The Austrian Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water, Andrä Rupprechter, was greeted at Expo Milano 2015 by Christian Huber, Senior Director of CNH Industrial Austria, and Rudolf Hinterberger Case IH Business Director, Austria.
In a presentation to the Minister, Mr. Huber explained that, as a leading global agricultural machinery brand, Case IH was pleased to support Expo's theme of Feeding the Planet. Energy for Life: "Case IH is a long trusted partner of professional farmers worldwide, and its innovative, efficient and resource-saving products and solutions support the sustainable production of agricultural goods."

1842. The brand takes a role of responsibility in addressing the question of feeding the planet, an issue that affects both present and future.
