Pöttinger Lifts Revenue 5% to EUR 485m in 2025/26
Austrian manufacturer Pöttinger has completed its fiscal year 2025/26 (ending 31 July) with what it suggests is a satisfactory overall result, with revenues of EUR 485 million, an increase of 5%.
The latest 4.0 version is said to make work significantly easier, provide efficient management and extensive logistics support, and contribute to consistently high feed quality, displaying locations of fields and clamps, organising process sequences, alongside tracking and guiding machines, all in real time with a clear and intuitive user interface.
Delivered in real time, the subscription-free system utilises Pottinger Connect telemetry units installed on each machine, in ISOBUS or non-ISOBUS equipped tractors, to turn mowers, rakes, balers and loader wagons into smart machines that communicate with the Harvest Assist App.
Machine data is continuously made available in real time to everyone in the harvesting group, giving all group participants insight into key harvest data such as transport and working times, the process status of each field, and the amount of crop that has been harvested.
Regardless of the business, everyone can see what each machine is doing at any given moment, in addition, the nutrient requirement of each field can be calculated by comparing the annual forage growth.
Drilling down even deeper, the app displays the location, position and status of each swath in an intuitive map that is always up-to-date. High density points in the swath are also clearly marked, so the driver can adjust forward speed to avoid blockages.
When used with a baler, the bale map provides the exact location of every bale, alongside the key metrics of weight and moisture content. This is said to be useful for deciding the sequence in which the bales are collected and stored. For contractors, the app displays the exact baling time per bale, loading time per load, as well as performance data such as output per hectare, plus the working time and transport time of other machines such as mowers and rakes.
