The innovative planting system Tempo WideLining is awarded the Agritechnica Innovation Award 2019 silver medal. Väderstad WideLining is the worlds’ first tramlining system that does not drastically lower the yield on the silage maize field.

- We are very proud and glad to be awarded with silver medal at the Agritechnica Innovation Award 2019. Tempo WideLining is an important innovation to further develop our planter Tempo and give our customers another good tool on the machine to potentially increase the yield even more, says Mattias Hovnert, SVP Sales & Marketing at Väderstad.

WideLining is the worlds’ first tramlining system making it possible for the farmer to spread liquid manure in a standing silage maize crop, without having to lower the total yield potential of the field.

- Instead of preparing the wheel tracks for the liquid manure spreader by shutting off row units, WideLining automatically changes the row spacing on the planter. WideLining thereby makes all row units, always plant at full capacity, the yield is kept high on the field, says Jörgen Dahl, Commercial Product Manager for Planters, at Väderstad.

When creating the wheel tracks that the liquid manure spreader will later use, the WideLining system automatically makes the Tempo planter adjust its row spacing setup to create two 1050mm tyre tracks.

- The tramlines are created by hydraulically adjusting the placement of four row units on the frame of the planter. Thereby the row spacing between the row units next to the 1050mm lines will go from 750mm to 600mm, which is an acceptable row spacing to maintain a high yield level in a silage maize crop, says Jörgen Dahl.

The all-new WideLining system will have its premiere at the agricultural tradeshow Agritechnica in November 2019 in Hannover, Germany. The WideLining technology will be available for the versatile high-speed planter Väderstad Tempo V 6-12 from the second half of 2020.
