Latest farm machinery innovations set for show

For the first time, an electro-hybrid telehandler is being offered for agricultural use.

This allows emission-free electric drive in closed buildings, and a diesel engine powers the hydraulics and an electricity generator outdoors.

It is one of the new ideas that will emerge at the Agritechnica show in Hanover, Germany, in mid-November. The event has become one of the most important for presenting new farm machinery and equipment, and exhibitors will present nearly 400 innovations.
