Krone Group Earnings Drop Despite Stable Farm Machinery Sales
While turnover was back slightly at €2.3 billion in 2024/2025 (previous year €2.4 billion), the German Krone Group saw earnings fall from €107 million to €40.1 million.
The clever design, featuring a hydraulic slewing gearbox enables the outer discs of the mower bed to fold inwards, neatly positioning them between the tractor wheels, allowing for a road transport width of less than 3m while the driveline remains connected and the discs stay in cutting position.
From the cab, operators can initiate the hydraulic, sequencecontrolled folding system, then once in the paddock, the mower automatically unfolds and locks into working position, with the side guards deploying simultaneously.
The resultant 4.04m working width offers greater coverage and overlap, particularly on slopes, so when used in combination with three-point linkage, rear trailed or butterfly mower combinations, the EasyCut F 400 CV Fold removes the problem of running over previously cut material or leaving strips of uncut grass. Its wide working width supports higher efficiency and cleaner results across varying terrain.
Product manager Shaun Montieth says the EasyCut F 400 CV Fold is a practical and innovative choice for professional operators.
“At just over four metres, the unit delivers greater work rates than traditional front mowers, which are typically limited to about 3.2 metres working width, while still complying with the three-metre road transport limit. It’s an ideal solution for modern farming operations seeking performance and compliance in one.”
