“Agriculture is at the heart of who we are at Titan. As the only farm tire and wheel company headquartered in the U.S., we feel a special connection to farmers and appreciate their decision to buy American-made tires because it supports thousands of U.S. jobs to keep the nation running. By partnering with Farm Rescue again, we look forward to raising more money to assist farmers in need.”

said Paul Reitz, Titan President and CEO.

Last year, Titan raised $4,500 for Farm Rescue as part of its inaugural “Flags Over Harvest” campaign and has a goal to raise more funds this year. Titan’s history with the “Flags Over Harvest” campaign includes donating to Farm Rescue in 2019 to assist farmers affected by major spring floods in the Midwest and in 2020 to help farmers dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. We will also be partnering with them at the Farm Progress Show, Husker Harvest Days and the Iowa State Fair.

“Farm Rescue is honored to be a recipient of the ‘Flags Over Harvest’ campaign once again this year. Last year’s funds helped give farm families a chance to continue their livelihood.  In 2021, Farm Rescue and its army of volunteers were honored to extend a helping hand to 121 families across our 7-state service territory. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Titan International, Inc. with the goal of helping America’s farm families in times of crisis.”

said Bill Gross, Founder and President of Farm Rescue.

Titan is kicking off its “Flags Over Harvest” campaign to celebrate farmers for their continued dedication to buying American-made Titan and Goodyear Farm Tires. As part of the campaign, Titan is giving away a free American flag to farmers to display on their equipment during harvest season. For each flag requested, $5 will be donated by Titan to Farm Rescue — a nonprofit organization that plants and harvests crops free of charge for family farmers who have suffered a major illness, injury, or natural disaster.

“Titan is the only farm tire and wheel company headquartered in the U.S., and the decision to buy American-made tires is one that supports thousands of American jobs which keeps America working. We’re proud to support organizations like Farm Rescue that share our values and give back to deserving American farmers,”

said Paul Reitz, Titan President, and CEO.

Titan has had a long-standing partnership with Farm Rescue. In 2019, Titan donated to Farm Rescue to assist farmers with spring floods in the Midwest, and in 2020, helped the ag industry and American farmers during the pandemic with donations to the organization.

“Farm Rescue proudly displays the American flag on all our agricultural equipment to highlight our patriotic and altruistic mission of helping America’s farm families in times of crisis,”

said Bill Gross, Founder & President of Farm Rescue.

“We are truly honored and thankful to be a recipient of the ‘Flags Over Harvest’ campaign by Titan International, Inc.”

As the month of September begins, the EIMA Digital Preview (EDP) – the virtual reality preview of the international exhibition of agricultural machinery – enters its operational phase. The path towards the digital preview, which takes place from 11 to 15 November and which precedes the opening of the physical exhibition by almost three months, set at the Bologna exhibition centre from 3 to 7 February 2021, has a precise calendar. A series of rendezvous, initiatives and technical deadlines characterize the event’s road map, aiming to involve the highest number of participants, optimizing the activity of the exhibiting industries. They will highlighting the importance of an event that is unequalled in the landscape of industry reviews, as an unprecedented experience for all and a tool with extraordinary potential.

On 15 September, the registration of visitors and operators to the digital platform on the EIMA website kicks off, a useful element for immediately monitoring access from various countries and orienting communication initiatives more precisely. Also on 15 September, at the same time as the registration of the participants, the Social Media campaign (FaceBook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter) will be intensified, aimed at disseminating information on the contents and organizational aspects of the EDP. Starting from the second week of September, exhibiting companies will be able to start setting up their own virtual rooms, placing inside them – in the evocative three-dimensional spaces provided in the platform – the gallery of ranges and new products, as well as information material about the company.

A calendar will be issued on 23 September, detailing the conferences, seminars, technical and educational events, as well as the live shows that will animate the Agorà, the large virtual space specifically dedicated to the exhibition’s cultural contents. Manufacturers that intend to hold company press conferences and product presentations inside the Agorà will have time until 15 October to notify the organizers and book the space, while each company will still have the option to organize events and meetings directly inside their own room. The busy programme of the Agorà includes the event presenting the finalist models for Tractor of the Year, the competition promoted by the magazine Trattori, set to be streamed on 11 November from the EDP platform. The preview event of the Technical News competition promoted by FederUnacoma, set for 12 November, will also be streamed live.

The calendar of initiatives in preparation for the EIMA Digital Preview includes many updates through radio and television broadcasters, websites and the industry press. There will also be seminar events, including the one specifically dedicated to online marketing techniques, offered to all exhibitors and scheduled to be streamed (with simultaneous translation into English) on 25 September. With regard to internationalization activities, on 5 October FederUnacoma will send the updated documentation on the digital Preview, accompanied by multimedia support materials, to the diplomatic network of embassies and ICE offices abroad, for the maximum dissemination of the event in the press and with the operators from each country.

In parallel with the preparations for the virtual event, the organization of the physical edition of EIMA International continues, with the development of logistical details and health safety devices for the participants. EIMA International is one of the key events worldwide – the FederUnacoma organizers underline – and it must take place in conditions of maximum safety for all visitors, economic operators and the staff of the exhibiting companies.

Volvo Penta is requesting images, videos and stories from boaters enjoying the versatility of the Volvo Penta Forward Drive in a user-generated content campaign titled “Be a Featured Forward Driver.”

Entrants will be eligible to win a variety of prizes, such as a GoPro HERO8 camera or a wakesurf board. Contributed content will be shared across Volvo Penta’s robust social media fan base. The contest runs now through October 15.

The contest is part of a new campaign titled “360 Degrees of Fun” that aims to build on the Forward Drive’s market momentum. The multi-media campaign highlights the breakthrough engineering design that turned the propellers 180 degrees, enabling Volvo Penta to deliver a complete, full circle of adventure on the water. Regardless of a boater’s activity preference – whether it’s wakesurfing, cruising, fishing, picnicking or jumping off a spacious swimming platform – it’s all possible with a single boat.

Anyone who has experienced the fun of the Volvo Penta Forward Drive – whether as a passenger or captain – is encouraged to enter the contest. Images and videos can be from the current boating season or memories from past adventures. The only requirement is that each submission showcase the enjoyment that comes from time spent on a Forward Drive-powered boat.

“We want to thank our customers for choosing a Volvo Penta Forward Drive to power their adventures on the water. The possibilities of fun are endless, and this contest gives boaters a great opportunity to show how they’re enjoying all the versatility aspects this advanced propulsion system can provide,”

said Marcelo Puscar, vice president of marketing for Volvo Penta of the Americas.

Launched in 2015, the Volvo Penta Forward Drive has created an entirely new segment of boating – enabling boatbuilders to design a distinct class of boats that blend the comfort and performance of a traditional sterndrive with the action of a watersport boat in one versatile package. The Forward Drive has gained strong traction within the market throughout the U.S., Canada and beyond with installations in thousands of boats on the water today and approximately 50 different models to choose from.

Beyond the versatility, defining characteristics of the Forward Drive include dependable reliability, ease of use, maximum comfort, powerful performance, superior fuel efficiency and low emission levels, according to Puscar.
