The American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) published the list of winners of the annual AE50 Innovation Award.
Thus, AE50 Innovation Awards were rendered for the following systems:
- Frame lift and control system installed in the cab for Case IH Early Riser 2140 sowing machines, which allows you to readjust automatically the type of sowing
- CVXDrive variator for Case IH Steiger and Quadtrac tractors which is the first continuously variable transmission for tractors of this power (up to 605 hp.)
- Nutri-Placer 930 HSLD high-performance unit for application of anhydrous ammonia
- Trident 5550 self-propelled fertilizer spreader capable of applying both dry and liquid fertilizers. At that change of mode takes not more than an hour.
The AE50 Awards are given for the most innovative projects of the year in the field of engineering products or systems for the food and agricultural industries.
Companies from all over the world apply for the annual competition, of which the 50 best products are evaluated by a group of international engineers.
