New Holland appointed Official Partner to the Goodwood Estate
New Holland Agriculture, as part of the CNH Industrial group, is an Official Partner to the Goodwood Estate, the unique sporting estate in West Sussex.
HOME to the Dukes of Richmond since the 1690s and centered around one of the UK’ s finest Jacobean Grade I Listed country houses, CNH Industrial was the natural choice as an Official Partner for the Goodwood Estate. Given its vast portfolio of activities, which range from organic farming, a luxury hotel and a gourmet farm-to-fork restaurant through to its world-class motorsport events the Festival of Speed and Revival, golfing and horseracing venues, CNH Industrial was a natural choice for the Estate’ s varied requirements thanks to the product diversity of its brands.
Goodwood Home Farm, part of the estate, is one of Europe’ s oldest and largest lowland organic farms and New Holland Agriculture is providing a range of modern agricultural equipment, focused on improving the productivity and efficiency of the farm. Furthermore, the brand is introducing Precision Farming technology, and as a result, the Estate will benefit from a greater level of agronomic information. The brand’ s tractors, combine harvesters, telehandlers and hay and forage equipment are used on a daily and seasonal basis in both arable and livestock environments.
For the New Holland brand, the partnership represents a proud opportunity to showcase the product range in superb surroundings and invite existing and future customers to the Estate.

A Cornish dad and daughter team’ s plea for help with their local Beach Guardian project, inspired Nissan to volunteer its toughest pickup to help clear rubbish from some of Cornwall’ s remotest beaches.
Beach Guardian is the brainchild of Emily Stevenson( 21), a marine biology student, and her father Rob( 50). The pair have been clearing waste from beaches in Cornwall for 10 years. They decided to set up the community group after realising the plastic problem was getting worse. They amassed an army of local volunteers to help, but they were struggling to reach remote locations and remove bulky rubbish with their family car, so they posted a request for help on social media.
Nissan responded by volunteering the new Navara OFF-ROADER AT32, which can be fitted with a snorkel and is designed for the most extreme landscapes. It helped Beach Guardian take on their most challenging beach plastic clean-up to date, reaching over rocky terrain and removing debris like plastic nets that had been deeply embedded in the sand for more than two years.
More than eight million tonnes of plastic end up in the world’ s oceans every year with devastating consequences for marine wildlife, fisheries and tourism. During its recent Great British Beach Clean Up, the Marine Conservation Society found 718 pieces of litter for every 100 metre stretch of UK beach surveyed.
