Agriculture

Keeping things moving, from farm to fork. Transporting agricultural cargo, like livestock or grain, over long distances and at times through tough terrain, requires trucks to be fuel or energy efficient, run smoothly on or off the road, and provide drivers with the right comfort, safety, and performance. Here you can find the solutions to your agriculture transport challenges.

Keeping loads high and safe

On the farm or the highway, transporting a heavy, sensitive load is a constant balancing act. To protect cargo and make every kilo count, you’ll need trucks that can be modified to weigh less, and respond with precision and stability to handle tough terrain.

Ready for seasonal peaks

Seasonal peaks in agricultural transport create sudden spikes in demand and capacity strain, driving up costs and logistical complexity. You’ll need flexible service contracts and maintenance schedules based on the use of the truck, to keep you competitive and productive.

Powering trucks to be economical

With volatile fuel costs and the demand for more sustainable transport solutions, it’s never been more important to have a range of drivelines - not to mention services and specialized training for drivers to help them save fuel or energy.

Load up, stay stable, and save fuel or energy

Discover solutions for high load capacity over long distances, fuel or energy saving services, and flexible alternatives to meet seasonal demands.

Highly responsive even when the weight piles on

Transporting heavy or sensitive cargo over long distances and across uneven terrain pushes trucks to their limits. They need to have high payload capacity while staying stable and responsive when conditions get tough.

Our trucks can be configured to weigh less - from chassis to axles - helping you increase your payload potential. And with features that let the truck move from a standstill even under extreme loads, the risk of getting stuck on a muddy farm is low.

With a choice of drivelines, tailored chassis, and innovative features and services, you’ll be ready to get the most out of every working day.

More payload possibilities

Many of our trucks can be modified to reduce weight so you can maximize payload. With a Volvo FH, for example, specified with lightweight components, you get a lighter truck that’s ready to carry more.

Control when you need it

With Volvo Dynamic Steering, drivers can maneuver at low speeds as well as drive over longer distances with less strain on the shoulders. Improving productivity and safety, the system automatically gives assistance when a front tire is punctured, and works together with Stability Assist for light assistance when a skid is detected.

Tackling heavy loads and tough terrain

I-Shift helps you get the best out of your powertrain and aids very low speed maneuvering. Within this range of automated transmissions, you can get low and ultra-low crawler gears, Terrain Brake, tailored software for startability with reduced clutch wear, and one-pedal driving when shifting between forward and reverse.

Built to handle the load - and the consumption

Farming doesn’t stop for rising fuel costs or long shifts. When you’re moving grain, feed, or livestock, full payloads and tight delivery slots come with the territory.

We offer trucks that give you the power you need, but with low to zero tailpipe emissions. Connected digital services and smart design features help reduce your consumption and monitor and calculate how much fuel you’re using.

Designed to save energy

With its aerodynamic shape and the Camera Monitor System that replaces large mirrors with smaller camera arms, the Volvo FH Aero is designed to reduce costs and your carbon footprint. Choose from diesel, gas-powered, or electric.

Seasonal fuel use analysis 

With the Fuel and Environment service you can plan and optimize how to improve fuel consumption, which becomes even more relevant during high peak agricultural periods. With detailed environmental data, the service can also track emissions to support sustainable farming initiatives.

Gas-powered trucks

Are you aiming for a smaller CO2 footprint, high performance, and a long operating range? We offer alternative drivelines to match your agriculture operations. Explore our gas-powered trucks, using LNG or CNG – produced from either biogas or natural gas depending on availability.

Meeting seasonal peak demands

Seasonal peaks put pressure on transport operators, increasing the need for trucks that can be sourced quickly and efficiently.

You’ll need proactive solutions that clearly show your truck’s availability to potential agricultural customers during peak periods - plus real-time data on the status of your truck, so you know when they’re ready to roll.

Farm management system integration

The Data Access service shares vehicle data with agricultural software, improving field operations and resource planning. You can generate a seasonal performance analysis that provides detailed tracking of vehicle usage and efficiency during peak periods.

Seasonal work tracking

With the Driver Times service, driver hours can be monitored during peak agricultural periods. This can help with compliance and fair compensation and resource planning, by supporting efficient allocation of applicable drivers during busy seasons.

Predictive maintenance

In Volvo Connect you can find digital uptime services like the Tire Monitoring Service and Vehicle Status that provide real-time data on the condition of your truck. Helping you predict service needs helps to reduce unplanned stops, improve safety, and get the most out of every journey.
