The agricultural machinery industry is actively engaging with the implementation of the EU’s F-gas framework. We are pleased to share a newly-developed 𝗩𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗺 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗹𝘂𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘆, to support manufacturers in navigating the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2024/573. This practical guide focuses on the use of F-gases in air-conditioning systems in agricultural mobile machinery and outlines key obligations across the lifecycle of equipment, from manufacturing and placing on the market to import and export. The document reflects how our sector approaches F-gas-related challenges and solutions in practice. We hope it can contribute to ongoing discussions and improve understanding of regulatory implementation in our industry. 📄 The Vademecum is now available here: https://lnkd.in/eFZVVuhF

Drone seeding gives P.E.I. farmers a head start on season
A growing number of P-E-I farmers are using agricultural drones to give them a head start on the season. Spring time is muddy on the Island, making it almost impossible for heavy trucks and tractors to get into fields. But the drone is adding a couple of extra weeks to get work done before planting. Nancy Russell and drone operator Aaron Adetuyi have the story.

"Conservationists have called for restrictions on #pet flea treatments after research found #songbird feathers widely contaminated with substances that can damage the birds’ brains & kill unborn chicks. Almost every feather sample tested from 5 common #species of UK garden #birds contained either permethrin, imidacloprid or fipronil - all insecticides that are banned for #agricultural use but still common in pet tick & flea treatments."

Experts call for restrictions on pet flea treatments that harm UK songbirds

Chemicals known to affect brains of common garden birds, and to kill unborn chicks, found in most feather samples

@Dr_Bombay okay,and how can I add a representation of my #agricultural work such that it can be also seen on the map of Africa?

@motherjones.com This is the best way to grow our fresh non toxic #plants which are organically grown.
And those chemicals are dangerous both to humans and the #environment .
The non organic #agricultural companies could be abolished or else we #farmers should abandon to purchase their products.

#JohnDeere to Pay $99 Million in Monumental #RightToRepair Settlement
The #agricultural giant will make digital diagnostic, maintenance, and repair tools available to 3rd parties for 10yr. That is crucial, #farmers previously resorted to hacking their equipment’s software just to get it up and running again. John Deere signed a memorandum in 2023 that provided third parties with the technology to diagnose and repair, as long as its intellectual property was safeguarded.
