Exhibitor Press Releases

During the year, most farms use contractors to complete work on the land by hedge cutting, silage and combining to name a few.

The busy harvest period comes with many heavily loaded tractors and trailers on public highways. Below we cover two of the major risks associated with machinery in field and on the roads.

A new range of McCormick four-cylinder tractors with a number of performance and driver comfort advances will be launched at the LAMMA 2019 show as McCormick manufacturer Argo Tractors aims to wow visitors with one of its most ambitious stand presentations.

The McCormick X7.440 P6-Drive destined for the event will represent a three model line-up of higher-spec four-cylinder tractors with maximum power outputs from 141hp to 176hp with ‘power boost’ on all models and a new slick-shifting powershift transmission.

A new range of ‘stockman’ tractors available with a comprehensive choice of transmission packages will make its UK debut at the LAMMA show being held on 8/9 January 2019 at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham.

The Landini 5 Series comprises three models with power outputs from 99hp to 113hp, a choice of synchro or power shuttle transmissions with creep and economy pto options, and mechanical or electronic operation of the 4750kg rear linkage.

A new addition to the Landini tractor range is aimed at farmers wanting a relatively low, compact and highly manoeuvrable machine with good pulling performance for its size.

The Landini 6-H Series comes hot off the assembly lines at the Argo Tractors factory complex in northern Italy, which manufactures more than 70% by value of Landini models, including front axles, cabs and transaxles.

The new 6-H Series tractors slot into the 44hp to 225hp Landini line-up mid-way, with three power outputs of 110hp, 119hp and 126hp.

This year at Lamma we are excited to launch our latest addition to our award winning GPS range.

The BlackBox Air Guidance System has increased accuracy, is extremely easy to use and within everyone’s budget.

It also has added features such as area measurement, field recognition and terrain compensation.

There is also the option of a software upgrade to the Air+ which gives added features such as job recording, headland guidance, headland warning and pause job option.

Nick Walters, Technical Director at Patchwork says “The BlackBox Air is the simplest, most cost effective guidance system around.”

Customers tell us that the BlackBox Air is smoother, faster and better than its predecessor which makes it the perfect choice for all guidance needs.

Bionature UK’s smart liquid fertilisers have helped a longstanding customer win two YEN gold awards.

Lincolnshire farmer Tim Lamyman has used our products to grow YEN-winning crops five times to date and this year he had top yields for oilseed rape and cereals.

Every grower knows that proper fertiliser can bring big improvements in the quality of their crops, but a year-long test of using Bionature’s smart liquid fertilisers for winter wheat has achieved unprecedented results-  a new record for the farm.

 

Bionature farmers are no stranger to using our range of products, but this year a bespoke combination of products was used to deliver a 120% return on investment with a 78.4% increase in head count.

From weeks of snow in the spring to one of the hottest and driest summers on record, 2018 has been an unpredictable year for growers, but for Bionature customers it’s been another excellent year.
