Krone Supports National Fodder Conference as Major Sponsor

The 2014 National Fodder Conference hosted by the Australian Fodder Industry Association (AFIA) will be sponsored by hay equipment manufacturer Krone.

 

“AFIA is pleased to announce that our Gold sponsors Krone will be the major conference sponsors for this year’s event” said Darren Keating, AFIA Executive Officer “Without the support of all of our annual sponsors like Krone, AFIA would not be able to host this event which is a really important forum for the Australian fodder industry”. 

“This is the only forum of its kind that brings together people from across Australia, covering all sectors of the hay and silage industry. It provides an opportunity to discuss industry issues, learn about the latest in fodder technology and hear from local and international speakers presenting on all things fodder related” Mr Keating said.

 

“A big focus of the conference is creating and strengthening industry networks” Mr Keating said “The conference program gives everyone plenty of time to catch up at social functions and visit the trade and machinery displays put on by our sponsors, like Krone”.

 

“If you are in the fodder industry I highly recommend getting yourself along to Adelaide for the Conference in August” concluded Mr Keating.

 

Krone Product Manager Lars Pasedag will be opening the 2014 National Fodder Conference on Tuesday 5 August. Krone will also feature their new 8 knotter HDP II Big Pack Baler in the Machinery display during the conference.

 

The 2014 National Fodder Conference will be held at the Adelaide Convention Centre, Monday August 4 to Wednesday August 6. A full brochure and registration form is available from the AFIA website www.afia.org.au or by contacting the AFIA office on 03 9530 2199.
