CLAAS introduces North America to its tractor series

CLAAS launched its new tractor lineup to North America this week at Ag in Motion.

The European-based company chose Ag in Motion for its global launch.

CLAAS is well known for its combines and now it's adding tractors to their product line 

Neil Pantlin, the Head of Commercial Development for CLAAS feels the tractors are a good fit in the North American market.

"We are launching the Xerion tractor and the new generation of Xerion tractor.  So, you've got the track version and you've got the wheeled version, and the second tractor that we're showcasing here is the Arion range. All three tractors are under the umbrella of the tractor division of CLAAS group."

He notes the Xerion is much larger than the Arion which is more multi-purpose.

"I'd like to think that we are now a serious player in the tractor business.  I think it's very important to say this. The only way people really need to understand this is to come and try it. Go to your local dealer go to CLAAS America,  go to CLAAS Canada, knock on the door, and try it."

The tractors were developed with extensive input from North American farmers.

Video: Understanding the Blackleg & Verticillium Connection Webinar

This webinar will explore the emerging connection between blackleg and verticillium stripe in canola, two diseases increasingly shaping yield risk across the Prairies. Presented by Ian Epp of Sask Oilseeds, the session will unpack current research and field observations that highlight how blackleg infection may influence the development and severity of verticillium stripe later in the season.

You will gain insight into disease biology, environmental drivers, and the role of variety selection, rotation, and management decisions in reducing overall disease pressure. The webinar will also connect the dots between early-season disease management and long-term risk, helping growers and agronomists better anticipate challenges and adapt strategies for more resilient canola production.
