Väderstad, one of the world’s leading companies in tillage, seeding and planting, has now produced number 1000 of the high precision planter Tempo L. The Tempo L made an immediate impact on world farming when it set the world record in planting back in 2017.

In 1962 Rune Stark and his wife Siw founded Rune's mechanical workshop on the small family farm. The rest is agricultural history. Rune passed away in 2008, but his memory lives on strongly and today, March 4, 2021, he would have turned 100.

Väderstad, one of the world’s leading companies in tillage and planting, has grown strongly in recent years. In 2022 a new Factory center will be ready in Väderstad, an investment of SEK 125 million.

Väderstad, one of the world’s leading companies in tillage and planting, is once again producing a strong financial result during the financial year 2020. Despite a year heavily marked by Covid-19 and two extra weeks of production stoppages, Väderstad reaches a new record turnover of SEK 3.4 billion and improves earnings by 23 percent compared to the previous year.

In 2021, Väderstad takes the next step for the high-speed Tempo planter by introducing a new model to the Tempo L family. The all-new Tempo L 32 will be the largest Tempo planter to date. 

Väderstad introduces the new 80/120mm point, built in high-quality Swedish steel. The 80/120mm point delivers an aggressive cultivation, combined with a very intensive mixing. It can be fitted to the tine cultivators Cultus, Opus and TopDown.

We are very pleased to announce our 5 years interest free finance on all new RexiusTwin 450-1030 orders.

Väderstad updates the pneumatic seed drill Spirit 400C/S, to provide added benefits in the farm. The new Spirit 400C/S brings great seeding precision, user-friendly electronics and a high field performance to the 4-metre seed drill segment.

Väderstad, one of the world’s leading companies in soil cultivation and seeding technology, is preparing for its upcoming CEO succession. In February 2022, Henrik Gilstring will take over as President and CEO. Henrik represents the third generation of the owner family and is currently part of Group Management.

In October, Väderstad’s new high technology material lab will open in Överum.

– With this venture we will consolidate our position as a world leading manufacturer of wear parts, says Dan Somlin, CEO of Väderstad Components.
