Fendt Unveils Next-Generation 600 Series Tractors
Taking pride of place at Central Districts Field Days, the new 600 Series was Fendt’s incarnation of a compact and manoeuvrable 4-cylinder tractor in the 150-200hp sector.
For foodies, the Taste of Central Districts will serve the region’s wines and foods – Pheasant Creek and Ruahine wines, Basecamp venison salamis, Koast Limoncello, Gladstone Vineyard and Southern Grain Spirits.
Southern Grain drinks will include Duckshooter Port and aged whisky.
Food zones will sell whitebait fritters, gourmet burgers, hotdogs, hot donuts, etc. Supporting local business and talent, these food zones will be astir for the three days.
The food innovation and research experts FoodHQ will be on site offering visitors chats with their experts about the science being done in New Zealand. FoodHQ is world-notable for agri-food science and innovation along the food value chain - from idea generation to products on the shelf.
The FoodHQ campus being developed in Palmerston North will offer global customers ‘one-door access’ to the best in New Zealand food innovation. The collaborative approach creates a faster, easier way for food companies to work with the FoodHQ family.
Mark Ward, programme director at FoodHQ, says: “We’ll be talking to people about our vision and what we’re doing to help grow New Zealand’s agrifood sector. They’ll get to hear from food science experts and get to taste some enjoyable, innovative treats.”
Central Districts Field Days will be held at Manfeild Park, Feilding, from March 12-14.
