In Fram a large presentation of Horsch agricultural machinery

Field performance at a higher level

On Friday, we witnessed a large presentation of tractors and agricultural machinery from Horsch and Claas in Fram near Maribor. The well-attended event was organized by the company Grapak A1 from Strahinj near Naklo, which has its own sales and service center in Fram on Bistriška cesta. At this place it is possible to see the machines that are in stock, and of course the sale of spare parts. Nearly five hundred visitors had the opportunity to see a number of Horsch innovations, which will be premiered at the Agritechnica trade fair in Hanover next year. These include the Versa KR seed drill, the new Pronto DC seed drill and the Leeb CS sprayer.

Horsch began manufacturing the machines in 1981. It was then that Michael Horsch manufactured and patented his first machine. From the very beginning, Horsch worked with farmers, listening and considering their wishes and needs. Their guideline was to offer the farmer the best machine for quality farming, which is why they always tested them on their farm first, and years ago they even bought a 3,000-hectare farm, which they use mainly to test machines in different conditions.
