AgriScot, now widely regarded as one of the premier events in UK agriculture, continues to develop its appeal to all sectors of the industry…both to the trade and to a wide cross section of farmers eager to seek out the products, services, advice and information necessary for their farming businesses.

CropTec an educational focussed and specialised technical event which aims to help farmers develop profitable and sustainable farming. Concentrating on the key areas of crop protection, crop nutrients and the inextricable linked, response related areas of plant breeding and precision, all of which hold the key to profitability and compliance.

There will be over 75 acres available as demonstration plots on this fantastic site, supported by trade stands providing the opportunity to see and learn about the latest machinery and grassland technologies.

With serious agriculture very much at the core of the Royal Highland Show, a key issue for the organisers is to ensure that all the equipment, technical know-how and advice is on hand to help farmers and landowners maximise returns from their businesses. It is essential that the show reflects trends in the industry and with that in mind, the organisers last year placed a special emphasis on precision farming. The interest that the theme generated was so significant that it is being repeated this year, and the agricultural business section will once again include all of the UK’s leading manufacturers, dealers and specialists, many of whom will feature new technology.

Along with an exciting four-days of livestock competitions, with entries travelling from far and wide to compete, the show has something to interest everyone through its wide range of activities including forestry, horticulture, crafts, countryside sports, shopping, food and drink and a 12-hour programme each day of exciting entertainment, attractions and displays.
