MF brand spans the generations
Published date August 03, 2009
A special presentation was made recently to the Palfrey farming family in the UK to mark 50 years as Massey Ferguson customers.
Three generations of the family – grandfather Peter, son Hugh and grandson Benjamin - made the trip from their home in Devon to the AGCO Training Centre at Abbey Park Stoneleigh where they attended an operator training course on their latest purchase – an MF Activa 7245S combine.
In the last half century, the Palfreys have operated in excess of 50 MF tractor models while this latest Activa represents their tenth MF combine.
Three generations of the Palfrey family were presented with a Border Fine Arts model tableau of an MF 35 tractor and trailer to mark over 50 years of loyalty to the MF brand.
