What drives (a) Fendt?    💡The excange with young decision-makers is important to us in order to increase understanding of agriculture and agricultural technology solutions. Yesterday, 15 young talents from local Schools visited us at our Marktoberdorf site. After a factory tour, where they got an overview of the production of our Fendt tractors, our Vice President Marketing, Fendt EME Roland Schmidt talked about the Fendt brand and alternative drives for tractors.    👨🌾The tenth graders had applied in advance for the hands-on policy seminar and came from all over Swabia, Bavaria. The aim of the seminar is to challenge and encourage the decision-makers of tomorrow. Some of them had already had their first contact with agriculture before their visit. Most of them were in contact with agricultural technology for the first time.    🗣 Whether they had previous knowledge of agriculture or not, all of them were aware of the farmers' protests about "agricultural diesel". Now they had the opportunity to find out what it's all about. Would a CO2 tax be part of the solution for more sustainable agriculture? And is diesel an obsolete model? The students put these and other questions to Roland Schmidt. 🔋He illustrated that the most challenges in farming are more complex and solutions need research time. By comparing the Fendt e100 V Vario (whose production is about to start) with the hydrogen-powered Fendt Helios and an HVO-ready tractor, he showed that there is not THE one alternative drive for all performance classes. It was the second time that the policy seminar from Marktoberdorf High School visited us.  #Fendt #PolicySeminar #AlternativeDrives #Tractors #AgriculturalTechnology
