HORSCH has revealed its advanced coulter control system, AutoForce, for its Maestro maize drills that automatically adjusts coulter pressure to varying soil conditions. The Maestro’s 300kg per row unit coulter pressure is the highest in the industry, ideal for heavy land but can cause too much compaction when moving into lighter soils. AutoForce prevents this compaction and its development follows HORSCH’s own extensive trials.
HORSCH UK is partnering with two CLAAS UK dealership groups, MANNS & KIRBY and CLAAS Southern, to provide its full range of cultivators, drills and sprayers to farmers across East Anglia and the South East. From 1st January 2017, HORSCH equipment will be available through the two dealership groups.

The Maestro range features pneumatic single grain technology, developed in-house by Horsch, to offer speed and precision control allowing the Maestro to be used for maize, soy, sunflowers, sugarbeet and rapeseed at high speed.
