The SIMA-SIMAGENA 2015 International Agri-Business Show was held last week in Paris Nork Villepinte and the slogan at the show was "INNOVATION FIRST!" (Focused on innovation, with 600 new products shown this year by exhibitors and, more precisely, the new technologies spearheading precision agriculture). This farm fair is one of the most important in Europe together with Agritechnica (Germany), EIMA (Italy) or FIMA (Spain). In this edition, the show had 1,740 exhibitors (1,446 in 2009, 1,550 in 2011 and 1,700 in 2013)... 13 Spanish companies were there. About visitors, SIMA 2015 has just closed its doors after welcoming 238,848 professional visitors in five days, 23% of whom hailed from one of five continents! (208,550 visitors in 2009, 209,800 visitors in 2011and 248,800 visitors in 2013). This result is almost identical to that achieved in 2013, a record year in terms of attendance, and is particularly satisfying in the current tense economic climate. Also, it had 27 hectares of exhibition space and over 50 forums and events (international meetings, technical talks, flashback area,...). We have never visited this farm fair... we hope to visit it in the next edition... it will be pretty interesting.
Regarding innovation awards results, two gold medals were assigned (new panoramic cab of Claas Arion 400 Series and new John Deere high-speed precision seed drill), 3 silver medals for Berthoud, John Deere y Kverneland Group companies and finally 18 special mentions.
Our follower Isabel Báez (journalist of Nekané Comunicación S.L. company) sent us some pictures, mainly, about Spanish exhibitors of AGRAGEX and her visit. We are pleased to see that many of them are our sponsors (Bellota Agrisolutions, Solá Group, Arcusin, etc.).
While others international farm fairs are coming, we could visit Demoagro farm fair in May. It is a special show where visitors can test all machinery without limits... we recommend it for you.
You can see videos and more pictures from the official website of SIMA... we hope you enjoy them.
