DEMONSTRATION OF A HIGH-TECH SELF-PROPELLED SPRAYER AGRIFAC CONDOR V

Improving the quality of training highly qualified specialists, adapting educational and professional programs to the modern requirements of employers, ensuring internships for higher education applicants, and employment for graduates is impossible without the introduction of modern technical and technological solutions into the educational and scientific process. For Vinnytsia National Agrarian University, this is one of the priority areas of activity in the provision of educational services and conducting scientific research.

A demonstration of the high-tech self-propelled sprayer Agrifac Condor V, capable of processing up to 400 hectares of crops in one shift, was held on the territory of VNAU.

This event became possible due to the targeted and effective use of land allocated by the state to the University. Thanks to the availability of land plots, over the past 5 years, students, scientific and pedagogical workers of the faculties and colleges of the University have had the opportunity to acquire practical skills, conduct dissertation and diploma research, demonstrate technological and technical achievements, and advanced experience. At the same time, high indicators of financial and economic activity at the level of the best business private agricultural enterprises were also obtained. Annual profit averaged 9-14 million UAH. Such efficiency of land use made it possible to purchase new modern tractors, combines, seeders, balers, and sprayers for a total of more than 40 million UAH.

President of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University, Doctor of Economic Sciences, Professor, Academician of National Academy of Sciences Grygorii KALETNIK, speaking to students and teachers at the presentation of the newly purchased modern sprayer, he expressed gratitude to the leaders and staff of the Colleges and ERF «Agronomiche» for high achievements in work, the result of which made it possible to make a significant gift to a talented student for even greater motivation in studying and mastering modern technology.

The representative of the Agrifac manufacturing plant - Igor POLISHCHUK, together with the Zeppelin Ukraine team, demonstrated the operation of the sprayer and spoke in detail about its key advantages and innovative solutions. All those present were impressed by the sprayer's unique ability to work even in adverse weather conditions, in particular with wind gusts of up to 15 m/s, which was made possible thanks to the NTA system.

In addition to impressive technical characteristics, the Agrifac Condor V demonstrates what the future of the agricultural industry will be - technologically equipped, automated and maximally efficient. It is such machines that will help solve global problems associated with extremely complex agricultural production. 

Everyone present at the demo was impressed by the power of the equipment and its unique technical solutions, which make it an indispensable assistant in a modern agricultural enterprise.

VNAU - education that opens up the world of technology and innovation.
