Valtra has taken a step beyond precision farming and is now aiming at Smart Farming. Smart Farming involves more than just adjusting tractor functions based on location information or some other individual technology. Instead, it is an integral part of the entire ecosystem of a farm or contractor, from crop planning to financial administration and purchasing to maintenance. Smart Farming is easy, Smart Farming is profitable and Smart Farming is environmentally friendly.

Robotic vacuum cleaners and lawnmowers are already reality, but can the same idea be applied to a 7-ton machine clearing an airstrip from snow? To show it can, Valtra and Nokian Tyres partnered up with three other Finnish companies in March 2019 for a joint proof-of-concept project at the European Union’s northernmost airport. Two Valtra T254 Versu equipped with Nokian Hakkapeliitta TRI tires and each pulling a 4.5 m wide sweeper blower autonomously cleared the runway at Ivalo airport in Finnish Lapland.
