  • HOLMER introduces advanced Smart Farming features on the Terra Variant slurry tanker, enhancing precision and resource efficiency.

  • New functions include automatic Section Control, Variable Rate Control using application maps, and nutrient-based slurry application via Zunhammer's NIR sensor.

  • The Terra Variant now integrates with John Deere AutoTrac™ steering and StarFire™ 7000 receiver, enabling full connectivity and fleet management.

  • HOLMER showcases the Terra Variant range at Agritechnica 2025, emphasizing flexibility with both the powerful 650 model and the compact 435 model capable of handling heavy implements.

At Agritechnica 2025, the Terra Variant showcases even greater intelligence and versatility. At the HOLMER booth as well as at our partner Zunhammer’s stand, the variable carrier vehicle is more innovative than ever – featuring state- of-the-art Smart Farming technology and proven equipment combinations.

With its new Section Control and Variable Rate Control functions, the Terra Variant now operates with even more precision and efficiency. Whether applying slurry with conventional implements or using the SecatFlex slurry hoe, site-specific management is now possible – enabling targeted nutrient supply and optimal weed control, even on irregularly shaped fields.

The automatic Section Control prevents overlaps and gaps. Combined with Vari- able Rate Control, which uses application maps, the Terra Variant sets new stan- dards in resource efficiency, precision, and compliance with legal requirements. Moreover, the Terra Variant goes one step further: thanks to the NIR sensor technology from our partner Zunhammer, slurry is applied based on its actual nutrient content – en- suring pinpoint accuracy and sustainable farming practices.

Open for Every System – Now Compatible with John Deere AutoTrac™

At Agritechnica 2025, the Terra Variant will, for the first time, be presented with the John Deere AutoTrac™ steering system and StarFire™ 7000 receiver. This opens up the full potential of the John Deere ecosystem to operators and owners alike – from precision steering with all correction signals to fleet management via JDLink™ Connectivity and the Operations Center, as well as seamless data integration for operational analysis and decision-making. This makes the Terra Variant part of an intelligent, fully connected sys- tem – regardless of fleet composition.

Unique Combinations – Flexibility in Focus

At Agritechnica 2025, HOLMER will present the full range of the Terra Variant:

  • Terra Variant 650: Displayed in its typical working environment with an AMA- ZONE Catros 6001 + GreenDrill and a John Deere steering system – Smart Farm- ing combined with the most powerful self-propelled slurry tanker on the market.

  • Terra Variant 435: Presented at the Zunhammer booth with a high-performance slurry disc harrow – a combination that demonstrates how the compact Terra Variant 435 can effortlessly handle even heavy implements.

These exhibits highlight the Terra Variant’s outstanding flexibility: whether powerful or compact, HOLMER offers both the most powerful and the lightest self-propelled slurry tanker on the market.
