After taking center stage at Agritechnica 2023, the CR11 combine is now making its greatly anticipated North America debut. Beginning next week on February 14 at the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, Kentucky, the CR11 combine kicks off its North America tour. The industry’s new high-capacity harvesting leader is embarking on a journey that will span stops at numerous industry and customer events across the U.S. and Canada. “Get ready, because the CR11 combine is hitting the road, making appearances from Louisville to Saskatoon and beyond,” says Curtis Hillen, combine marketing manager for New Holland. “The CR11 combine is more than a machine; it’s the new standard, redefining what we expect of combine capacity and production. This debut tour is an opportunity to experience the CR11 combine first-hand.”

Throughout the coming months, there will be opportunities to catch a glimpse, climb in the cab or take the CR11 combine for a test drive on its barnstorming tour of the U.S. and Canada.

Setting a New Standard for Harvest
Building on a 50-year legacy of New Holland harvesting innovation, from the creation of Twin Rotor® technology to setting a world record for harvesting, the CR11 combine is the biggest and most productive combine in any field. Designed from the ground up, the CR11 combine is built on four pillars – increased productivity, maximum grain savings, superior residue management and enhanced uptime – to help drive down the total cost of harvesting.
“With the expansion of farms and fields, the CR11 combine proves instrumental in enhancing efficiency during the limited harvest window,” explains Jordan Kambeitz, CEO and president of Kambeitz Farms in Lajord, Saskatchewan. “It offers greater capacity, minimized downtime and improved straw spread and chop patterns, resulting in reduced losses. Consequently, this allows us to operate with fewer combines and maximize our utilization of labor resources.”
