If a word highlighted above other interviews that Interempresas could perform the majority of brands, and which can be read in the next issue of our magazine, was that of "pride". The pride to be present in what has become an event, in that they have even been some of the brands which are contacted Fendt to not miss the annual meeting of the German mark in our country.
A day with a unique feeling
The day began at nine in the morning, time to which a never-ending caravan of tractors was already expected to the portico of Fendt to enter the premises and the first visitors were registered in the marquees of reception waiting for your gift: the shirt that year after year attests to having gone to the edition of Fendtgüinos. The enormous space enabled parking tractors of clients, was quickly covered green Fendt, with hundreds of tractors lined up were an impressive army. After the inauguration by Maria of the miracle Zarzuelo, Mayor of Tordesillas, the range of products Fendt were marching by the central ring. Special interest sparked the new 200 Vario series, as well as the new 800 and spectacular collection Fendt machinery.
Already in work, visitors were dispersed by the extensive area of work, 30 hectares of land, which could try first-hand all the products that different brands of equipment put at the disposal of the Fendt mark or take a walk by the different marquees of the brands and enjoy static exhibitions of the same.

The professional exhibition, the great attraction
The professional exhibition, in the hands of the professional demonstrators Willi Netze, Wolfgang Henkel and Adolf Eitler, led by Georg Fuchs, from Germany, left with the mouth open to more than one. His skill, ability and sense of the show did shine, even more if possible, all the virtues of these advanced technology and high-precision machines. For its part the driver of the tractor Pulling Jochen Graf Fendt demonstrated the ease with which a Fendt tractor can pull a subsoiler mounted in a huge Fendt 936 thanks to their almost 400CV of power. Wolfgang Henkel with its 209 Fendt Vario F piloted the maneuverability and possibilities to a very narrow tractor can offer reaching high speeds and precision of the shovel Fendt charge controlled, even from the outside, with the lever in cross. Simplicity and performance were the work of Willi Netze to the reins of a Fendt 200 Vario, demonstrating the simplicity of the active stop in the pedal mode as in joystick mode, leaving static tractor on a mound.
Finally, the technical of Fendt, José Pérez, to demand from the audience played a beautiful dance consisting of a myriad of seahorses, pranced and turns on a tractor Fendt 820 Vario equipped with a ploughshare of five bodies from Ovlac brand.
