Simple and efficient

Just before the start of the harvesting campaign, farmers of Oryol oblast gathered at the regional Field Day on the territory of Shatilovo Experimental Station. Even the recent severe weather outbreak could not frighten the guests and exhibitors. It took all night to put straight all the lopsided pavilions and booths.

Over 50 companies presented farm machines. The Orlov branch of AgroCentre was among the exhibitors.

‘In our booth, we demonstrate practically the full range of farm machines for fieldwork’, says Evgeny Ankudinov, Head of the branch office.

The guests of the trade show enthusiastically tested the machines. For example, the JCB 531-70 telehandler won the heart of Sergey Vasechkin, Head of Teploye farming enterprise (Novoderevenkovsky district). The farmer purchased the machine the next day after the trade show.

NobelAgro farming enterprise also has a JCB 531-70 telehandler. The farm is located on the territory of 60, 000 hectares in Oryol oblast. Vitaly Melnikov, Director of the enterprise, says that he was also considering buying some Rapid seed drills from AgroCentre. The implements can be used for direct seeding and are suitable both for conventional and minimum tillage practices due to their powerful front discs.

The Fendt 936 tractor became another highlight of the show. Its power (360 hp) and the self-levelling front axle suspension render it unrivaled in terms of reliability. The economic efficiency of the machine is ensured by the cutting-edge Deutz engine and the Vario continuously variable transmission. This powerful tandem allows reducing the fuel consumption by 15-20%, and the self-levelling independent wheel suspension ensures a 15% performance increase.

Along with the farm machines, AgroCentre presented service vehicles equipped with all the necessary diagnostics and repair tools. The vehicles made a great impression on the farmers.

‘During the season, we work seven days a week’, says Evgeny Ankudinov, ‘we always have servicing engineers on duty, who are ready to start off any minute at the client’s request.’
