AgQuip is a major focal point for new technology and developments in agriculture, attracting large and small exhibitors from across the world. International manufacturer, Case IH, are displaying a new Magnum Series 380 tractor some 18 months before it will be available in Australia, but their Product Manager for Precision Farming, Andrew Kissel, says Australian farmers are always pushing to gather more data about their crops and ways to improve their efficiency, even if it is only one per cent at a time. #agquipfielddays #caseih #caseihmagnum #caseihmagnum380 #tractor #tractors #tractorshow #caseihagquip #farmer #farmers #agriculture #agriculture_global #agricultureworldwide #agricultureaustralia #agricultureworld (at Gunnedah West, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1X1kTwnPGe/?igshid=11ogxl060fbu3

A international prototype cultivator on display at AgQuip this week is one of only two of its type in the world, and it’s been on running trials on a number of Australian farms prior to release. The Bourgault HD 848 is built in Canada but made especially for the Australian market where its also narrow enough for road travel and fitting through any narrow gateways. Its been trialled across some 30 Australian farms over a thousand hectares and is on display at AgQuip at Gunnedah over the three days this week. Bourgault Eastern States Operations Manager, Phil Hartley (pictured), says there was a need for such a machine in Australia. #agquipfielddays #bourgault #bourgaultairseeder #farm #farmers #cultivator #cultivators #innovation #innovations (at Gunnedah West, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1XYUe-HOgu/?igshid=eo7b7br4h130

As the world moves toward low emission motors and pumps, big steps are being made toward hybrid engines and ultimately the end of combustion engines. While that is some years away yet, sales and marketing manager for Volvo Penta, Gavin Rooney, says they are not only trying to increase engine up-time, but Australian farmers are keen to learn the latest in ‘electromobility’, some of which is on display at AgQuip this week. #agquipfielddays #volvopenta #volvopentapower #gunnedah #engines #electromobility #farmers #farm #farmpower (at Gunnedah West, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1XXSFdHD3r/?igshid=zrrvjjguakkk

A new feature at AgQuip this year is the Rural Relief Precinct, where a range of organisations will offer support and some free items for farmers suffering under the current drought conditions. Organisers of the event have now decided to make the Precinct a permanent feature, no matter what the weather conditions. #agquipfielddays #salvationarmy #thesalvationarmy #droughtrelief #ruralrelief (at Gunnedah West, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1XUS8hnnSc/?igshid=qspaoe1f0k3y

AgQuip is famous for its range of great steak sandwiches, with many cattle breed societies competing to produce the best steak. Its also a good time for beef producers to work together and even find a shoulder to lean on in tough times. Newly elected president of the Doughtmaster stud breeders society, Todd Heyman, from the Clarence Valley near Grafton, NSW, says they will sell up to a thousand steaks and sausages every day at AgQuip, which equals about 50 head of cattle. #agquipfielddays #droughtmaster #droughtmasters #gunnedah #beef #steak #beefsteak #beefcattle #cattle #farmfieldday #farmers #farm #farmer #fieldday #fieldday2019 (at Gunnedah West, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1XPNDhnXZ7/?igshid=1dtyuna57szqt
