A decision earlier this year to change the date of Agromek has been reversed, according to the organizers. Agromek 2006 will be held January 17^th – 21^st and Agromek 2007 will be held Janurary 16^th – 20^th. More information on northern Europe's premier farm show for new technology in agriculture may be found on their website.

The Chairman of the Agromek Exhibition Committee, Managing Director Hans Sørensen says, “The Agromek Exhibition Committee has now unanimously decided to annul the earlier decision concerning changing the date of Agromek. This decision has been taken on the basis of a meeting of exhibitors, questionnaires and other information. This means that Agromek will continue to held every year in Week 3 or 4 in the month of January.”

Mark your calendars now. This new decision means that Agromek 2006 will be held during the period 17^th – 21^st January 2006 and that Agromek 2007 will be held during the period 16^th – 20^th January 2007.

Hans Sørensen said the original decision, now reversed, to move Agromek from January to December was made earlier this year due to a false impression that several machine and implement exhibitors would pull out if Agromek was not changed to late Autumn. At the same time, the Committee had gained the impression that other exhibitors would support such a change.

Hans Sørensen has emphasized that, unfortunately, it was soon clear that many exhibitors were upset with the decision to move Agromek to December. He explained that a meeting with exhibitors, which was followed up by a questionnaire, clearly showed that the majority desired that Agromek remain in January.

Sørensen says, “The Exhibition Committee has therefore decided that Agromek will continue to be held every year in January. We have now sent out this information to all Agromek exhibitors.”

The Chairman has also stated that the Committee has maintained its decision that it will be possible for the individual exhibitor to exhibit at Agromek every other year if so required.

Agromek is arranged by the Danish Manufacturers of Agricultural Machinery and the Danish Farming associations.
