Video: Fendt Slicer - Automated adjustment of the conditioner intensity

The Fendt Slicer explained: Grassland and forage stands show a high heterogeneous biomass growth when cut, which leads to different initial dry masses and drying speeds. The aim is to have a consistent dry matter content of 30 to 40% across the entire field. The Fendt Slicer 960/1010 Pro models with optional tine conditioner offer variable adjustment of the conditioner intensity thanks to the innovative ISOBUS control. The automatic adjustment is made using sensors in real time measurements or using application data based on the position registration of the biomass.
