Väderstad introduced the TopDown combination cultivator in 2004. Today, this machine still plays a strong part in the Väderstad portfolio. Good reason to celebrate TopDowns’ 20-year anniversary, earlier crowned as “Farm Machine of the Year 2024”.
Launched in 2004, the TopDown combination cultivator quickly became a success because of its capability of both deep- and shallow cultivation, as well as reconsolidation in one pass. The machine has received numerous updates since 2004.
“ We are proud to look back at the development of TopDown, as well as very excited about its future. TopDown is as relevant today as it was when it was launched to the market in 2004”, says Wolfram Hastolz, Commercial Manager Tillage equipment, at Väderstad.
During Agritechnica in November 2023, TopDown with E-services has won the “Farm Machine of the Year 2024” award in the tillage category, voted by a jury from 16 agricultural magazines from across Europe.
Hastolz: “With the introduction of E-Services, we take TopDown to the next level. By being able to adapt the tillage depth and reconsolidation intensity in every part of the field depending on conditions and soil types, we further improve the work result, while promoting soil health, saving time and costs.”
