Carrfields is pleased to announce that AGCO Corporation has appointed it as the new authorised Fendt IDEAL combine dealer across New Zealand from the 5th of January 2026, strengthening its commitment to delivering world-class harvesting solutions to local farmers and contractors. This nationwide dealership agreement will ensure customers have access to the full range of Fendt IDEAL combine harvesters, backed by Carrfields' expert product knowledge, parts and quality customer service.
This appointment marks a significant milestone for both organisations, bringing together Fendt’s industry-leading harvesting technology with Carrfields’ deep understanding of New Zealand arable farming needs, including the importance of backup parts and service support that Carrfields has been known for over many decades. These combines can harvest a variety of arable crops, including specialist small seeds all proven by AGCOs specialist combine team in NZ conditions over the last two seasons.
Carrfields also continues to offer the MacDon range as part of its harvesting equipment lineup, featuring high-performance products designed to make crop harvesting more efficient and productive. The MacDon portfolio includes advanced windrowers (swathers) and draper headers, such as the industry-leading FlexDraper series, engineered to handle a wide variety of crops in diverse field conditions.
The launch event was held at the newly purchased “Spring Farm”, the new Carrfields research facility, which showcased the Fendt IDEAL Combine, MacDon fronts and a range of HORSCH products all focused on arable farming. This event featured key speakers from AGCO and MacDon, as well as machinery specialists from Carrfields, allowing customers to see the specialised equipment firsthand and ask questions.
Craig Carr, Group Managing Director of Carrfields, said, “Our Spring Farm event gave us the perfect opportunity to showcase these premium machines to our loyal customers over many generations. We are committed to offering the best machinery options available for New Zealand conditions, and Fendt IDEAL and MacDon certainly do that in our harvesting machinery portfolio.”
“We are confident that we can find the perfect harvesting option for any arable farming operation. Carrfields welcomes the opportunity to provide on-farm demonstrations to any interested farmers.”
