Insights
The AE50 awards showcase AGCO's significant technological advancements across multiple product lines. The Application Lift System represents a major efficiency breakthrough, potentially reducing equipment changeover time by 50-70% and eliminating the need for additional heavy machinery. This translates to substantial operational cost savings for agricultural businesses.
The OutRun™ Autonomous Grain Cart Solution addresses the critical labor shortage in agriculture while potentially increasing harvest efficiency by 20-30%. Its compatibility with older tractors is particularly valuable, as it allows farmers to modernize existing equipment rather than requiring entirely new machinery purchases.
The ReconBlockage™ Sensor technology could prevent yield losses of up to 5-10% by detecting blockages early. This acoustic-based innovation surpasses traditional optical sensors in reliability and effectiveness, especially in dusty conditions common during seeding operations.
These innovations strengthen AGCO's competitive position in the precision agriculture market, estimated to reach
The ErgoSteer™ retrofit option for existing Fendt tractors shows smart market positioning, allowing AGCO to capture additional revenue from its installed base while increasing customer loyalty. The 30-foot Momentum® planter's targeting of smaller farms opens up a new market segment, potentially increasing AGCO's addressable market by
New farmer-focused solutions from AGCO Parts, Fendt, Precision Planting and PTx Trimble recognized for innovation and engineering excellence.
"AGCO's 2025 AE50 winners build on the momentum set by our innovations of the last five years, providing farmer-focused solutions that save time, reduce costs and enhance yields," said AGCO Chairman, President & CEO Eric Hansotia. "I'm especially proud that these awards span our brands, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to addressing farmers' needs and values."
AGCO Parts Application Lift System
AGCO Parts' Application Lift System allows operators to efficiently lift and exchange application systems (usually dry to/from liquid) at their own locations, increasing machine usefulness, versatility and return on investment. Prior to this solution, additional equipment such as cranes and loaders were required for such changes, increasing cost, time, difficulty and personnel needs. The Application Lift System can leverage the adjustable suspension of the Fendt Rogator® applicator to perform most of the exchange. Optional chain hoists are available for final adjustments or lifting from machines that do not include adjustable suspensions.
Fendt ErgoSteer™ Retrofittable Steering Joystick
Fendt ErgoSteer is a retrofittable steering joystick for Fendt 500 to 1000 series tractors that provides ergonomic, precise and intuitive control for field operations. Operated with the left hand from the seat's armrest, ErgoSteer allows comfortable and efficient tractor control with minimal movement from the driver. Compatible with all FendtONE™ Profi+ wheel tractors with the latest software, ErgoSteer offers adjustable steering sensitivity and a return-to-center function for straight driving.
Fendt Momentum® 30-Foot Planter
The Fendt Momentum 30-Foot Planter brings advanced planting benefits to smaller farms, with 100-bushel seed capacity and 800-gallon liquid fertilizer capacity. Factory-installed Precision Planting options include Conceal® fertilizer openers and EMHD® for accurate liquid control. The Load Logic™ system and high flexion tires reduce compaction, and the SmartFrame™ toolbar offers 52 inches of row unit travel for uniform planting depth, leading to improved emergence and optimum yields.
Precision Planting ReconBlockage™ Sensor
Precision Planting's ReconBlockage prevents skips and yield loss when seeding and fertilizing by using acoustic sensors to detect flow variance by section, instantly alerting operators of blocked runs, which cost time and money. ReconBlockage sensors work like stethoscopes, capturing and interpreting sounds and alerting operators via a wireless app to buildup issues that would otherwise plague optical sensors.
PTx Trimble OutRun™ Autonomous Grain Cart Solution
OutRun is an autonomous solution that allows tractors to pull grain carts without drivers during harvest. It is a self-contained kit that supports older tractor models and helps maintain or improve productivity when labor is scarce. OutRun's interface allows operators to position grain carts around fields, and autonomously match speed and distance with combines for on-the-go unloading and unloading in designated zones. The solution avoids unharvested land and uses previously traveled paths to minimize soil compaction. OutRun operates using its own communication system for reliable operation regardless of cellular coverage in the field.
