On Tuesday, July 2nd, the Kverneland Group Sweden team embarked on an attempt to break the world record at the Bro Godås farm in Säffle, Sweden. The goal was to achieve the highest number of bales produced during 24 hours of continuous work.
To prepare, 100 hectares of wrapped forage were pre-cut. At 5:00 PM, Oscar Svantesson Mander began the challenge using a 240 HP tractor and the latest combination of baler and wrapper, the Kverneland Non-Stop “Kverneland FastBale Premium.” The attempt resulted in a world record of 1,587 wrapped bales.
The record was achieved under complete practical conditions, including travel times between fields, machine maintenance, and the replacement of net and film, all of which were counted in the total baling time.
Frankelius from Linköping University (Agtech Sweden) witnessed the attempt. Using the new telematic system “Kverneland Sync,” he and the team members were constantly updated on the machine’s critical parameters and performance indicators through the digital platform “Kverneland FarmCentre.”

A remarkable record: nearly 1.1 bales per minute were achieved over 24 hours! This is a true demonstration of how Kverneland FastBale Premium operates, continuously producing and wrapping bales without stopping.
