Another double award for Pöttinger innovations

Ag-Fox in Gold and Silver

Pöttinger wins two awards at the Agraria fair in Wels, one of the largest agricultural shows in Austria. A Gold "Ag-Fox" for "autocut" and a Silver "Ag-fox" for the VITASEM metering system.

"autocut", the world's first automatic knife sharpening system for loader wagons, already received a Silver medal at Agritechnica last year, awarded by a panel of experts from the DLG (German Agricultural Assocation). And now it has won a golden fox as well: the Gold Agrarfuchs. The Austrian Farmers' Magazine (Österreichische Bauernzeitung) and the Wels Show were looking for practical ideas and solutions in agriculture. This year again, an independent jury chooses the best-of-the-best in the ideas competition: three Gold awards and three Silvers. Pöttinger also captured a silver fox for the new metering system on the VITASEM seed drill featuring two independent metering units within the same sowing system.
These awards highlight once again the power of innovation with which Pöttinger sets sail into a successful future. The agricultural technology manufacturer based in Grieskirchen has held its position as world leader in loader wagons for a number of years, and this year has taken the lead in Austria with seed drill technology.
