Kverneland is world renowned and unequalled in producing robust & light ploughs for high performance with low operating costs. Innovation from the start In 1879 at the age of 25, Ole Gabriel Kverneland founded his smithy business in a small village south of Stavanger, Norway. Brought up on a farm and educated in agriculture, he subsequently understood all the machinery requirements of farmers. He strongly believed in innovation and manage to produce a mouldboard plough able to withstand the very tough stony soil conditions of Norway. Over the years, he together with his team of engineers developed special steel heat treatment processes to allow his ploughs to work in the toughest of soil. Using these new steels of unique strength, Kverneland succeeded in manufacturing robust ploughs thus gaining a strong reputation for quality. Today, Kverneland is the leading manufacturer of ploughs with a very strong market position throughout the world.
