This year the major arable farming event in the UK "Cereals" was held in Boothby Graffoe in Lincolnshire, attracting more than 24,000 visitors over the course of the two days. 

This is the key event for professional arable farmers of all sizes from across the country, along with industry experts, advisors and agronomists. 

For PÖTTINGER UK this year, we were able to debut the FOX 300 D and AEROSEM 3002 ADD combination. This unit received a lot of interest from farmers in particular, who were appreciative of its compact dimensions. There was also a great deal of interest in the SERVO 45S Plus 5 furrow plough as farmers look for effective ways to tackle Blackgrass weed problems in their crops. The plough has proven to be an effective tool in the fight against Blackgrass even if only used on a rotational basis and the 46W bodies fitted to the Servo are an ideal choice to help bury the weed seeds effectively post harvest.

Going down a storm was our PÖTTINGER Sunglasses promotion. In return for completing a registration card with their details visitors could receive a stylish pair of PÖTTINGER sunglasses absolutely free! Having handed out more than 1,200 pairs during the two days these proved a great way of spreading the news about the PÖTTINGER brand.
