Producers in the rice farming sector will find at Valtra's stand, during Fenarroz 2016, a series of special agricultural machinery options for working in high humidity and low support soils, characteristic of rice crops.

From May 24th to 29th, in the city of Cachoeira do Sul (RS), Valtra, a reference in the production of agricultural machinery in Brazil, will prominently present its range of medium and heavy tractors, which today are a reference in rice cultivation , due to the differentiated performance they provide, considering the large number of hours required from the equipment used in this type of cultivation.

The BM 125 tractor, with medium power, offers performance and robustness, with a new 58 liter/minute hydraulic system. This model presents a great difference, due to the high free space and structural fuel tank, which makes cleaning the tractor easier – a fundamental condition for use in rice areas.

In the same line of characteristics, BH tractors are widely used in soil preparation in rice growing areas, an activity that requires a large number of hours, making Valtra equipment an excellent choice in terms of cost-benefit ratio in rice cultivation, as the innovative 4 hp 137-cylinder turbo-intercooled engine provides lower fuel consumption per hectare.

The BT210 tractor, with 215 hp and HISIX automatic transmission with 24F x 24R gears, is equipped with a 6-cylinder AGCO Power turbo engine and AG300 autopilot. Valtra tractors from the BM110, BM 125 and BH lines can also come factory equipped with autopilot and telemetry.

Another Valtra product for Fenarroz is the BS 3020H Sprayer, with a 3 thousand liter tank, capable of operating with biodiesel and which offers a free space of up to 1,65 m in height and is equipped with the AG3000 autopilot system.

According to Valtra's commercial coordinator in the region, Fabrício Muller, in addition to the tractors, the brand will also bring rice seeders and soybean planters to the event, as the Cachoeira do Sul region, in addition to having great representation in the rice, has also shown important growth in soybean production in recent years. “We selected the most suitable agricultural equipment for crops in this region of Rio Grande do Sul. Traditionally, Valtra is already very strong in tractors in rice farming and we are increasingly attentive to the needs of rural producers in the south of the country” , concludes Fabrício, highlighting that, in addition to the service provided by the Tritec Concessionaire during the event, visitors will have access to the facilities offered by AGCO Finance and the Consórcio Nacional Valtra.
