2013 is a historic moment for AMAZONE subsidiary, BBG Bodenbearbeitungsgeräte Leipzig, as it reaches the milestone of being 150 years old. The roots of the company originate from the foundation of Messrs. Rud. Sack by Rudolph Sack in 1863. Rudolph Sack was a pioneer of agricultural technology who nowadays is regarded as the inventor of the iron plough and at the same time as father of the industrial manufacture of agricultural machinery in Germany. The development of the business of Messrs. Rud. Sack, from back then until current times, also represents a mirror image of the industrial and political development in Germany today. In 2013 plough production returns to Leipzig It meets the philosophy of AMAZONE to successfully continue in the future the spirit of innovation and the entrepreneurship of the founder Rudolph Sack. So, in this sense, the plough returns to Leipzig in 2013 because AMAZONE extends its programme of soil tillage equipment with the newly designed, modern Cayron reversible plough. With this important innovation and extension to its agricultural product programme, AMAZONE continues -- exactly 150 years after the foundation of Messrs. Rud. Sack -- the long and successful tradition of plough production at this site.
