BMG is again exhibiting its extensive range of agricultural components at Nampo. This year’s stand highlights the importance of the company’s Boer Slim/Smart Farming concept, which was launched by BMG four years ago to assist farmers cope with constantly changing trends in the agricultural sector.

“BMG’s team of agricultural experts offers farming sustainability solutions throughout Africa that focus on effective food production, the correct use of suitable equipment for the specific task and the efficient application of advanced technologies,” explains agricultural manager, Carlo Beukes. “We work closely with farmers to demonstrate that investment in the latest equipment is necessary to maximise productivity and does translate into tangible operational efficiencies.”

Working demonstrations show how BMG’s range of electronic, fluid technology, tools and power transmission components operate together to form an efficient system that enhances productivity and energy efficiency. BMG’s high quality replacement agricultural components, which conform to high quality assurance and specification certification, are engineered to improve productivity in the farming sector, to operate efficiently for extended periods and to reduce costs in the long term. As an example, BTC seed coulter discs are manufactured from 6 mm tough boron steel and are hardened between 55 and 58 hrc.

New to the agri range is the complete 8 series PTO drive shaft product line, designed and manufactured by La Magdalena in Italy. This is an OEM quality product and caters for heavy duty applications. BMG provides solutions to all key players in the agricultural sector, including local manufacturers of equipment and implements, as well as agricultural resellers and the farmer.
