Kverneland is using Cereals 2026 to introduce a new fertiliser spreader to the UK market.
Called Alentix, this all-new twin-disc fertiliser spreader is described as having enhanced technology and greater spreading performance.
Cereals 2026 is the UK’s flagship arable event where industry knowledge, innovation and expertise come together to help improve the future for arable farmers.
This year, Cereals is taking place from June 10-11 at the Diddly Squat farm owned by farmer and television presenter, Jeremy Clarkson.
The flagship of its spreader portfolio, Alentix sits above the Exacta TL, and provides another option for those seeking the highest accuracy and efficiency possible with bagged fertilisers.
An Isobus machine, Alentix has a hopper capacity of up to 4,700L and a spread width of up to 54m.
Hopper extensions are no longer bolted together, but clip together, which Kverneland said makes it easy to add or remove as required.
Application accuracy is managed with four weigh cells working in combination with a dual reference sensor to maintain the desired flow rate, which can be from 0-550kg/min, as a result of an all-new dosing system called Rapid Rate.
Kverneland has said that Rapid Rate uses a square-shaped aperture mechanism that provides faster regulation of application rates, to meet the demands of variable rate applications.
Also, MultiRate applies multiple rates across the chosen working width.
The spreader is available with mechanical PTO or iDC hydraulic drivelines.
The innovations include a two-piece spreading disc, which is said to simplify disc changes when swapping between the different types of eight-vane disc now available; and honeycomb profile hopper grids offering improved material flow.
The spreader’s rear panel can be folded down to create a walkway across the rear of the hopper, while an integrated quick-hitch is aimed at making coupling and uncoupling safer and easier.
Alentix includes Sync data transfer and can be used with either the Tellus 700 or 1200 terminals, or any AEF-certified universal terminal.
The new fertiliser spreader, Alentix, is priced from £42,305 for the UK market.
