Farming machinery and techniques
to launch at Notts Event
Local farmers are looking forward to the return of a popular machinery show
where new products, machinery and technology are set to be unveiled.
he Midlands Machinery Show
takes place on Wednesday 22
and Thursday 23 November at
Newark Showground,
Nottinghamshire.
Around 200 agricultural
businesses are exhibiting at the event –
organised by the Newark and Nottinghamshire
Agricultural Society - which will not only give
them the opportunity to discuss advances in
their products and services, but also allow
farmers to discover how such techniques can
help to improve the productivity of their land.
Joe Allen from Gainsborough-based Chafer
Machinery has exhibited at the event since it
was set up four years ago and says it has
reaped dividends for the firm, which
manufactures specialist spraying equipment.
He said: “Midlands Machinery Show is an
ideal opportunity for farmers and agricultural
businesses to congregate and discuss how the
farming industry is faring across the country.
“They really benefit from meeting others
within their community, seeing new technology
and actually being able to spend time talking to
other exhibitors about how their machinery and
products can benefit their farms.”
George Taylor, Midlands Machinery Show
manager said: “Technology is advancing at a
fast rate within the agricultural industry, and it is

really important farmers invest their time in
attending events, such as the Midlands
Machinery Show, to determine how this can be
used to improve productivity and efficiency.”
As well as new technology being
showcased, soil health and drones which can
help improve precision farming, are being
discussed as part of a series of expert seminars
by crop precisionist Hutchinsons. JRH Water
Management, which specialises in rain water
harvesting and water technology, will be also
be holding a professional seminar. Woldmarsh
are sponsoring an off-road course where
visitors can try out 4 x 4 vehicles being brought
in by six dealerships.
Joe continued: “Midlands Machinery Show is
an event to do business, and I am very much
looking forward to this year’s event to
showcase our crop spraying equipment, and a
selection of chemical and fertiliser applicators,
whilst also networking with other farmers from
across the region and beyond.”
