Tiger gets its teeth into beet

The newest and biggest beet harvesters were on show in the ROPA Tiger 5, which won an award at the 2015 Sima show in Paris. The German-made harvester won the Machine of the Year award in the potato and sugar beet- handling category.

The Machine of the Year selections are made by independent agricultural journalists representing European trade magazines.

The Tiger 5 has an oscillating front axle and two hydraulically supported rear axles, to reduce sway by one third.
