Agrievolution, the global voice for agricultural mechanization in sustainable agriculture, has transitioned from an industry alliance to a legal nonprofit entity, enhancing its ability to advocate and engage with government agencies and key organizations relating to sustainable global food security.
Founded in 2008 and formally established as an alliance in 2012, Agrievolution has grown to represent more than 6,000 agricultural machinery manufacturers through their association members and stakeholders worldwide. The decision to become a legal entity in 2024 allows the organization to sign formal contracts, strengthen partnerships and increases its credibility in discussions about mechanization’s role in global food security.
“This transition is a natural progression for Agrievolution,” said Alessandro Malavolti, CEO of AMA (Agriculture Machine Accessories) and the organization’s first president. “As a legal entity, we have created a strong foundation to represent the industry, collaborate with global organizations and provide insights that will shape the future of agricultural mechanization and precision agriculture technologies.”
Strengthening Advocacy and Global Influence
Agrievolution’s new legal status enhances its ability to work with important international institutions, including agencies of the United Nations and the World Bank. With agricultural mechanization and precision agricultural technologies playing a growing and significant role in sustainable food production, the organization remains committed to advocating for policies and technologies in support of farmers worldwide.
“With more regulations affecting the agriculture industry, it is essential we provide a unified voice and a platform for information sharing,” Malavolti said. “As a legal entity, Agrievolution can more efficiently coordinate its efforts across regions, ensuring industry advancements and challenges are addressed on a global scale.”
