MF launches its 2018 range at Agritechnica and Dave Harris was there.
Agritechnica 2017 was held on November 12-18 in Hannover, Germany, and as the world’s largest agricultural machinery show it provided the perfect stage for Massey Ferguson to show off its new products.
With new tractors, combines, balers and mowers to name just a few, Massey have branded this launch ‘For a New Generation’ and certainly provided a significant new generation of machinery to the business of food production.
