KUHN MONTANA

What KUHN MONTANA does

KUHN Brasil is the Brazilian subsidiary of French agricultural-implement manufacturer KUHN Group (founded 1828), operating in Brazil since approximately 2004 with headquarters in São José dos Pinhais, Paraná, and a second manufacturing plant in Passo Fundo, Rio Grande do Sul. The company manufactures and distributes a full-line portfolio of agricultural implements — mechanical and pneumatic seeders, planters, fertilizer spreaders (mounted, trailed, and self-propelled), agricultural and orchard sprayers, grain carts, soil preparation equipment (leveling blades, stubble cultivators, scarifiers, subsoilers), hay and forage equipment (mowers, tedders, rakes, balers), and livestock feed mixers — serving grain/row-crop producers, livestock operators, rice farmers, fruit growers, and hay/forage producers across Brazil.

Underlying technology centers on proprietary mechanical and electronic systems, including the patented Airflow pneumatic distribution system for homogeneous seed/fertilizer deposition with self-cleaning rotors (coefficient of variation below 5%), the ISOBUS-standardized electronics platform enabling interoperability with any tractor brand, the Steady Control hydraulic system for constant working depth on stubble cultivators, and the KUHN Connect telemetry platform that collects GPS, speed, and operational data from field machinery. The company does not publish APIs or developer SDKs.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time hardware sales of implements and machinery, complemented by recurring genuine-parts revenue and after-sales service through the MyKUHN digital portal. Distribution is exclusively through an authorized dealer network across Brazil, supported by in-house financing (KUHN Finance) and partnerships with regional cooperatives such as Coplacana and Unicampo; no public retail pricing is disclosed. Go-to-market combines the dealer channel with heavy trade-show presence at major Brazilian agricultural fairs (Agrishow, Bahia Farm Show, Expodireto Cotrijal, Coplacampo, Show Safra, Agroleite, Interleite) and digital channels including Instagram, LinkedIn, the MyKUHN portal, and an email newsletter.
