Four day, three night study tour

Visit to Massey Ferguson and Kuhn Headquarters

Over 18s only, associates welcome
NFYFC are pleased to announce an exciting opportunity to visit the European headquarters of both
Massey Ferguson and Kuhn Farm Machinery. You will be able to tour around the factories, learn about
the latest product developments, and quiz members of staff on their products. Both companies are
leading innovators in farm machinery, producing everything between them from ploughs to combine
harvesters.
We have extended the length of the study tour to enable full day visits to the factories and to provide
more of an opportunity for you to network with fellow young farmers on the tour to share experiences
and ideas.
There is also the opportunity to visit Paris on the first evening and two nights the historic city of Reims.
Reims is the centre of the Champagne region, with many of the les grandes marques (Champagne
producers) basing themselves in the city and offering tours around their houses.
The cost of the tour is only £217 including transport, bed, breakfast and insurance, thanks to the
support of Defra. To secure your place we need to receive payment and a completed booking form by
16th January 2015. If you are successful in securing a place, you will be advised accordingly and further
details will be provided.
Please fill in and return the form attached with your cheque made payable to NFYFC (or inform NFYFC
of your BACS payment ref France Study Tour).
