Kverneland Enduro Pro cultivator: Built for Southern Africa’s toughest fields
Southern Africa’s diverse agricultural landscape demands machinery that can withstand challenging conditions while delivering consistent performance.
The Kverneland Enduro Pro cultivator rises to this challenge, offering a robust solution tailored to Southern Africa’s unique farming needs.
Engineered for diverse terrains
The Enduro Pro boasts a three-row tine arrangement with spacing optimised at 270 to 285 mm, ensuring efficient soil mixing and residue incorporation — even when dealing with high volumes of crop residues like maize or
sunflower stubble. Its generous 870 mm under-beam and 750 mm inter-row clearances facilitate smooth operation without blockages, crucial for Southern Africa’s fields where crop residues can be substantial.
Adaptable depth control
With the capability to work at depths up to 35 cm, the Enduro Pro allows farmers to perform both shallow and deep tillage as required. The hydraulic depth adjustment system, complemented by a parallelogram linkage, ensures consistent working depth and optimal levelling, even on uneven terrain.
Versatile roller options
Recognising the varied soil types across Southern Africa, the Enduro Pro offers a range of roller options:
• Actipack roller: Ideal for medium to heavy soils, its independent skids and knives break down clods and consolidate the soil effectively.
• Actiflex roller: Designed for high-speed operations, its spring steel rings handle stony conditions with ease.
• Actiring roller: A lighter alternative suitable for lighter soils, reducing the lifting requirements for tractors.
Enhanced weed control
The optional triple finger harrow at the rear of the Enduro Pro serves a dual purpose: levelling the soil and uprooting weeds. This mechanical weed control method is particularly beneficial in reducing reliance on herbicides, promoting sustainable farming practices.
Durability meets efficiency
Equipped with Triflex tines offering a 700 kg release force, the Enduro Pro is built to handle tough conditions,
including stony soils. Its design minimises maintenance needs, ensuring that farmers can focus more on cultivation and less on equipment upkeep.
Local support and availability
Distributed by Jupidex, a trusted name in Southern African agriculture, the Enduro Pro is backed by a network that understands the local farming landscape. This ensures that farmers have access to expert advice, parts, and service when they need it most.
Conclusion
In a country where farming conditions can be as varied as its landscapes, the Kverneland Enduro Pro stands out as a
versatile, durable, and efficient cultivator. Its design and features align perfectly with the demands of Southern African agriculture, making it a valuable asset for farmers aiming to optimise their tillage operations.
