Stara held an event to present the new Guapita seeder

Stara has always been seeking constant evolution and the best technologies to help the farmer accomplish positive results in the crop field. And the company once more surprises everyone with the launching of Guapita, a seeder for winter crops with a bunch of remarkable features. It was officially presented during the 12^th Stara Reseller and Dealer Convention on April 13^th. The equipment has positively surprised the farmers since then.

In June, the seeder demonstrations started for the customers so they could meet it and see by themselves the power and advantages of this new technology.

In total, 56 events are programmed to take place at the dealers’ and reseller’ shops in the states of Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and Paraná until October. The events have been prepared with love by the Stara Family and are known for providing joy and creating expectations to know a launching product first-hand.

Those who have already met Guapita, approved it! Check out some testimonies:

“The main difference on the new Guapita is the transport mode. It helps a lot, especially in our area since the roads are hard to access. The onboard technology, the possibility to follow it even if you’re not close to it. Additionally, it is possible to see every row unit on the mobile phone to monitor how the planter management is.

Farmer Gyandre Ceolin – from Jóia/RS – Ruddel dealer (Ijuí/RS)

“Guapita is an interesting implement with a measured size and is well planned. The technology is suitable for the farmer who doesn’t have Topper. The center wheelset prevents the implement from traveling over the planted area. In addition to the central seed hopper, which is innovative and practical.”

Farmer Cristiano Bevilaqua and Stara commercial representative Alessandro Hoose – from Pontão/RS – Ikona dealer (Passo Fundo/RS).

“Stara is leading, always innovating and surprising. This is what agribusiness needs – innovation and technology. For example, if I load 150 kg of seeds and 120 kg is planted, it warns me. This is technology. We need quality planting. I think this winter planter evolution is fantastic. I couldn’t imagine it would be provided so fast.”

Farmer Euzébio Machri – from Santo Antônio do Planalto/RS – Plantiagro dealer (Carazinho/RS).
