This year, it's on, we will visit the Libramont Fair, it's been since 2005 that we want to go there and we magnify each year!

The fair Libramont is the largest fair in Europe entirely devoted to agriculture, forestry (sustainable), use of wood (energy or other), the management of forests and water ... in short not bad stuff in common with econology!

With, and I believe it is an exclusive (world?) Demonstrations in forest, life size, for 2 days! More informations here

Files:

Here is the 2009 general prospectus

Prospectus demonstrations in the Forest


Website and official program for visitors: http://www.foiredelibramont.com/index2. ... esentation

We will go with camcorder and camera, just to give you a little "ecological report"!

ps: I like the "slogan" ... don't you? : Cheesy:

This kind of test (Bucheronnage?) Is well known in the Basque Country (Trontzariak)
and broadcast on local TV ... to see absolutely with the Basque showdowns. :P

Libramont: two people deprived of their liberty following the incidents

Two people were deprived of their liberty on Friday as a result of the incidents that took place on the fairground in Libramont. They are reproached for the degradation of their property with violence and threats, in gangs.

One of these two people is also being prosecuted for rebellion. A third individual is wanted, confirmed the floor of Neufchâteau. The two apprehended persons will be presented this Saturday to the magistrate of Neufchâteau. Protesters burned flags and demolished stands on Friday during the inauguration of the Libramont Agricultural Fair. (HIE)

Ayé, it went "well" despite a few showers and a return under a thunderstorm (soaked, long live hats!):

The atmosphere was a bit special because there was tension with dairy farmers ... see the different posters in the photos below and the federal stand "ransacked"! Tensions have and will perhaps continue (the Fair had just opened when we got there) ...

Arrival at the Fair (taken mostly for the message in the background):

Image

A range of "all organic" machines (bio diesel, bio lubricant ...)
Image

The stand of the federal space sacked

Image

Image

Construction Machinery Civil Engineering
Image

The "sandbox" of agricultural construction machinery demo:
Image

A Claas tractor with swivel cabin (not far from terminator!), Too Class (hhiihih) !!

Image

A big pork ... much heavier than Bernard Tapie!

Image

A contest of white Belgian Blue cows (the same as Maloche discovered in real), guys, you can rinse the eye without fear, it's just ... females!

Image
Image
Apparently, they are not doped "hormones" ...

Demo Marshal Ferrier (I made a short video):

Image


Another claim poster (note the hihihi correction ...) ...

Image

... yet, the (a?) solution to the difficulties of dairy farmers was nevertheless present, I named Latteria, for automated direct sale of Milk:

Image

One detail caught my eye on this Fendt tractor:

Image
Image

Is this doping with water? Or catalytic converter / FAP requiring a high temperature (hence the insulation)? I'm leaning for the 2i case ... but?

Sorting at the source: Image

A little gardener Robocop?

Image

And to finish the slogan of the fair: "We are all children of the earth" (with a capital letter it would have been even better!)

Image

It is a battery compatible with a whole range of garden size product!

ps: quiz question to the Belgians, who is this gentleman in a dark suit? He seemed quite "important" (escort of 2 bikers, photographers ...)

Pursued for rebellion? Waw ... rebellion it's the term!

Your webmaster was sent special and could see the (small) damage, see the photos above ...

As a bonus, a photo of the "good guys" who took care of the grain:

The "important gentleman" is, I believe, Archduke Lorenz of Habsburg, husband of Princess Astrid.
Princess Astrid is daughter of the current King Albert II. Long time second on the list of succession to the throne, but it is no longer since Prince Philip has children. It could nevertheless be called to reign temporarily in the event of an accident occurring to Philippe.

Oh I knew you would have the answer my dear elephant! I think you're right after a few checks on google ...

Waw, we saw in real terms an archduke of the Hapsburgs ... the class!

I didn't know that the throne was cedable by "union"; it's not like in England where the queen reigns?
