New Holland, a CNH brand, and the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná (PUCPR) in Brazil, have entered a partnership to modernize and renovate the Gralha Azul Experimental Farm (FEGA), a unit that provides teaching and research support for undergraduate and graduate courses related to agriculture, especially Veterinary Medicine and Agronomy.
Six new tractors will be made available to support the activities of these courses and the Veterinary School Clinic. The partnership will also enable the opportunity to open an internship program for students.
