AGCO Corporation recently introduced a new 30-foot model for its Fendt Momentum planter line.

Fendt’s AE50 planter is now offered in 30- to 60-foot machines with liquid and dry fertilizer systems, and in 12- and 23-row configurations with 30- and 15-inch spacing, respectively.

“We’ve worked hard to expand our product lineup here in North America, and we’re excited to bring greater flexibility to farmers with the Momentum planter line,” said Arthur Santos, marketing manager for Fendt planters at AGCO. “This addition allows family-owned farms and smaller operations to experience the best in agronomic planting, increasing their yields and improving their bottom lines.”

A quick look at some of its new features:

  • The Momentum planter is now offered in 30- to 60-foot machines with liquid and dry fertilizer systems , and in 12- and 23-row configurations with 30- and 15-inch spacing, respectively.
  • AGCO’s exclusive SmartFrame technology puts each row unit in the best possible position for row cleaning, downforce, furrow creation, seed placement and closing.
  • The Vertical Contouring Toolbar and its independent floating toolbars follow the topography of your terrain for 52-inch of vertical planting range.
  • Load Logic™ weight management minimizes soil compaction, and wide in-line tandem wheels eliminate pinch rows.
