SEVERAL new pieces of machinery and up-to-date agronomy will be on display at the forthcoming Croptec event, held on November 28 and 29 at the East of England Showground, in Peterborough.

Now in its fourth year, CropTec brings together farmers, industry experts and researchers, plus the latest products and services from more than 170 exhibitors and a number of seminars held throughout the two days.

For those looking for ways to improve their business prospects in the face of rising political and economic pressure, this event is an opportunity to listen to and quiz some of the best minds in the agricultural sector.

The CropTec Show’s highly informative technical seminar programme, also returns, which covers four key areas: crop establishment; crop nutrition; crop protection and crop breeding.

Specialist knowledge hubs – short presentations delivering key take-away messages – covering black-grass, biosolutions, cereal disease, oilseed rape management and the spraying technology also feature this year's feature.

The popular sprayer demo area returns, where visitors can drive some of the most advanced sprayers in the market will make a return and the soil compaction area, featuring Michelin, is back again for 2018, demonstrating the effects compaction has below ground level and how it can be minimised.

* The event is free to attend, provided tickets are booked in advance.

Visitors to The CropTec Show will be able to collect BASIS and NRoSO points on both days of the event.
