The demand for high-performance tractors and equipment is on the rise in South Africa as farmers are looking for more efficient solutions to their specific challenges.
At this year’s Nampo, visitors to the Case IH stand will be able to witness what it means to have technology in the equipment, on the equipment, and around the equipment.
PRODUCTIVITY AND EFFICIENCY
One of the main attractions at the Case IH stand at Nampo will be the Steiger 715 Quadtrac tractor, the company’s top model for power and technology in South Africa.
With an enormous 533kW (715hp) and peak power of 580kW (778hp), the Steiger 715 is currently the largest and most powerful tractor in the country.
With its Quadtrac design, larger drive wheels, and four independent rubber tracks, the Steiger 715 offers unmatched stability and power, even in the most difficult soil conditions.
