Sharing AGCO’s Precision Farming Technology Offering with Customers Around the Globe

Fuse^TM Technologies had a comprehensive presence at tradeshows around the globe late summer and fall this year. AGCO customers had a chance to interact with current precision farming technology products, talk with Fuse experts, and hear a little about what to expect from AGCO technologies in the future.

The augmented reality experience at Farm Progress Show 2014

The North America region represented Fuse Technologies at several shows – often despite unseasonably chilly and rainy weather conditions. Fuse was in attendance at InfoAg, MAGIE Show and Husker Harvest Days, and the sun came out just in time at Ohio Farm Science Review for successful field demonstrations using Auto-Guide^TM 3000 and FieldStar® II. A visit to the virtual farm through the augmented reality experience at Farm Progress Show was a big hit with show attendees. You can see a sample of the full Farm Progress Show 2014 experience here.   Fuse was also represented at the United States capitol at CAPA’s (the Coalition for the Advancement of Precision Agriculture) inaugural Precision Ag Forum in September.

Massey Ferguson and Valtra technology stands at Expointer in South America

In South America, Expointer had interactive Fused Farm displays, representing AGCO’s technology solutions for Massey Ferguson and Valtra. The Fuse strategy was presented in an exclusive area of the stand for both brands. The essence of the strategy was displayed by a touch screen totem, showing all of AGCO’s technology products, the product benefits to customers, and AGCO’s vision for precision agriculture in the future. The technology stands also featured a video wall that showed customer testimonies, discussing the positive points of having AGCO technology products (guidance, telemetry, etc.) in his machine. Another attraction was the AgCommand App simulator, also running in a touch screen totem, where customers could check some of the benefits of the system. In general customers provided very positive feedback about AGCO’s Fuse initiative.

Job fair attendees in Brazil could learn about Fuse Technologies and the precision farming industry

Between the 15th and 16th September, over 1,000 Mackenzie University students visited the AGCO stand during a Job Fair sponsored by the university – one of the largest and most traditional of Brazil. At the AGCO stand, students could learn about the evolution of technology in the field, interacting with the Fuse Technologies totem. AGCO´s professionals explained our global connectivity strategy, positioning our company as a leader in the development of technologies focused on farmers.

Learning about Massey Ferguson technology solutions at Vision of the Future

On the opposite side of the globe, the Massey Ferguson Vision of the Future events were held in the Asia Pacific (APAC) and the Europe, Africa, Middle East (EAME) regions. In Europe, the Fuse message was an integral part of cutting-edge technology conversations such as the latest in drone technology. Onsite demonstrations showed how guidance, telemetry and ISOBUS compatibility can allow Massey Ferguson customers to produce more with less. EAME hosted a Fendt Field Day as well, and recently participated at Agrosalon in Russia. At each event, customers had the opportunity to interact with AGCO technology products and learn more about the Fuse connected strategy. The 2014 tradeshow season will conclude with EIMA (International Agricultural and Gardening Machinery Exhibition) in Italy in November.

In addition to the unveiling of several new Massey Ferguson tractor models, Massey Ferguson Vision attendees in Australia were educated about the Fuse Technologies strategy and what to expect from AGCO technology products in the future.
