What happened at AGRO SHOW 2024
The Polish Chamber of Commerce for Agricultural Machines and Facilities staged AGRO SHOW on 20–22 September 2024 at Bednary airfield. The organiser counted 76,200 visitors and 670 exhibitors. Tractors, cultivation equipment and loaders shared the open site with seed businesses and service providers. For the Polish equipment market, the show acts as a reference point, where farmers see what is on offer and also how it reaches them through local dealers and workshops.
Field work set the tone. Instead of reading specification sheets, visitors watched machines being prepared, steered and driven through planned passes, and saw how operators coped with the controls. Cultivators raised questions about working depth, tractor power and residue handling. With loaders, attention moved to manoeuvrability, visibility and everyday material handling around the yard. Variable-rate technology also featured in the demonstrations, so precision farming was part of the conversation on the airfield.
Farm owners, contractors, dealers, advisers and agricultural schools were the core audience. Polish buyers value the show because domestic sales and service networks are there in person. Support often decides a purchase: a mechanic who answers the phone at harvest, or a spare part that arrives quickly, can matter more than a striking feature. The seed companies on site linked machinery choices to crop establishment and variety selection, keeping the whole production plan in view.
A day at Bednary was a good basis for planning an on-farm trial rather than a final judgement on any machine. Demonstrations showed what the technology can do on the day. Savings on an individual farm depend on implementation costs, operator training and the quality of existing field data. Advisers preparing investment plans found the show as relevant as farmers shopping for a new cultivator, because it showed which technology Central European farms can actually buy and service.
