Farm Progress Show

This is Farm Progress Show. At FPS farmers, agribusinesses and brands gather from all over the world to discover what’s new in the agriculture world, in terms of technologies, products and equipment.

And like every year has brought again its wind of change.

Among the major brands, FPT Industrial and New Holland Agriculture have definitely distinguished themselves.
