According to a study on the Canadian agri-business sector carried out by ICE Toronto on behalf of FederUnacoma , Canada's agricultural geography is projected to experience a period of transformation in the coming years, facilitated by climate change. Mondo Macchina magazine, FederUnacoma publishes that the mitigation of the harsh Canadian climate, due to rising temperatures, is expected to increase the size of the cultivable area and encourage greater crop diversification. The agro-mechanical sector, which today has 600 thousand tractors and 120,000 combine harvesters, is called upon to meet

Italian Exports of Stone Machinery and Equipment Italian exports of machinery and equipment slightly negative in the first 10 months of 2022. In the first ten months of 2022, the value of Italian exports of machines, tools and other equipment for the processing of natural stone was not as good as for natural stones. On the contrary, it decreased by 2.3% compared to the same period of the previous year. If we consider the top 10 of the main buyers of Italian machinery and equipment, Italian sales indicate that in the United States by 38.8% (ranked first in sales), in Germany by 14% (ranked

The year 2021 was extremely positive for the Italian industry of machine tools, robotics and automation, which reported double-digit increases for all key economic indicators. This trend should continue even in 2022, the year when all the ground lost in 2020 should be recovered. This is in short what was illustrated by Barbara Colombo, president of UCIMU-SISTEMI PER PRODURRE, the Italian machine tools, robots and automation systems manufacturers' association, during the traditional end-of-year press conference. As highlighted by the preliminary year’s data processed by the Studies Dept. &

The index of orders intake for Italian textile machinery, as processed by ACIMIT, the Association of Italian textile machinery manufacturers, for the period ranging from April-June 2021, was up 214% compared to the same 2020 period. The value of the index was attested at 150.7 points (basis: 2015 = 100), a result that was no doubt influenced by the comparison with a quarter, from April-June 2020, in which orders were obviously at a minimum, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. An analysis of the index of orders intake for the first six months of 2021 confirms a clearly positive business dynamic for

Italian imports of plastics and rubber processing machinery racked up an impressive 23% increase in the first half of 2018 with regard to the same period in 2017.

While still well into the black at over one billion euros, the balance of trade has bogged down somewhat, losing over 7%. This is the situation captured by the statistical studies centre of Amaplast based on foreign trade data published by ISTAT. The dynamism of purchases from
