Ploughing Champion
Published date July 30, 2010
Congratulations to 28-year-old Andrea Forzani who was victorious in the Gara Di Motoaratura Ploughing Competition held in Madregolo di Collecchio.
Working with his MF 6480 tractor and Moro plough, Andrea beat 39 other entrants in the fiercely-fought contest.
Ploughing competitions and tractor pulling are Andrea’s hobbies and a natural extension of his day job farming 50 ha in Fontanellato, near Parma. Here he grows cereals, sugar beet and forage crops and also runs a 70-head dairy herd for the production of liquid milk and Parmesan cheese.
Along with MF 3645 and MF 4355 tractors, the MF 6480 is a key tool on the farm where its duties include tomato transport, snow ploughing and cultivation.
