Each new season for farmers is akin to a new life. No two seasons are alike. But for agricultural producers of the Central Black Soil region, it starts traditionally at the Expocentre of the Voronezh State Agricultural University with Agroseason. The exhibition has become a source of know-how for the new life.
Since this March, the AgroCentre Company has been offering Russian farmers a prompt and affordable leasing scheme from AGCO Finance. Together with the Kursk branch of AgroCentreLiski, the AGCO Finance Company presented its financial product and provided detailed information about the features of this new service.
Before the new seeding season, several seminars and conferences were held in the Kursk oblast at which the farmers discussed the main tasks of the farming industry in the current year.
AgroCentre is the first AGCO Corporation dealer to have arranged a trip for Russian farmers to the Massey Ferguson plant in Brazil. The farmers watched how the tractor is manufactured, visited a farm and saw one of the world’s wonders, the unforgettable Iguazu Falls.
This year the partners of AgroCentre met the spring in Italy. In early March, the company arranged a trip abroad for Russian farmers. The guests visited the AGCO combine harvester production facility in Breganze, Italy, and familiarised themselves with the country’s farming.
On the eve of the new season, the AGCO Corporation held a training session in Challenger seeding and tilling equipment for AgroCentre specialists.
Massey Ferguson is one of the oldest global agricultural brands from the family of the American corporation AGCO. Today its equipment is sold in 140 countries through a dealer network of over 5,000 companies including AgroCentre. Let's look back in history to understand why people love Massey Ferguson machines and who stood behind its creation.
On the eve of spring fieldwork at the Voronezhagrokompleks 2014 farming exhibition, the farmers were familiarised with modern tilling, seeding, fodder procurement and dairy cattle breeding equipment, as well as plant protection products and mineral fertilisers.
Today, the financial support available to Russian farmers for acquiring agricultural equipment leaves much to be desired. The federal budget provides subsidies very rarely, if at all. Many have had to tighten their belts. AgroCentre believes that there is a way out of this plight. The company actively cooperates with banks and leasing companies which offer various financial schemes for purchase of equipment on favourable terms.
Observations of recent years’ weather show that the spring comes in much of Russia very rapidly. This means the seeding job must be done as soon as possible, in two weeks at the most. AgroCentre offers good aids in the form of Challenger grain drills and cultivating seeders.
