This year's LAMMA show takes place at the Newark
Showground on 16 and 17 January. Andy Collings highlights some of
the new products that will be on display.
A record number of companies are expected to exhibit at LAMMA
2008. In fact the organisers have announced that, with 470
exhibitors signed up, the show is officially full. It's a situation
that many other agricultural shows would be envious of.
While the every-other-year Agritechnica event in Germany is
becoming the show of choice for those wanting to see the latest
European launches, for most UK farmers LAMMA provides the first
opportunity to see new introductions in the flesh.

The cancellation of last year's Dairy Event means that the LAMMA
event will provide for many the first glimpse of Keenan's new
Kompact 160 diet feeder.
Though the 160 has a larger 16cu m capacity, its dimensions are
smaller than the 14cu m Klassik 140. This has been achieved by
using a larger diameter mixing chamber and moving the feed-out
auger to a lower position so that it remains within the overall
width of the machine.
