The largest and most important agricultural exhibition in the Western Balkans and Southeastern Europe will take place from May 15 to 21 in Novi Sad, Serbia. 

The exhibition brings together every year the most important trade visitors, agricultural organizations and agricultural processing companies, who will present goods and services from over 50 countries worldwide. 

The company Continental Agricultural Machinery will present its machines, in collaboration with the company Agroitalija Group in Stand 87.

The company Continental, monitoring developments in the agricultural sector and the needs of farmers for  more economical spraying presents you the new precision spraying series of the Italian Company ARAG.

Bravo 180S spray computer

The Bravo 180S is a precision calculator that can be applied to all sprays Continental (Arboriculture and open cultivation) offering very high performance and reducing to a minimum the operating costs of the spraying process. It offers excellent precision and efficiency, designed to control all the necessary functions during spraying. It is easy to use, placed close to the operator and connected to the sprayer's electric control, using a single cable.

Features:

•  Systematically adjusts the spray pressure to maintain the pre-selected dosage
• Possibility of instantly increasing or decreasing the spray dosage
• Automatic tank calibration via flowmeter
• Flow or pressure adjustment via indicator (with sensor)
• Automatic shut-off below minimum set pressure to ensure nozzles always operate within their operating range
• Deactivation of the main valve below the minimum speed set by the user
• Temporary increase and decrease in supply
• Version with use and for hydraulic movement of the ramp

Technical characteristics:

• Visual and audible warnings
• Ability to store ten work configurations (spray dosage, etc.) and delete if necessary
• Multilingual software and measurement unit settings (l/ha, GPA, GPK, l/100m etc.)
• Displayed information: application rate, speed, pressure, flow rate, spray amount, tank level, area covered, spray duration, distance covered.

Navigator LT

The Navigator LT it is a screen GPS with built-in receiver for application to any type of sprayer Continental.

Features

• 5.7″ high-definition and bright TFT color screen
• User-friendly menu, function and zoom keys and built-in help menu for instant access
• Two camera inputs
• SD memory card slot for data transfer and software upgrades
• 2GB internal memory for storing jobs, maps, machines and tractors
• Interconnection with Glonass satellites, ensuring proper operation even in difficult conditions, such as in installations or buildings
• Colored application zone
• Calculation of field perimeter and area
• Alignment function for use in row crops (corn, sugar beet, cotton, etc.)
•  Memorizing a work stoppage point 
•  Line number display, distance and graphical direction display for returning to   
   work stoppage point
• Choice of day or night operation
• Graphical representation of completed work with display of start and completion points
• Available guidance modes: Parallel, curves, rotation and free
• Export work data in Shape format
• Permanent indications on the screen: deviation from the desired route, route number, speed 
  movement, direction, applied area, calculated area and field perimeter
• GPS data displayed: latitude, longitude, altitude, number of satellites in 
  connection, HDOP level and DGPS activation or not
• Selectable units of measurement: international system (ha, km/h), and US (acre, mph)
• Power supply: 12V DC

H Continental presenting innovative spraying methods in the agricultural sector, we recommend the electrostatic ionized copper system AgroHalc of the company AFS SA, with with whom we have the pleasure of collaborating.

The system AgroHalc can be placed in any sprayer Continental and convert conventional spraying into electrostatic achieving more effective spraying and more conservative use of pesticides.

The AgroHalc, creates positive copper ions Cu++, which are attracted to the negatively charged surfaces of leaves, trees, insects, resulting in increased adhesion and effectiveness of the plant protection products used.

The dual synergistic action, on the one hand of electrostatically charged copper ions and on the other hand of plant protection products, is the ideal combination for increasing and improving qualitative and quantitative production.

Applications in:

It is suitable for any type of spraying (fungicide, herbicide, insecticide) in any type of crop (vines, olive trees, apricot trees, cherries, pear trees, apple trees, kiwis, outdoor vegetables, tomatoes, strawberries, asparagus, greenhouses, flower gardens, nurseries, tree crops, etc.)

The AgroORalcohol It is exported to European countries such as Italy and Spain, with particularly encouraging results that tend to establish it as an essential means for more efficient spraying.

Advantages of AgroHalc

1. Increases adhesion
2. Creates uniform dispersion
3. It is also attached to the back of the leaves
4. Reduces pathogens
5. Increases healthy production
6. Reduces heavy pesticide dosages and therefore production costs
7. Reduces soil contamination
8. Reduces spraying time by 10-15%
9. Reduces deposits in pipes
10. Reduces nozzle problems
11. improves the quality and quantity of production
12. Maintains intense color in leaves and products
13. Extends the lifespan of products
14. Used in all stages of cultivation
15. The purchase cost is amortized over a short period

Technical details

• The AgroHalc consists of:

1. A portable electronic panel (200X300X120mm) which produces weak direct current which, through cables, ends up in copper electrodes. The panel is powered by the 12V battery of the agricultural machine or by a 220V transformer.
2. An ionization chamber containing the copper electrodes. The tubular chamber ends in two threads, to be properly fitted onto the water recirculation pipe (return) of the agricultural machine.

• By adjusting the duration of electrolysis we can achieve different concentrations of copper ions in the spray content from very low (0.5ppm) below EU safety limits for drinking water (<2ppm) to much higher ones.
• The AgroORalcohol easily adapts to any sprayer Continental.

OR Continental, a company manufacturing agricultural machinery with a history of 50 years, is exhibiting its products and services tomorrow, February 1st, at the Thessaloniki International Fair. You will find a very wide range of agricultural products in destroyers and sprays with the guarantee of Continental.

With a renewed corporate identity and a wide range of products, we are ready to present our products to you. Specifically, for the exhibition we have reconstructed the first destroyer Greek made  model F-175, which was very successful in its time and serves as a benchmark for our company.

Come and get to know each other up close, let us introduce you to our company and products, all the new innovative solutions for savings and efficiency.
