Mega machinery at top Euro expo

Agromek, at Herning in Denmark, is the largest agricultural exhibition in Northern Europe.

A total of 237 new products were exhibited, and nine deemed to be of the greatest practical importance have won awards, adjudicated by an award committee of farmers and other professional users.

* An award-winning new air purifier for pig and poultry production units (pictured, right) doesn’t have filters which can become blocked, and therefore require cleaning. Winning one of the two Agromek Awards for pig farming, exhibited by Danish firm Munters, the HTLV-A horizontal air purifier removes ammonia from the air when it comes in contact with a mist of water and sulphuric acid. The resulting liquid is collected and transported into the slurry.
