New Holland is celebrating 50 years of innovation in twin rotor harvesting technology!

Key Highlights:

TR70 Legacy (1975): The world’s first twin rotor combine, introducing grain-on-grain threshing for gentle crop handling and maximum grain savings.
50 Years of Innovation: Continuous improvements in power, efficiency, machine design, and operator comfort across TR and CR series combines.
Modern Advancements: Grain loss sensing, yield monitoring, and IntelliSense harvest automation for real-time machine optimization.
World Record Performance: The CR10.90 set a wheat harvesting world record in 2014 — a record that still stands today.
CR11 and CR10 Series (New Generation): Launched last year, setting new industry standards for capacity, automation, and harvesting performance.
