Agricultural logistics are facing major challenges.
With around 520 million tonnes transported annually, the agricultural sector is the second most intensive transport industry in Germany.
The importance of agricultural logistics is constantly growing – as are the requirements.

 

The industry is currently characterised by the following developments:

 

 

  • Shortage of skilled labour: It is becoming increasingly difficult to find qualified drivers. Whereas in the past almost any combination of tractor and trailer was sent on its way, today trained drivers and specialised transport solutions are in demand.
  • Structural change: The number of farms is falling and collection points are closing, resulting in longer transport distances. There are now greater distances between the remaining farms and the centralised storage facilities, resulting in rising transport costs and longer farm-to-field distances.
  • Climate change and ecological requirements: Growing environmental awareness and climate change demand more efficient and sustainable transport methods in order to minimise environmental impact.
  • Increasing cost awareness: Rising transport costs require precise calculation and increase the need for cost-efficient logistics solutions.
  • Increasing harvest volumes and shortened harvest windows: Advances in crop breeding are increasing yields while also shortening harvest times. This means that larger quantities have to be transported in a shorter time.

KRONE is aware of these challenges and offers customised solutions for every need.
Agricultural logistics are diverse and individual – what is transported depends on the specific requirements of each farm.

Our expertise and advice are designed to find the optimum transport solutions for a wide variety of goods:

 

  • Different goods: Diverse products require different transport methods. From heavy and free-flowing cereals to sensitive potatoes and beet – KRONE offers solutions which fulfil these requirements. 
  • Different conditions: Whether short or long distances, roads or fields, narrow access roads or extensive areas – every agricultural environment brings its own logistical challenges.    
  • By opting for KRONE AgriLogistics farmers are relying on one of the leading specialists in the agricultural transport sector. Our products – from the KRONE GX AgriLiner through to the KNAPEN KX moving floor trailer and Schwarzmüller SX large scale trough – are equipped for every requirement. Together with our partners, KRONE offers the optimum solution for efficient, innovative and professional transport technology.
