AGRITECHNICA POSTPONED

The organisers of the Agritechnica ag machinery exhibition that was due to take place in Hannover, Germany at the end of February 2022, confirmed this week that the show will not go ahead as planned.

In an official statement the organisers said, "Over the past two years and with a great deal of energy and optimism, we have been preparing for the world’s leading trade fair for agricultural machinery in order for us all to put on a very special Agritechnica 2022.

"Unfortunately, due to the deteriorating pandemic situation in recent weeks and the resulting current official regulations, a situation has arisen which makes the trouble-free execution of Agritechnica no longer possible. Together with the VDMA Agricultural Machinery Association and the trade fair’s exhibitor advisory board, we have therefore come to the decision that Agirtechnica 2022 cannot take place in Hanover under these conditions. The health and safety of visitors, exhibitors, partners, members and staff have the highest priority in this situation.

"We are very saddened to have to inform you of this cancellation."

Organisers have confirmed that the next edition of Agritechnica will now take place from 12 to 18 November 2023 in its regular cycle.
