Max Eyth Young Talent Award goes to a Fendt Bachelor’s Thesis

“The Max Eyth Young Talent Award is hugely prestigious and is awarded in recognition for the work of Young engineers in the agricultural engineering sector,” says Benno Pichlmaier, AGCO Director Global Technology & Innovation. “Our students often work on new, complex systems, and provide valuable input into series production solutions which are created as a result of their work. We’re always delighted when this is acknowledged by the VDI award.”

Tobias Pfetsch studied Mechanical Engineering at the Ulm University of Applied Sciences. He continued working for the Fendt brand after graduation, and works as an engineer on the design of the Fendt Tigo loading wagon series at the Waldstetten production site in Bavaria.

His relationship with farming and agricultural equipment has been a close one since childhood, as his parents are full-time farmers on a dairy and arable farm in Blaustein (Alb-Donau-Kreis).
