Get up close to the latest crop establishment machinery and thinking at Tillage-Live 2022
Tillage-Live, the national crop establishment demonstration, organised by the Agricultural Engineers Association (AEA) on behalf of the industry, returns to Scotland for it’s 31st year to be held at Dunbar.
The event, which is taking place on Wednesday 28th September, will showcase leading machinery manufacturers with demonstrations of crop establishment technology including ploughs, cultivators, sprayers, conventional, strip tillage and direct drills.
There will be opportunities to see demonstrations in the live arena, where manufacturers will be able to show their machinery working on stubble as well as several different crops. As usual, Tillage-Live offers visitors the chance to get up close to the machinery and will also be able to see a selection of sprayers which will be exhibiting throughout the day.
Tillage-Live remains the sole national annual working crop establishment event, and this year’s demo at Dunbar will be the first chance for growers to see many of this year’s new machines in action, in real post-harvest conditions.
With working demonstrations from manufacturers including: Amazone, Horsch, KRM, Kuhn, Kverneland, John Deere, McCormick, Ovlac, SUMO, Opico and Vaderstad the day promises a real insight into professional crop establishment techniques.
Visitors can also attend the Sprayer demonstrations and the static exhibition area which provides an opportunity to discuss new ideas with industry-leading experts. This year’s knowledge trail includes a look at soils and cover crops as well as tyres and soil protection.
Kayleigh Holden, event organiser, explained ‘the AEA are extremely pleased that Tillage-Live will be taking place at Dunbar in 2022. The site, which was previously used in 2018, offers excellent facilities for manufacturers to showcase their machinery to potential customers and visitors and we would like to thank Eweford Farm for hosting the event once again’.
This year’s Tillage-Live takes place on Wednesday 28th September with the site easily accessible as it is located next to the A1 at Spott Roundabout, Dunbar; please follow the road signs to the visitor’s entrance to the event.
