Sky Agriculture launches Sky Sonic precision planter
Sky Agriculture was formed in 2020, bringing together the well-known European brands of Sulky, Prolog and Sky, under the oversight of the family-owned Burel Group.
All part of the Burel Group, the company is looking to build on record net sales of €85 million for the 2022-2023 financial year, suggesting that the single-brand strategy will enable it to adapt to the changing face of agricultural equipment distribution in Europe in a market that is becoming more concentrated.
The creation of Sky Agriculture is also intended to support the group’s export growth, that currently sees around 40% of production sold outside of France, with a short-term aim of pushing this to 50%.
Dairy News understands that the first Sky Agriculture branded machines are already leaving the group’s four production sites of Carvin, Fontenay and Chateaubourg in France, and Osasco in Italy, with the new look to be publicly showcased at the German Agritechnica Event in November.
