AGCO’s Cumberland Brand Wins AE50 Award for New Feed System

ASSUMPTION, IL — Cumberland, the poultry equipment brand of AGCO, has won an AE50 award for its new Flex-Flo XD ULTRA Unloader feed system.

The award was bestowed by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, an educational and scientific organization dedicated to the advancement of engineering applicable to agricultural, food and biological systems. AE50 awards recognize top innovative products each year based on significant engineering advancement and impact for the markets they serve.
