Although details have yet to be announced, the annual conference organized by the Northern Ontario Food Innovation Alliance (NOFIA) has in the past provided a venue for local-area producers and researchers to share agricultural research and best practices for use in the specific clime of Northern Ontario.

Registration is free for the virtual event.

Originally scheduled as an in-person event, NOFIA has shifted gears towards having it continue in 2022 as a virtual expo—which is why details about the event, including the roster of speakers, topics, and registration, will be made available soon.

Video: The new ARION 5 CMATIC. The best choice – whatever lies ahead. ?

The CLAAS ARION 5 CMATIC – a tractor for a wide range of tasks. Whether mowing, cultivating, swathing or baling: the new ARION 5 CMATIC impresses with its versatility and adapts to changing tasks. ?
Equipped with the tried-and-tested CMATIC continuously variable transmission and a 4-cylinder engine delivering up to 180 PS, it guarantees the perfect balance of impressive performance, excellent driving comfort and outstanding efficiency. ?

On many farms, requirements change by the hour. One moment it’s road transport, the next it’s mowing grassland, then cultivating the field. This is quickly followed by raking, baling and wrapping – each task places its own demands on speed, precision and power. Via the Power-Beyond connection, the load-sensing system pumps up to 150 litres of oil per minute. This is ideal for heavy-duty hydraulic implements in rapidly changing operations. The ARION 5 CMATIC provides reliable support in every one of these situations, when every minute counts on the farm. ?

This is precisely where its strength lies: not in excelling in a single discipline, but in switching between very different tasks without compromising on reliability or performance. For farms where no two days are the same, it is precisely this flexibility that is crucial – the ARION 5 CMATIC delivers it without wasting valuable time between jobs. ?
