AGROSALON 2019

Agricultural equipment and machinery is constantly evolving. I am glad that Agrosalón presents innovative products and provides a stable foundation for expert communication in the sector. The Agrosalón Fair is regularly attended by the manufacturers, retailers, importers and foreign exhibitors from the most important brands of agricultural machinery – and Agrokomplex NATIONAL EXHIBITION CENTER š.p. provides them with space in the covered exhibition halls even for the largest machines.

The manufacturers of agricultural technology are responsive to the current needs on the market, which is driven by innovation and new ideas. The current trends are aimed at increasing the efficiency of work and reducing the operating costs, but attention is also given to the care for the soil environment and production of emissions. The manufacturers of agricultural technology help the farmers achieve these objectives, they increase the work comfort of the operators, driving comfort of the vehicles and introduce new attachments and equipment with new electronic devices and applications.

Agrosalón also includes an expert program mapping the most current topics in mechanization, technology and economic management in the agricultural industry. The Agribusiness Conference will analyze the crisis of human resources in the agricultural sector. The invited experts will discuss the shortage of workers in agriculture and try to answer the following questions: “How to get people into businesses? Can they be replaced by innovation?“

The Agrosalón fair will also include an award ceremony for the “Most Innovative Machine of the Year” and the “Fair Award”, which is usually handed out in five categories.

I wish to thank the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development for its patronage over the Fair, which gives this event additional honor.

I believe that even this year Agrosalón will be a prestigious showcase of agricultural technology and it will fully meet your expectations.

I wish you all the best!
