With a record number of visitors the worldwide biggest agricultural fair of Agritechnica has come to an end in Hanover.
All together more than 350,000 visitors came, under it 77,000 from abroad (official figures of the DLG). And more than 2,300 enterprises from 46 countries presented their range of machines, spare parts and accessories. "Agriculture is the key branch of the 21st century", according to Dr. Reinhard Grandke, general manager of the DLG. We, the company Franz Kleine, presented ourselves this year with a new exhibition stand, visible from a distance because of a big cupola under whose roof the interested visitor could sit down to talk to our staff. Main topics of these talks were the novelties of the fair: Regarding the SF 10-2 the hydraulically driven lifting unit with individual oscillators and regarding the RL 350 V the optional transfer width of maximum 15 metres as well as the new arrangement of the residual beet pick-up for road travel behind the cabin.
