Entrevista a Julio Gil, presidente de Ansemat“Demoagro Allows us approach to the final user all the effort and daily development that realise our companies”
Interview to Julio Gil, president of Ansemat
We are to the doors of one of the most important events of this year in the agricultural sector, with big novelties and launchings that the companies participants go to put to disposal of the visitors so that they can test working in the field. And here it roots precisely the big novelty of Demoagro —of the 6 to 8 June in Ventosilla-Gumiel of Market (Boroughs)—, in the dynamism of this space of exhibition. We have wanted to know of the hand of Julio Gil, president of Ansemat, association organiser of this new appointment, why has decided to give now the step with Demoagro and which is being the answer of a sector that lives some delicate moments in Spain.
Julio Gil, president of Ansemat.
They are moments complicated for all the companies of agricultural machinery, that are supliendo with the exports the decrease of the inner demand. An evento like Demoagro can precisely act like element dinamizador inside our market?
Obviously, an evento like Demoagro allows us approach to the final user all the effort and daily development that realise our companies allowing, that the agriculturalists know at first hand the capacity of work, technological improvements and novelties in the equipment that will present and, perhaps, help to decide an investment, in these moments with a park of machinery aged, more than necessary.
Demoagro Has been natural consequence of the good received that had another similar initiative as it is Demoverde?
Both initiatives result consequence of the requests and needs of the companies associated to Ansemat, in front of which the association has taken a step forward to carry them to the practice and in both cases, projects on which has debated extensively and have stirred very diverse options for his put in practice.
In accordance with what explained, besides, both proposals look for to serve like an element diferenciador of the excellence of the sector to the time that favour the direct relation with the final user and the transfer and learning on the product and the agricultural best practices.
Why Ansemat has wanted to put only at the head of this initiative?
Ansemat Only appears like visible head of a much wider structure in which all the present actors are fundamental for his put in practice and, especially, his associated, thanks to which, to his support and interest, both initiatives have been able to see the light.
In both cases has the experience and capacity of big professionals for his development, on which the association supports .
The answer by part of the companies of machinery can describe as excellent to fault of two months so that it begin Demoagro?
No only of the sector of the mechanisation, represented by Ansemat, but of other companies that do not belong to the association and of other companies and sectors related with the agricultural sector that have believed in this project. Taking into account that it treats of a new evento, can be happy with the start, although it still is missing a lot of work for doing.
The majority of companies already have announced that go to carry to Boroughs the last novelties for the Spanish market. This has to ensure success of announcement…
In some cases treats even of novelties to world-wide level. We think that the effort that go to realise and that are realising all the companies will see compensated with the presence of visitors, thank you also to the effort of the own companies in the diffusion of Demoagro.
It will depend on what suceda in this first announcement that go back to celebrate a new edition in 2015?
The project Demoagro is cream with the intention of perdurar in the time, even with vocation traveller, since en el futuro it could contemplate other ‘Demoagros' with reference to different crops in function of the amplitude and diversity of the technological solutions and to the agricultural needs that show our companies in each campaign.
All our efforts find in treating to attain that this first Demoagro was a success and that it can fulfil with the expectations and needs of participants and visitors.
In Portugal exists a very seemed fair of demonstration of machinery that turns into indispensable appointment for all the industry and the agriculturalists that operate in the market luso. It expects the same good answer?
No only we have taken like example Agroglobal, but other similar international fairs that celebrate in Europe and America. However, in this sense would like us stand out that Demoagro does not pretend to be a fair, but a demonstration of agricultural machinery, since it is in this reality on which puts the emphasis: in that all the participants show his products, services, novelties by means of practical demonstrations that allow to the participants see, touch and test all the present equipment.
It send a message to all those professionals that are thinking in assisting to Demoagro 2013…
Demoagro Will gather the next 6, 7 and 8 June in the agricultural exploitation The Ventosilla, in Boroughs, the most important novelties in machinery and agricultural technology to disposal of the agriculturalists and graziers, that will be able to see and test equipment in works so different like laboreo, seeds, credited, plantation, recolección of forraje, pulverización, hammered of rests of poda or works in viñedo.
In an alone space will put to disposal of the visitors a wide range of machinery and equipment, so that they can, with the council and accompaniment of an expert, test them and check his capacity of work. An only occasion to put them to proof and, perhaps, take a decision of suitable purchase.
