Degelman Strawmaster Euro: Specs & Overview

The Degelman Strawmaster Euro is the European-market version of Degelman’s long-running straw harrow, built around a double-tine design and metric working widths for the requirements of large-scale operations overseas. It shares the Strawmaster DNA โ€” Degelman has produced straw harrows since 1993 โ€” but it is configured and marketed for Europe, not the North American prairie. The key figures are converted to imperial below, with a clear note on where this model sits for a Canadian buyer.

A Note for Canadian Buyers

The Strawmaster Euro is sold into the European market and its specs are published in metric, with model names (Strawmaster 30, 54 NT, 62 NT) referencing metric working widths. For most Canadian operations, the machines actually carried through prairie dealers are the Strawmaster Pro, X, + and the classic 7000 Series โ€” those are the models built and specced for North American conditions, horsepower and transport regulations. Use this page as reference for what the Euro is; for shopping in Western Canada, start with the four North American models and confirm current availability with a dealer.

What the Strawmaster Euro Is Built to Do

Degelman positions the Euro as a simple, cost-effective solution for stubble management. The stated benefits are time savings through high working speed and wide widths, durability and long service life, and low operating costs โ€” less wear, less fuel. Like the rest of the family it handles straw distribution and stimulates germination, and paired with mounted spreaders it can also sow cover crops. Working speed is roughly 12 mph, in line with the North American Strawmaster machines.

The chassis height adjusts independently without changing the horizontal position of the tine segments, and centrally suspended segments distribute tine pressure evenly. Spring-steel connections let the machine follow uneven terrain โ€” the same contouring philosophy as the rest of the Strawmaster range.

What Makes the Euro Different

Double-Tine Design

The defining difference from the North American Strawmaster machines is the double-tine configuration, with tine counts running from 60 up to 155 depending on model and row choice. This is the European approach to straw harrowing โ€” more, finer tines for a different finishing character than the longer, heavier single carbide tines on the Pro and + .

Narrow Metric Transport

At roughly 9 feet 10 inches transport width, the Euro is built around European road regulations, which are tighter than North American allowances. That narrow transport is an advantage in Europe and simply a different design target than the 12-to-18-foot transport widths of the prairie machines.

Best Applications

The Strawmaster Euro fits European operations needing cost-effective stubble management and cover-crop establishment within tighter road-width regulations. For a Canadian audience it serves mainly as reference, illustrating Degelman’s global straw-harrow expertise.

It’s not the right fit for a Canadian buyer shopping locally โ€” the Strawmaster 7000 Series, + or Pro are the models engineered and supported for Western Canadian fields.

How It Compares to Other Strawmaster Models

The Euro is a parallel product line rather than a step on the North American ladder. Its closest North American relative in role is the classic Strawmaster 7000 Series โ€” both are residue-focused straw harrows at moderate horsepower โ€” but the double-tine design, metric sizing and narrow transport make it a distinct machine for a different market. A Canadian buyer comparing options should weigh the 7000 Series, the + or the Pro rather than the Euro.

Frequently Asked Questions

Three models: Strawmaster 30 (~30 ft), Strawmaster 54 NT (~54 ft) and Strawmaster 62 NT (~62 ft).

What is the double-tine design?

It’s the European configuration of finer, more numerous tines โ€” 60 to 155 depending on model and rows โ€” giving a different finishing character than the longer single carbide tines on the North American machines.

How much horsepower does the Strawmaster Euro need?

From 175 hp minimum on the Strawmaster 30 up to 350 hp on the Strawmaster 62 NT.

Why is the transport width so narrow?

At about 9 feet 10 inches, it’s built around European road regulations, which are tighter than North American allowances.

Which North American model is the Euro most like?

The classic Strawmaster 7000 Series โ€” both are residue-focused straw harrows at moderate horsepower โ€” though the Euro is a distinct machine built for a different market.

Can the Strawmaster Euro sow cover crops?

Yes. Paired with mounted spreaders it can distribute straw, stimulate germination and sow cover crops.

What working speed does the Strawmaster Euro run at?

Roughly 12 mph, in line with the North American Strawmaster machines.
