Agritechnica, Europe’s major agricultural machinery show, has returned to its routine of being held every two years at Hanover in Germany, with the German Agricultural Society (DLG) claiming that stand space is already sold out.

The organisation expects over 2,700 exhibitors, spread throughout 23 halls, to be present, 65% of which will be from outside of Germany.

All the leading global farm equipment manufacturers are said to be committed to the show, with a broad spectrum of specialist machinery companies, component suppliers, and a strong presence of new ventures also having booked a place.

The world at Agritechnica

More than 50 countries will be represented by exhibitors, the majority of which originate from Germany, followed by Italy, China, Turkey, The Netherlands, France, India, and of course, Ireland.

DLG tell us that it has arranged the machinery and equipment in a clearly structured way, with well-defined product areas for each category, including autonomous systems, field robots, and advanced digital technologies.

Busy diary

Not only are the exhibitors stands to be precisely delineated, but there is also a comprehensive schedule for the week. A ‘7 Days – 7 Topics’ initiative intended to deliver focused events each day for specific visitor groups.
