Feldklasse team in front of a rapeseed field

__ We take our time for development, because you don't have time in the field.

We know that you cannot afford downtime. That is why our hoeing machines are in a constant process of optimisation. We monitor this process very carefully and make high demands on our own quality. Here you can learn what else is characteristic of us.

Revolution & evolution

2023

In spring, the new warehouse and the building for prototype production will be occupied. In autumn, the assembly area will be set up in the expanded premises. This means Feldklasse will once again manufacture entirely in-house. Another milestone: the Zurama selective hoe will be delivered to the first pilot customers.

Feldklasse now also available for arable farming.
The Zurama selective hoe has successfully cleared the first fields of weeds and will be delivered in small numbers as test machines in 2023.

Record year: The turnover in 2022 was € 1.1 million

All or nothing. New name, new website, new corporate design. Feldklasse is fresh, colourful and multifaceted.

Going international: exciting sales projects in France and England – thus we transcend the borders of the DACH region.

The model for bed cultivation is added, optionally with automatic steering. The customer base is extended by large enterprises.

Official foundation, initially under the name of DULKS. In the sense of international understanding, André Dülks sacrifices the dots on the u.

On the Agritechnica exhibition, we present our hoes for ridge cultivation for the first time, and are met not with crusts, but with real interest.

Founder André Dülks wants to help a friend and rocket salad farmer to find the ideal hoeing technique. The spark that lit the fire.
Preparations are in full swing: developing a concept, testing a prototype on the parental farm, registering property rights, putting a team together.

What makes us happy is the quality of good agricultural products – and of our machines.

A small team with great ambitions: we at Feldklasse are not afraid of growing beyond ourselves. Agriculture has accompanied us from childhood. Later, we intensified this relation through professional training. Because we get along very well and work as one unit, we are more agile than others. Put us to the test!

All signs are pointing towards growth.
