Tractor Manufacturer Delivers the Most Convincing All-ounder Available Today – says the FARM MACHINE Jury.


Valtra G Series is sufficient enough to tackle farming hurdles, With an output of 105-145 horsepower, the Finns place their new G series in the segment with the highest sales numbers in Europe and other parts of the world. As a first, they have designed a machine specifically for this class. In a field test for traction magazine, it showed it is a lot lighter than previous Valtra models in this range, but a lot more versatile in doing loader work. At the same time, it feels very much at home with fieldwork.

Smart Farming Tractor for Beginners

Testers at test drive fell for the Smart touch armrest which comes with the Versu line models. The concept isn’t new for Valtra, but still one of the clearly arranged ones on the market. You adjust anything on the machine by tapping the right area on a tractor image on the monitor. You will get to each option within a maximum of two taps. That is a real advantage over the competition.

The necessary power is provided by a 4.4-liter four-cylinder engine by AGCO Power. The option packages are quite extensive and cause a wide price range for the series.

Valtra G Series Improved the Accuracy at Farm

One of the most talked-about benefits of Smart Farming is the increased level of precision and accuracy that can be achieved. There is no one simple answer as to how much more accurate Smart Farming is compared to traditional methods as the satellite auto-guidance systems used in Smart Farming are available with different levels of pass-to-pass accuracy, ranging from +/-30 cm to +/- 2 cm. Also, different tasks and implements require different overlaps. For example, manual steering while mowing results in overlaps of around 30 cm. With auto-guidance such as Valtra Guide, this is reduced to just 5 cm. For fertilizer spreading, manual steering may give an overlap of about 5% on the headlands. With Valtra Guide and Section Control, the overlap can be reduced to 0%.

 

Valtra G Series Increased Work Efficiency

One of the greatest things about Smart Farming is its potential to save valuable time. Self-steering tractors use auto-guidance software to automatically steer the Valtra G Series along way lines. Auto guidance software such as Valtra Guide can save up to 5% in time.

Valtra G Series Lower driver stress

Working long days and concentrating hard on maintaining straight lines whilst controlling implements can be stressful. Smart Farming can reduce the stresses of daily work in many ways. Auto guidance takes care of maintaining a straight course freeing up the driver to concentrate on the implementation and task at hand. Section Control takes all the guesswork out of switching the sprayer on and off.
