New Holland Showcases Vineyard Equipment at Sitevinitech 2026

New Holland Agriculture, a CNH brand, presented vineyard harvesting and agricultural machinery solutions during Sitevinitech 2026, held from 12–14 May in Mendoza. Participating alongside its regional dealer Agromaq Virdó, the company exhibited equipment and digital agriculture technologies designed for viticulture and regional crop production.

The exhibition focused on mechanized harvesting, specialty tractors, and connected agriculture systems intended to improve operational productivity, reduce fuel consumption, and support precision farming workflows in vineyard environments.

Vineyard harvesting systems for efficiency and monitoring
A central product displayed during the exhibition was the updated Braud 9070L grape harvester, developed for mechanized vineyard harvesting operations. According to New Holland, the machine incorporates improvements intended to increase harvesting efficiency while enhancing operator usability and machine monitoring capabilities.

The updated harvester includes reduced fuel consumption, operational management functions through the IMS 2.0 system, and the IntelliView IV display interface, which provides operators with access to machine operating parameters during field operations.

The machine also integrates with the FieldOps telemetry platform, enabling real-time performance monitoring and remote operational analysis. New Holland stated that its Central Intelligence monitoring system can support remote diagnostics and operational oversight intended to reduce downtime and maximize productive harvesting time.

Connected telemetry systems are increasingly being integrated into agricultural machinery to improve fleet visibility, optimize equipment utilization, and support predictive maintenance within broader digital supply chain operations in agriculture.

Specialty tractors for vineyard and horticultural operations
The company also displayed the TD4F tractor, designed for fruit and vegetable cultivation applications requiring maneuverability, hydraulic performance, and operational versatility in narrow-row agricultural environments.

The TD4F includes a three-point hydraulic Lift-O-Matic system with a maximum lifting capacity of 3,000 kg and hydraulic flow of 36.2 liters per minute. These specifications support operation of implements requiring rapid hydraulic response and precise control during cultivation and vineyard maintenance tasks.

Additional tractors displayed included the TT4, TK4, and TT3.50 models, extending the company’s offering across different operational scales and crop production requirements.

Specialty agricultural tractors are increasingly designed to support mechanized operations in vineyards and orchards where narrow operating spaces, terrain variability, and implement precision are critical operational considerations.

Digital agriculture and operator engagement
Within its 150-square-meter exhibition stand, New Holland also presented digital agriculture technologies focused on improving precision farming and operational productivity. Agricultural digitalization systems increasingly combine telemetry, machine diagnostics, and operational analytics to support data-driven farm management decisions.

Visitors were additionally able to experience Braud harvester operation through a virtual reality simulator designed to demonstrate machine functionality and harvesting workflows.

Technical presentations led by industry specialists were conducted throughout the event, alongside activities associated with the company’s Mujeres en Campaña initiative.

Mechanization trends in viticulture
Mechanized harvesting systems and connected agricultural equipment are becoming increasingly important in viticulture as producers seek to improve harvesting consistency, reduce labor dependency, and optimize operational efficiency.

Modern vineyard machinery is commonly evaluated based on fuel efficiency, harvesting quality, telemetry integration, hydraulic performance, and adaptability to varying vineyard conditions. Digital agriculture platforms are also becoming more central to precision crop management and operational planning across commercial agricultural operations.

New Holland stated that its participation in Sitevinitech 2026 was intended to strengthen engagement with wine producers and agricultural partners while demonstrating machinery technologies developed for regional agricultural economies.
