This year’s Novi Sad International Agricultural Fair machinery show sees a new generation of a self-propelled machine with both sprayer booms and a spreader.

According to Vršac Agromineral Managing Director Branimir Popov, we’re seeing a big push toward multi-use implements such as Stara Imperador 3.0. It’s a middle boom system where it functions as a sprayer, but also as a fertilizer spreader. It’s the first and only self-propelled sprayer equipped with cutting-edge technology, the cabin is equipped with intelligent and functional items so that it provides greater comfort while performing a task.

This heavy duty giant has got a built-in system that is able to accurately apply fertilizer, it allows for splitting up between the nitrogen and fungicide application while maintaining the same track, ensuring greater speed and efficiency in application. Depending on the region, its autonomy can reach up to 65 hectares per hour. It sells at the price of €300,000 value added tax excluded, and customers are entitled to a 3-4 per cent discount for all payments made by the end of the month.
