Connection and education at the centre of renewed ag innovation event
Registrations now open for AgSmart Connect in Tamworth in March, 2024
There’s a new name and a sharpened focus, but an event that has showcased agricultural technology for the past two years is returning with the same promise of highlighting to the industry the enormous potential and opportunity in the agricultural innovation sector.
Organised by ACM Rural Events, AgSmart Connect is back in Tamworth from March 6 to 7 next year, where it was first staged in 2022, with exhibitor registrations and sponsorship opportunities now open.
Harvesting homegrown potential
AgTech Angels and ACM Rural Events partner to showcase AgTech innovation
ACM Rural Events, the organisers of Australia's largest field days, AgQuip, is proud to announce the inaugural AgSmart Expo, a two-day event dedicated to showcasing the latest advancements and innovations in agricultural technology (AgTech). Set to take place on September 7 at the Bendigo Exhibition Centre, AgSmart Expo not only highlights the exciting developments in AgTech but also marks the launch of ‘Pitch to Paddock’, an AgTech Angel Investor Network (AAIN) chapter startup pitch event.
For the first time, the Inspector–General of Water Compliance (IGWC) will be attending rural Australia’s pinnacle event: AgQuip.
And what a year for the IGWC to attend, celebrating 50 years of agricultural excellence. The Inspector–General, the Honourable Troy Grant says the organisation’s attendance at this year’s event comes at a crucial point in water compliance and enforcement across the Murray–Darling Basin.
On site at the 2023 FarmFest, they will be showcasing the newly released D5 Evolution Cart, their new model that is more intelligent, dynamic and self-assured than ever.
For many primary producers, the impact of droughts, floods, escalating production costs and staff shortages has led to challenging times.
But all who live on the land know these ups and downs will come and go and as most are currently enjoying a better run of seasonal conditions and commodity prices, many are looking forward to getting back to events like the Aon AgQuip Field Days in Gunnedah in August.
One of the challenges attending Australia’s largest field days is how do you get around the 34-hectare site and see all the 3,000 plus companies exhibiting?
With safety requirements restricting the number of vehicles allowed to operate in pedestrian corridors on the site, the organisers are always searching for ways to make the experience at AgQuip field day a more pleasant one.
AgQuip – Australia’s premier agricultural field days – is always at the forefront of providing a showcase for new agtech products and 2022 will be no exception.
Innovation in the rural sector is a key highlight of the three-day event as participating companies take the opportunity to launch new agtech products and services.
The Aon AgQuip field days has all interests covered. To complement the stellar array of agricultural products on the field, there is an impressive display of lifestyle related products to be found in the Shopping Arcade, outdoor Market Place and the new Lifestyle Lane (LL/01-20) on the northern end of the field. Hugely popular and always filled to capacity these special areas cater for a diversifying AgQuip market.
Exploring the expansive 34 hectares of the Aon AgQuip field days has never been easier thanks to the event’s free smartphone app.
The simple-to-use information and research tool is not only designed for pre-planning your visit, most importantly it will be your handy on-site ‘mate’ as you navigate the field day site.
