The organisers of Agritechnica 2021, which is scheduled to take place in November this year, say there are signs of very good participation by agricultural machinery manufacturers from both Germany and abroad.

This announcement follows the confirmation last week from John Deere that they wont attend the Hanover show in 2021 because they do not currently believe the safety of all attendees can be fulfilled.

The organiser of Agritechnica, DLG (German Agricultural Society), say they expect more than 2,000 exhibitors to attend.

"The number of exhibitor registrations to date underscores the importance of Agritechnica as a global platform for agricultural machinery manufacturers and their suppliers," said Freya von Czettritz, project manager for Agritechnica. "Numerous leading agricultural machinery companies have already signed up or are currently in the planning stages of their trade show appearance at the show in Hanover in November. 

“Together with our 'Safe Business' concept for the physical trade fair in Hanover in November, we are working closely with our exhibitors to create the best possible planning conditions for safe and successful participation in the world's leading trade fair for agricultural machinery," added Freya von Czettritz.

Companies that have already registered as exhibitors for this year's show include Claas, AGCO, SDF, Kubota, Amazone, Kuhn, Kverneland, Krone, Horsch, Lemken, Pöttinger, Grimme and Väderstad.

Also from the show organisers this May will be the “Agritechnica digital' platform. Six months ahead of the actual trade show, exhibitors will be able to host their own events on the service and deliver information about their products and services.
