EIMA Agrimach, a driver for Indian agriculture

The sixth edition of the international exhibition of agricultural machinery takes place from December 5 to 7 in New Delhi. Organized by Ficci and Federunacoma, the event takes place at a particularly dynamic moment in terms of development of technologies and policies for the primary sector

Once the phase of assigning and setting up the exhibition spaces has been completed, the Eima Agrimach international exhibition, specialized in machinery and equipment for agriculture, forestry and livestock, is about to present its sixth biennial edition in New Delhi. From December 5 to 7, over 430 exhibiting industries are attending with their range of technological products for every type of crop and agricultural activity, in the presence of an audience made up of farmers, mechanization technicians and businesspeople, which in the last edition (December 2017) reached 42 thousand people.

As pointed out by the Ficci Indian Federation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry and the FederUnacoma Italian Agricultural Machinery Manufacturers, the two organizers of the Indian event, the vast area chosen for the showcase is once again Iari Pusa, at the campus of the Indian Institute of Research in Agriculture.

This also symbolically represents the most suitable place for an event that offers the most modern solutions for agriculture in the Subcontinent and in all Asian countries. Over 15,000 square metres are occupied by the exhibition, which includes a part of static display inside the pavilions and a part for dynamic outdoor tests to demonstrate to the public the machinery on display.

The days of the event - explain the organizers, who also rely on the support of the Indian Ministry of Agriculture and the Indian Council for Agricultural Research - include meetings and conferences to focus on the salient issues for the primary sector, and to verify the status and prospects of mechanization in the various areas of the country. Never before has the monitoring of mechanization been important as market volumes have reached record levels in the country (about 800 thousand tractors absorbed in 2018), and important governmental policies for the development of agriculture are being implemented.

EIMA Agrimach therefore takes place in a dynamic moment for the country, and constitutes a promotional and commercial platform that is more than ever useful and promising.
