Advanced windrowers, balers, and AI-powered tools help improve forage harvesting efficiency.
New Holland is reinforcing its First in Grassland Farming commitment with a broad portfolio of equipment, connected technologies and aftermarket solutions designed to support cattle producers, hay and forage operations, and mixed farms. The program builds on more than 130 years of agricultural innovation and New Holland’s longstanding expertise in hay and forage.
“Re-staking our claim as First in Grassland Farming isn't just a strategic priority for New Holland. It's part of who we are,” said Ryan Schaefer, Vice President for New Holland North America. “For generations, livestock producers have trusted New Holland equipment to help them harvest high quality feed, care for their animals and support their families. Being First in Grassland Farming means honoring that legacy while continuing to deliver the innovation, quality and support our customers need to succeed for generations to come.”
A key focus is the Speedrower 1 Series Self-Propelled Windrower lineup, which offers increased horsepower, improved operator controls, enhanced cooling and Relative Yield Monitoring with lifetime FieldOps connectivity. These features are designed to improve productivity while turning harvesting activity into useful field intelligence.
The Model Year 2027 Roll-Belt 1 Series round balers add durability enhancements, a new net protection system, factory-fit IntelliBale automation and updated operator technology to simplify baling in demanding conditions.
New Holland is also advancing forage harvesting through technologies such as ForageCam, NutriSense and CropSpeed. ForageCam uses AI-based image analysis to monitor kernel processing and automatically adjust crop processor settings, helping operators maintain forage quality while reducing interruptions.
The company’s NHCast podcast platform will expand its coverage of agricultural innovation, featuring farmers, experts and industry leaders discussing technology adoption, business management, workforce development, sustainability and the future of farming.
New Holland is also demonstrating how modern precision technology can extend the value of existing equipment through a Genesis 8970 tractor equipped with aftermarket precision solutions.
Alongside this, Dynamic Blue styling and expanded WORKMASTER compact tractor offerings reflect the company’s focus on combining heritage, connectivity, productivity and modern design.
Together, these initiatives are intended to help farmers manage costs, labor pressures, efficiency demands and technology adoption while improving productivity and confidence across their operations.
