HARVESTER AWARD PRESENTED

Every two years, a jury of international agricultural and agricultural engineering journalists presents the Farm Machine Awards. Normally, these are awarded at Agritechnica, but due to the cancellation of this year's event, the German Landwirtschaftsverlag (dlv) decided on a digital award, with the jury presenting the new Claas Trion with an award in the 'Combine Harvester' category.

Jan-Hendrik Mohr, who is responsible for the grain harvesting business area on the Claas Group executive board said, "The Farm Machine Award is a great honour for everyone who worked on this product and confirms our development goal of a strongly customer-oriented, technologically broad-based mid-range combine harvester.

“Rarely before have farmers and contractors from all the important growing regions in the world been so central to a new machine development as with the Trion. As a result, we can now cover an equipment range from low-spec to high-spec from 258 hp, which gives customers the opportunity to catch up technologically with the Lexion, or to use a simple machine without a lot of electronics to suit their business.”

The TRION was first presented and launched in Europe in the summer of 2021, with 20 models in the range and options of straw-walker, single rotor and twin rotor versions.
