Spiro is an agriculture farm, setup as family
business, located in the central part of Romania and consisting on a surface of
160ha. We mainly cultivate all type of corn (feeding, mill, silage and
sweet-corn), rapeseed, wheat, barley, oats, peas, beans, alfalfa, sugar-beet,
potato. There is also a component for sheep raising consisting of 300 sheep,
mixt bread of English Suffolk and native variety. Farm activity started one
generation before, in 1992 and was took over under current management from
2011. It benefits from economical and juridical expertise of my brother (we are
partners), financial knowledge of my mother (she is the accountant), technical
advice of my cousin (he has mechanical expertise) and support of two other
employs. We encourage idea of introducing new technologies on our farm in order
to improve work efficiency, reduce man fatigue and environmental impact. We
tested and evaluated already automatic steering guidance on our machines and
