Germany · Agricultural business of the KRONE Group
KRONE Agriculture is the agricultural machinery business of the German KRONE Group, based in Spelle. It supplies machinery for the whole forage chain, from grassland to storage: mowers, tedders, rakes, balers and wrappers, forage and transport wagons, and self-propelled forage harvesters, alongside digital tools. The portfolio ranges from tractor-operated equipment to large self-propelled machines. The wider KRONE Group also runs a commercial vehicle business, which is separate from agriculture.
KRONE's machines are built around forage conservation, whether for silage, hay or straw, and around the organisation of the complete harvest. Output depends on the whole process: a highly productive machine needs enough transport, receiving capacity and operators to match it. The company sells across Europe, North America and other regions, and supports customers with digital services through its mykrone.green platform, serving dairy and livestock farms, forage producers, biogas operators and contractors.
Size of the business
KRONE's agricultural machinery sales were EUR 845.7 million in 2024/25. The entire KRONE Group, including commercial vehicles, reported approximately EUR 2.3 billion.
Are KRONE road trailers part of KRONE Agriculture?
No. Road trailers belong to the group's commercial vehicle business, which is separate from KRONE Agriculture in its products and financial figures.
Will a larger forage harvester always shorten the harvest?
No. Transport, receiving capacity, field conditions or operator availability can be limiting factors, so the capacity of the complete process is what matters.
