Väderstad, one of the world’s leading companies in tillage and planting, has grown strongly in recent years. In 2022 a new Factory center will be ready in Väderstad, an investment of SEK 125 million.

In 2021, Väderstad takes the next step for the high-speed Tempo planter by introducing a new model to the Tempo L family. The all-new Tempo L 32 will be the largest Tempo planter to date. 

Väderstad introduces the new 80/120mm point, built in high-quality Swedish steel. The 80/120mm point delivers an aggressive cultivation, combined with a very intensive mixing. It can be fitted to the tine cultivators Cultus, Opus and TopDown.

Väderstad updates the pneumatic seed drill Spirit 400C/S, to provide added benefits in the farm. The new Spirit 400C/S brings great seeding precision, user-friendly electronics and a high field performance to the 13' (4-metre) seed drill segment.

Väderstad, one of the world’s leading companies in soil cultivation and seeding technology, is preparing for its upcoming CEO succession. In February 2022, Henrik Gilstring will take over as President and CEO. Henrik represents the third generation of the owner family and is currently part of Group Management.

In October, Väderstad’s new high technology material lab will open in Överum.

– With this venture we will consolidate our position as a world leading manufacturer of wear parts, says Dan Somlin, CEO of Väderstad Components.

Väderstad Components, a subsidiary of the Väderstad Group, manufactures key wearing parts for Väderstad’s agricultural machinery. During the past two years the company has been investing in rebuilding and expanding the factory and creating a new production line. To meet the increased demand for genuine parts, the factory is now being expanded by a further 2,000 m2.

To increase planting performance even further, Väderstad introduces the new unique stop wheel Väderstad ProStop. Thanks to its innovative design, ProStop delivers an excellent seed-to-soil contact at very high planting speed.

By releasing a new free update of the app for the iPad-based control system Väderstad E-Control, Väderstad increases the user experience in the field. Now, the farmer can find and download manuals, spare part documentation and QuickStart movies integrated in the control system.

Due to the current situation around the world we want to be extra respectful and careful when supporting our customers.
