Mechanical harvest white asparagus

The asparagus season demands speed, quality and certainty during harvest.

With Chris, our tracked care and harvesting machine for white asparagus, we help growers make their harvest more efficient, reliable and easier to plan. Chris drives through the asparagus bed, cuts the white asparagus with two round knives, sieves the soil and rebuilds the ridge afterwards.

This offers clear advantages:

• Labour savings: Chris is operated by one person and offers space for up to four people to pre-sort the asparagus directly on the machine.
• Better ridge hygiene: by sieving the soil and rebuilding the bed, Chris creates a cleaner ridge, contributing to improved asparagus quality.
• More control over planning: with a driving speed of 0–60 metres per minute and integrated lighting, Chris offers flexibility during busy harvest periods.
• Field pre-sorting: thin or crooked asparagus can be left in the field immediately, avoiding unnecessary handling of unprofitable product.
• Strong and manoeuvrable: thanks to its tracks and separately driven track system, Chris performs well in challenging conditions and needs minimal space to turn.

Until 24 June, the end of the asparagus season, it is possible to view a machine at one of our customers’ locations by appointment.
