AIGR NEWSLETTER (No.11/2020): (mail to AIGR members)

EIMA International 2020 was postponed on 3-7 February 2021 and consequently also our 30^th Members’ Meeting will be scheduled on Saturday 6 and Sunday February 2021, in Bologna (Italy). The Agenda of the meeting will present the subjects pointed-out during the last Management Committee held in Hannover.

On 11-15 November 2020 Federunacoma will organize EIMA Digital Preview an opportunity for farmers, manufacturers and experts to interact digitally by participating in several proposals (straming meetings and discussions; seminars and training courses, etc.).
Club of Bologna will participate to this "digital appointment" with some events; in particular, we decided to move in EIMA Digital Preview: (i) the streaming presentations of the PhD results theses of "Pellizzi Prize 2020" winners and the following discussion with the online participants, and (ii) an introductory streaming event on the 30^th meeting, with the presentation of the topics covered during the three Sessions and interviews with the speakers.

Marco Fiala - Secretary General

The COVID-19 virus has practically spread all over the world and its growth curve is unfortunately still exponentially growing in many Countries. The "Club of Bologna" is a team of world experts in Agricultural Machinery and Mechanization, but first of all it is a group of people among whom a strong friendship has been established since a long time. So we really hope to find all the Members, their families, their friends, everbody in full health. We expect this situation will end soon and this terrible experience -that will have enormous economic, technical and social impacts all over the world- will serve as a warning for the future.

Due to the situation linked to the spread of Covid-19 in Italy, at the end of May-beginning of June we will send you both the Agenda of the 30^th Members' Meeting (Nov 15-16, 2020), and the communication of the start of the online registration procedure to attend the meeting.

 

Stay safe, take care and stay at home.
