The convention took place on 9 Octo- ber at Villa Traverso Pedrina, an ancient mansion situated in the countryside of the Vicenza area. Besides being the oc- casion for presenting the new machine to the Italian dealers, the venue was also organized with a view to provid- ing useful indications for the future sales campaign both as to targets and product, and to draw up a balance of the season that had just concluded. The large number of Italian dealers who took part testified to their strong interest in the new self-levelling com- bine and their confident hopes for market recovery. The day began with a visit to the Breganze factory, where the guests were welcomed by Grazia Stefani, wards attaining the established goals. company-sales network system and from the Italian sales department, and The outlook must become increasingly according to which all those who are by the quality manager, Gianni Salin. more customer-oriented and must part of that system must work.

Der Milchpreis befindet sich auf dem niedrigsten Stand seit 2009. Auf der Agritechnica 2015 wurden vielfältige Neuheiten, wie beispielsweise ein elektrisch angetriebener Schwa- der, vorgestellt.

The milk price is at its lowest level since 2009. Nevertheless innovations such as an electric driven swather are presented at Agritechnica 2015. Further innovations in this sector of agricultural engineering are detailed improvements. The recycling of leftover biomass is indicated as an important process step.
