Vaderstad and KV acquire inter-row mechanical weeders

摘要

With an accelerating trend among growers to tackle at least some weeds by mechanical means, established tillage equipment manufacturers have been scrambling to get a foothold in the market.While Horsch and, most recently, Sumo have developed their own products, others have bought existing ranges - Amazone (with Schmotzer) and Lemken (Steketee) were among the first to take this approach and Pot-tinger recently snapped up a fellow Austrian specialist in the field. Now, Kvemeland Group and Vaderstad are getting in on the act by each acquiring a ready-made inter-row product range featuring mechanical and vision-based guidance technology.
