CNH Ag Tech wins big at Agritechnica Innovation Awards

• CNH Ag Tech has won five medals at the Agritechnica Innovation Awards, an annual event organized by the DLG German Agricultural Society.

• New Holland Agriculture, a CNH brand, won the only gold medal for the Twin Rotor Combine Harvester Concept, set to premiere in November 2023. The combine is designed for higher performance, reduced grain loss, and added automation features.

• New Holland also won a silver medal for the T7 LNG tractor concept, featuring biofuel technology for improved farm profitability and sustainability. Another silver was awarded for the T4 Electric Power tractor, the industry’s first all-electric tractor with autonomous features.

• Case IH, another CNH brand, won a silver medal for the Axial-Flow feedrate radar system, which uses radar sensors to assess crop density before it enters the combine harvester, improving throughput speeds, grain quality, and reducing blockages.

• STEYR, a CNH brand specialized in European farming, won a silver medal for its Hybrid CVT tractor prototype. The tractor features a hybrid electric drive, supercapacitor technology for faster acceleration, and E-Shuttling for faster maneuvering at low engine speeds and reduced fuel use.

• The awards reinforce CNH's commitment to innovation, sustainability, and productivity in farming technology.

CNH continues advancing its technology to make farming easier, more efficient, and more sustainable for our customers.

This commitment to excellence has been recognized with a host of innovation awards for our Case IH, New Holland and STEYR brands. Collectively, we won five medals at this year’s prestigious Agritechnica Innovation Awards, conferred annually by the DLG German Agricultural Society.

New Holland Agriculture took home the show’s only gold medal for the new Twin Rotor Combine Harvester Concept, which will have its world premiere at Agritechnica in November 2023. This new combine is designed to deliver higher performance, reduced grain loss and has more added automation features that will supercharge the future of farming.

The brand was also awarded a silver medal for the T7 LNG tractor concept with its ‘better than zero carbon’ environmentally innovative biofuel technology. This tractor helps monetize waste, improving farm profitability and offers accessible sustainability solutions for farms of all sizes. Also receiving a silver medal was the T4 Electric Power tractor, the industry’s first all-electric tractor with autonomous features for maximum productivity and efficiency while delivering emission-free and silent power. The recognition and success of these machines reinforces sustainability as a central pillar of our purpose.

Case IH spotlighted its cutting-edge technology with the silver medal-winning Axial-Flow feedrate radar system, which uses forward-looking radar sensors to scan and assess crop density before it enters the combine harvester rather than the traditional system which takes place during the threshing process. Benefits to the farmer include greater consistency of throughput speeds, reduced losses, improved grain quality and reduced risk of blockages, thereby making short optimal harvesting windows more productive and profitable.

STEYR, our highly specialized tractor brand for European farming, won a silver medal for its unique Hybrid CVT tractor prototype. Its hybrid electric drive supplies additional power, taking the tractor from 180hp to 260hp. The tractor delivers faster acceleration with supercapacitor technology. E-Shuttling results in faster maneuvering at low engine speeds and a reduction in fuel use.

These medal winners, together with the innovations in our wider portfolio, testify to how CNH puts innovation, sustainability, and productivity to work for our customers everywhere.
