So far 1,900 exhibitors from 44 countries have booked stands at the world’s largest exhibition for agricultural machinery and equipment, Agritechnica 2011, to be held in Hanover in November. As the organiser DLG (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft – German Agricultural Society) reports, this represents an increase in exhibitor figures of about ten per cent by comparison with the same time two years ago.
“We see growth in both domestic and international exhibitor numbers”, explains Agritechnica Project Manager Freya von Rhade. “Participation from Denmark, France, Italy, the Netherlands and North America in particular is conspicuously higher than it was in 2009.” It is moreover notable that over 300 newcomer exhibitors are planning to present their products and services at Agritechnica for the first time. Agritechnica will open its gates from 15 to 19 November 2011 (Preview Days on 13 and 14 November) at the Exhibition Grounds in Hanover. The last exhibition two years ago was attended by 2,300 exhibitors from 46 countries. More than 355,000 visitors, including 80,000 international visitors, came to Hanover to gather information about new and further developments in agricultural machinery and equipment. Read More
