Early start to the 2025 mowing season – with full respect for nature

Although the bird nesting season is still ongoing in many areas, we have already started mowing the first plots of natural land for 2025. And this is early – even by our standards. Such an exceptionally early start is only possible after thorough ecological assessment and explicit clearance by the client.

Miscanthus Harvest: Flexible Deployment from Friesland to Denmark

At De Vries Cornjum BV, flexibility is in our DNA. Even outside the traditional reed season, we do not hesitate to load our equipment and head to Denmark to harvest a field of miscanthus. Our reed mowing machine, normally used for reed, once again proves its versatility: we process this robust grass species smoothly and efficiently.

Lighter mowing with helium-filled tracks

At De Vries Cornjum BV, we’re always looking ahead. In our search for even more soil-friendly solutions for nature management, we’ve tested a bold and promising idea: filling the steel tracks of our machines with helium gas.

A Busy and Successful Winterseason 2025 Behind Us!

With the breeding season approaching, we look back on an intensive, challenging, and successful period. Over the past months, our colleagues have worked with dedication to maintain wetlands, reed fields, and delicate natural areas. From mowing and gathering reeds to transporting bales to our customers – it has been a season full of hard work and craftsmanship.

Reed mowing in full swing: season 2025 is coming to an end, but we are not done

The reed mowing season is nearing its end, but we are still going full throttle. As the days grow longer, we make the most of every opportunity to get the job done. Fortunately, the weather is on our side, which means we can keep making progress! Tomorrow, we will even be out with three machines at once to harvest as much reed as possible. Long days and busy weeks – but nothing is more rewarding than coming home satisfied after a day in nature.

Seizoen 2023: Wij zijn klaar voor de natuur!

The mowing season 2023 has begun! After months of tinkering and building new machines, we're eager to get started. Our machines, crafted for wetland environments, will soon be seen everywhere, not just in the Benelux but beyond.

HANDOVER | DVC OEM Reed Mower 2022

Last Saturday the delivery of the machine to the customer at our premises. All in all, another satisfied customer and a machine that exceeded expectations. Based on our latest generation Kingfisher tracked tractor, but specifically geared towards reed mowing. Now the final finishing touches before we proceed to deliver and commission the machine.

A few key points in a row:

Demo day East Germany

Thanks in part to our own good transport facilities, we do not shy away from a long drive. At the invitation of a cooperation of several organisations, we travelled last Wednesday 19 October to give a demo of our machine north of Berlin.
A day with a lot of theory and a lot of talking. In Germany, wet nature management is significantly less advanced than here in the Netherlands. That's why it's great that we can show our machine and our concept with a practical demo, and that it works best. Especially compared to other fellow machine builders present. All in all, a successful day of where we can hopefully look forward to some great collaborations.

Reed harvest 2022

The reed harvest season has come to an end for us.

2022 DVC Tracked Skidder

In addition to developing and building a suitable tracked undercarriage for the sensitive and low-loading soils for the Liebherr cranes, we have also been busy designing and building timber skidders on our own concept undercarriage. Speed and capacity combined with low ground pressure.

2022 DVC Wetlands Excavator

Besides the purchase of 3 Liebherr R914 compact excavators, we have also been busy in the background with the development and construction of a suitable crawler undercarriage for the sensitive and vulnerable soils and wetlands. Not available at Liebherr so we designed and constructed it ourselves.  We proudly present the new 14 tonne DVC Wetland excavapor equipped with the latest technology. A powerhouse in a compact design.

Logging in wetlands

We have purchased 3 Liebherr R914 compact excavators for clearing a 60 ha forest in wetlands. Qualitative one of the better excavator brands with high reliability and capacity.  Equipped with various attachments, we can serve you in all kinds of forest. 

New Low Loader Combination

In order to be able to continue transporting all the machines that we build and purchase for our operations ourselves and to be more flexible with the diversity of machines, we have taken this low loader combination into use. 

The renewed SB Track mower

After a period of development and redesign, we proudly present the renewed SB track mower. A product that will be familiar to the regular customer, but with a new and more modern core, improved performance and more comfort for the operator.
