On this year’s stand will be a twin auger VF2000 Feeder Wagon and a 2500 Premium Plus Recessed Slurry Tank, as well as information on the complete product range.

Abbey Machinery is positioned to support the farmer to achieve their best margins by achieving grants and incentives for more sustainably produced food.
