The practical demonstrations of implements and machinery are a unique feature and distinguish the NAMPO Agricultural Trade Show from any other agricultural show.
It allows the farmer to view the agricultural equipment on a comparative and non-competitive basis under full working conditions. 80 hectares of land, cultivated with different crops, have been set aside for this purpose.
Special arrangements for specific one -on-one demonstrations outside the normal programme times are possible. Besides a special programme focusing on the needs of the farmer’s wife, there is also a farm patents competition for farmers. Farmers who have invented or designed or adapted equipment to solve their own practical problems are invited to share these inventions with their fellow farmers. Tuesday 12 – Friday 15 May 2015 demonstrations.
