Expect amazing exhibits

If the first day is any indication of the week to come, the New Zealand National Agricultural Fieldays is shaping up to be a cracker. The exhibitors at this year’s agribusiness event are taking more space at the venue as they understand the benefit of being part of the largest ag exhibition in the Southern Hemisphere. To get the most out of exhibiting, companies enhance their sites in ways they feel will attract the public.

An exhibit with a point of difference is the AgResearch site PF15-16, exhibiting in the Premier Feature area of the Mystery Creek Pavilion. AgResearch has undertaken a vast amount of investigations in the agricultural industry and have had a recent GE breakthrough. The advancement could lead to lowering methane emissions while at the same time giving the stock higher intakes of protein. The emissions released by cows are illustrated on their site, with 25kgs of cow dung; the amount one cow produces daily. Take time at the

AgResearch site to check out the other facts on cow emissions and productive farming solutions.

Another company attracting buyers in a unique way is Alltech. The global animal and nutrition company invites visitors to ‘dig for gold’ in a pit of Yea-Sacc feed. According to the business, the Yea-Sacc feed is the gold. The product is a completely natural yeast based animal feed used for efficiency in farming. The company also specialise in other yeast products all of which result from extensive yeast fermentation technology. So come inside the Mystery Creek Pavilion to dig for some gold for your chance to win some awesome prizes at the Alltech PD33-34.

While at Fieldays you must visit the Walker Mowers site F95 on F Street. Their unique mowers are extremely manoeuvrable with an O turn, allowing the machine to pirouette on the spot. The mowers are also excellent at climbing steep surfaces and hills. The most impressive feature is the deck on the front of the machine, usually located under the drivers seat. The Walker Mower range is particularly easy to use and to prove this, they have women demonstrating the machine. Check out the extensive range of multi deck mowers which can catch, mulch and side throw grass at the Walker Mowers site on F Street.

New Zealand National Agricultural Fieldays are held 16 to 19 June, 2010 at Mystery Creek Events Centre, ten minutes south of Hamilton. Fieldays is proudly supported by strategic partners; The National Bank and the University of Waikato.
