Dewulf, a leading name in the landscape of machinery for the cultivation of potatoes and root crops, was nominated for and just missed out on the Exporter of the Year 2023 Award at the Flanders International Business Awards in the Sky Hall of Brussels Airport. Organiser Flanders Investment and Trade (FIT) introduced redesigned awards this year, which featured the Exporter of the Year prize in addition to the Start-up and Foreign Investor categories.

The 2023 edition of Potato Europe took place in Kain (Doornik), Belgium, last week. There, the full-liner in potato cultivation machines unveiled innovations in its product lines for both planting and storage.

In keeping with the four-yearly tradition, one of the potato sector's most important trade fairs will soon again be held in Kain (Doornik), Belgium. Dewulf is pleased to announce it will be attending the 2023 edition of Potato Europe and is happy to add that it will be presenting two major innovations to the general public. The full-liner in potato technology will show visitors an extensive range of machines, both at stand 14 and in the demonstration area.

The sector-wide preference for planting and ridging in one working pass has never been greater. Dewulf has been responding to this demand for several years with the Smart-Float principle. The technique was first used on the CP 42 cup planter (75 cm) and is now also available for the Structural 4000 belt planter. Using Smart-Float, the planter actively and continuously maintains a constant working depth of soil cultivation and planting.

Dewulf, full-liner in machines for the cultivation of potatoes and root crops, proudly presents the second generation of its 4-row top lifting harvester: the ZKIV(SE). The updated, powerful ZKIV excels, among other things, with extended cleaning features, a brand new elevator with hydraulic extension, and the ability to harvest now also at narrow row distances (less than 40 cm).
