Two new machines will be on show at the KRM stand during Lamma 2025. The first is the Bredal K110 trailed lime and fertiliser spreader, a tandem axle model that bridges the gap between the largest single-axle machine and the previous smallest tandem.
It features the same floor belt design and spreading system as the rest of K range, enabling it to spread a wide variety of materials, including lime, fibrophos, chalk, sand and all grades of fertiliser, according to the company.
The discs are hydraulically driven, running from a PTO pump pack and controlled via Isobus. KRM states that this provides high power even at low disc speeds for the application of high rates of lime. Conversely, it can also provide high disc speeds for wide-width fertiliser spreading, with independent speed control for headland work.
The tandem running gear includes suspended axles, as well as passive rear steering, which can be hydraulically locked when reversing.
The K110 has a 9cu m capacity, equating to around 9t of fertiliser or 14t of lime, and comes as standard with Isobus rate control and the lime spreading setup. Options include weigh cells, a fertiliser kit, hopper cover, extensions, various tyre options and a stainless steel hopper.
Strip-Till 6000
The range of powered strip-till cultivations has been extended with a new 6m model, designated the 6000/750/8, which can work across eight rows with 75cm spacings.
Up to 70% of the field surface remains untouched, meaning that established cover crops or grass leys remain in place and the surface is maintained for subsequent operations such as maize harvesting.
An additional benefit of strip-till is reducing fuel usage, wearing parts and tractor power.
Leading tines break the soil surface, followed by driven rotavator blades which can work down between 15 and 25cm. At the rear, a segmented roller consolidates the worked ground, with the option to also apply granular or liquid fertiliser.
The new model joins the existing 3m models, one of which has the same 75cm spacings as the new machine and works over four rows, while the other works on six rows with 50cm spacings.
