Parade of Novelties at Korenskaya Fair

The 14th Kursk Korenskaya Fair offered its guests and participants invaluable experience exchange and presentation of the latest achievements in different branches of the industry. Over 20 state-of-the-art agricultural machines and implements were displayed by AgroCentre Company at the farm machinery exhibition sector and a big balloon hovering in the air invited guests to the booth of the Company.

- This year, we have brought many more brands of agricultural machinery to the Korenskaya Fair. – says Aleksandr Logvinov, Director of the Kursk Branch Office of AgroCentreLiski Company. - New names- Fendt, Massey Ferguson, and Valtra have been added to list of customary partners such as Сhallenger, Vaderstad, JCB, and Kverneland. The exhibition featured a parade of novelties led by the world No1 Fendt 933 Vario Tractor, 330 hp.

- The design of the Vario 900 series implements most advanced technologies. – says Aleksandr Usov, Specialist of the Sales Department of AgroCentreLiski Kursk Branch Office. – The tractor is fitted with pneumatic cab suspension, individual front axle, and continuously variable transmission, which gives it more capacity and enables to operate at high speeds, thus, saving time and resources in the fields and while driving from one field to another (up to 60km/h).

Another newly-introduced European brand – Massey Ferguson – is just in the beginning of conquering the Russian market. Aleksandr Usov explains that the Massey Ferguson and Challenger are the machines of the same class, line and quality. They are a bit different inside and outside but no fundamental feature differences.

The 8000 series Massey Fergusson Tractor (340hp) aroused great interest. The visitors were eager to hide from the rain in the comfortable cabin with excellent panoramic view. According to the specialists of AgroCentre, this versatile tractor is capable of performing any agricultural task, for example, it can be easily linked to front-mounted butterfly mower for forage harvesting and also attached to loader wagons, large square bailers, and cultivating and planting implements. The heart of the machine is its high-performance 6-cylinder AGCO POWER engine with Dyna-VT transmission awarded with a lot of prizes.

The new Massey Ferguson MF Activa S combine took the central place at the exposition. These are the combines that AgroCentre Company stakes on today. The MF Activa combine possesses a number of undeniable benefits: the low-consumption AGCO POWER engine with 270 hp output, rotor separator; the threshing cylinder with 8 bars and 8 ballasts, which improves its inertial capabilities. It all enables the combine to operate at high yields with no speed limitations. Mitrokhina Farm (Orel region) highly appreciated the quality and performance of the new machine. In high season, the combine harvested up to 50 ha per 1 working shift at 40-50 centner/ ha.

The new ACGO Finance leasing progamme for buying farm machinery launched in this March gathers pace. Agro-Invest Agricultutral Holding alone has already purchased five Challenger tracked tractors from the Kursk Branch Office under this financing programme.

- The demand for machinery has not dropped, - points out Aleksandr Logvinov. – Despite the complications with financing, Kursk region farms continue reequipping. The agriculture will not bear any stops!

Vladimir Rakov, Director of Raduzhnoe Ltd. Company (Kursk region) and a partner of the Company, buys only brand-new machinery and takes no loans.
