Updated Defensor Self-Propelled Sprayer Series from New Holland: Greater Productivity, Precision, and Efficiency

New Holland has introduced an updated generation of its Defensor self-propelled sprayers, focusing on increased productivity, improved weight distribution, optimized hydraulic performance, and reduced fuel consumption. The machines are designed for medium and large-scale farms where high daily field capacity, boom stability at higher speeds, and accurate crop protection product application are essential.

Enhanced Productivity and Operational Efficiency

The updated Defensor series features upgraded power units and an improved transmission system, allowing operators to maintain high working speeds without compromising spraying accuracy. Increased pump capacity and an optimized liquid delivery system ensure uniform application rates even under demanding field conditions.

Key advantages of the renewed lineup include:

• powerful and fuel-efficient engines;
• improved machine balance at full tank capacity;
• advanced boom stabilization system;
• integration with precision farming technologies.

As a result, Defensor sprayers deliver consistent performance across various soil types while maintaining accurate application rates and minimizing input losses.

Structural Improvements: Chassis, Clearance, and Stability

One of the defining features of the Defensor sprayers remains their high ground clearance, enabling treatment of tall crops without damage. The updated suspension system and reinforced chassis enhance flotation, reduce vibration, and improve field maneuverability.

Engineering refinements include:

• optimized weight distribution between axles;
• reduced soil compaction;
• improved turning capability on headlands;
• increased boom stability on uneven terrain.

This combination provides operators with a stable platform capable of working at higher speeds while preserving spray precision.

Precision Agriculture and Digital Integration

The updated Defensor models are fully compatible with New Holland’s precision farming systems. They support automatic section control, variable rate application, task map execution, and satellite-based guidance.

These features help:

• minimize overlaps;
• reduce crop protection product consumption;
• lower operational costs;
• improve field data management and traceability.

For large agricultural enterprises, this translates into measurable reductions in cost per hectare and more sustainable crop management practices.

Operator Comfort and Safety

The Defensor cab meets modern ergonomic standards, offering improved noise insulation, intuitive controls, and a user-friendly display interface. This ensures operator comfort during extended working hours.

Special attention has been given to air filtration systems and cab sealing, which are critical when handling chemical products. The improved working environment enhances both safety and efficiency in the field.

Reliability and Spare Parts Support

Self-propelled sprayers operate in harsh environments - dust, moisture, and exposure to aggressive chemicals. Timely replacement of wear parts and components is essential to ensure uninterrupted operation during peak spraying seasons.

In Ukraine, spare parts for sprayers, including components compatible with the Defensor series, can be purchased from BAS-Agro LLC (Cherkasy). A wide range of sprayer spare parts for various brands is available in the dedicated section: https://bas.ua/shop/spare-parts-for-sprayers-000000033-1

The company offers:

• pump and hydraulic system components;
• boom elements and mounting parts;
• nozzles, filters, and repair kits;
• custom manufacturing of parts according to drawings or samples.

This allows agricultural producers to quickly restore equipment performance and minimize seasonal downtime.

The updated Defensor self-propelled sprayer series from New Holland represents a comprehensive modernization approach: higher productivity, improved digital integration, enhanced boom stability, and superior operator comfort. The machines are designed for farms seeking maximum application efficiency with minimal resource loss.

Combined with reliable spare parts availability and technical support in Ukraine - including supply through BAS-Agro - these innovations provide confidence in long-term operational performance throughout the agricultural production cycle.
