THE TRACKER 4000 GAINS MOMENTUM

Belleville-en-Beaujolais, november 8th 2025. Berthoud expands its Tracker range with a new 4,000-litre version, developed based on feedback and needs expressed by users. True to the Tracker’s reputation for versatility and durability, this evolution provides a concrete response to farmers seeking increased productivity and optimized field time. Its compact design and well-balanced weight distribution continue to ensure outstanding stability and optimal maneuverability in all working conditions;

MAXIMUM SPRAYING APPLICATION PRECISION THANKS TO PNEUMATIC NOZZLE-BY-NOZZLE SHUTOFF
To ensure perfectly uniform spraying performance across the entire plot, the Tracker 4000 now offers an optional pneumatic nozzle-by-nozzle shutoff system — a direct response to feedback from the field.
By eliminating overdosed and underdosed areas, this system improves treatment efficiency while reducing the consumption of plant protection products — a major economic and environmental benefit.
Automatically eliminating overlaps at headlands or when resuming work, this technology allows each nozzle to be individually controlled by a compressed-air system that instantly opens or closes spraying as required.Connected to a GPS or ISOBUS terminal, the system activates only the nozzles needed at each moment of the pass.
Berthoud also offers a more economical version of the option — maintaining high application quality — with a section control every meter.
The Tracker 4000 benefits from this technology on a selection of Axiale and Axiale B3 booms, with 2- or 3-fold folding options, available in widths from 24 to 33 meters.

COMFORT AND STABILITY BOTH IN THE FIELD AND ON THE ROAD THANKS TO THE NEW STEERING AXLE
For enhanced stability and steering precision, particularly on headlands, the Tracker 4000 also offers an optional gyroscope-controlled steering axle.
This intelligent guidance system analyzes trajectory variations in real time and automatically adjusts the orientation of the rear wheels according to tractor movements.
Combined with the ACS option, which manages boom height, spray shutoff, and steering axle activation at the end of the field, automation is complete.
The steering axle can also be activated to limit boom sway and drift, especially on uneven or sloping terrain.

HIGH-FLOW SPRAY CIRCUIT FOR GREATER CAPACITY
To meet intensive application needs requiring high flow rates — particularly for nitrogen fertilization — the 4,000-litre Tracker version offers a dedicated configuration equipped with the Hardi 330 l/min pump.
This self-priming diaphragm pump is designed for high-volume applications (300 to 350 l/ha), for example with liquid nitrogen.
Robust and easy to maintain, the pump’s moving parts are completely isolated from the circulating liquid, ensuring that no chemicals ever come into contact with mechanical components.
Fully grease-lubricated, it eliminates any risk of oil leakage, guaranteeing higher reliability and simplified maintenance. It can even run dry without damage in the event of diaphragm failure.
For everyday crop protection applications, the Tracker range continues to feature the proven and reliable BP 280 pump as standard, suitable for all routine spraying operations.

NEW DESIGN FOR EASIER MAINTENANCE
The new hoods of the Tracker 4000 have been designed to provide easier access and maintenance.
A patented system allows the rinsing tank to be lifted, giving safe and convenient access to the pump for servicing.
During operation, the valves and pump assembly located behind the rinsing tank is protected from spray and mud projections.
In terms of styling, the Tracker 4000 adopts a new chassis and boom color scheme with a more modern and distinctive look, while preserving its DNA through the iconic tank color that makes it instantly recognizable.
