Ceremonial handover of the keys to one of the most advanced combine harvesters in the Case IH portfolio / Renowned no-till farming expert chooses maximum productivity, soil structure protection and precise crop residue management
Płock, 20 August 2026
Case IH, together with its authorised dealer Kisiel Agrotech, is proud to announce the official delivery of the first Case IH AF10 combine harvester in Poland. The machine has been delivered to the farm of Mr. Wiesław Gryn, a long-standing Case IH customer and one of Poland’s leading authorities in no-till farming. The handover ceremony was a family event, attended by Mr. Wiesław together with his wife, son and grandchildren, as well as representatives of Case IH and Kisiel Agrotech.
Tradition combined with modern technology
The family farm of Mr. Wiesław Gryn covers more than 1,000 hectares and continues a proud agricultural tradition dating back to the former Zamość Estate. The family’s history of farming in this location spans more than 200 years. Today, it is one of the most innovative and exemplary farms in Poland.
Known for its focus on soil quality and modern technologies, the farm has relied on the proven reliability of Case IH machinery for many years. The new Case IH AF10 is already the third combine harvester from the brand in Mr. Wiesław’s fleet, joining the previously acquired Axial-Flow 8250 and 9250 models. The farm’s tractor fleet includes legendary high-horsepower models such as Steiger, Magnum and Puma tractors.
Case IH AF10: Engineering powerhouse and technological breakthrough
The Case IH AF10 combine is the flagship model of the new AF series, setting entirely new standards for harvesting productivity in grain and corn. At the heart of the machine is a powerful FPT Cursor 16 engine delivering up to 775 hp, working together with the new 762 mm-diameter AFXL rotor. This design increases crop throughput, fuel efficiency and straw quality, while minimising grain damage and maximising separation.
A decision made in the field: Simple design and uncompromising performance
Mr. Wiesław Gryn is renowned for his highly thorough and technical approach to machinery purchases. As a farmer who designs and builds his own tillage equipment, he evaluates machinery not only from the perspective of a user, but also as an engineer. In line with the farm's philosophy, every Case IH combine investment is earned through extensive field demonstrations and real-world testing before a purchase decision is made.
The latest AF10 combinewas no exception. The final purchase decision was preceded by intensive field demonstrations carried out in September directly on Mr. Wiesław’s farm during the corn harvest. The opportunity to test the Case IH AF10 combine under the most demanding working conditions and with high-yielding crops confirmed the strong commitment of both Case IH and Kisiel Agrotech, for whom partnership with the farmer and technical support at every stage are key priorities.
Protecting soil structure and perfect straw chopping
Mr. Wiesław is widely regarded as one of Poland’s leading authorities in no-till farming. A key priority on his farm is maintaining optimal soil structure and limiting soil compaction. For this reason, he chose the Case IH AF10 combine equipped with the proven factory-installed Case IH track system and the new 12.5-metre Case IH VariCut header, helping to minimise the number of passes across the field.
The delivery of the Case IH AF10 combine to Mr. Wiesław Gryn’s farm confirms that Case IH’s advanced innovations meet the most demanding requirements of modern large-scale agricultural operations in Poland.
