Farmers, contractors and tyre-kickers will see some €45m worth of machinery on display at the Ploughing next week.
According to the National Ploughing Association (NPA), the value of all equipment at the Ploughing is in excess of €45m.
The NPA is hopeful of record crowds again this year after more than 280,000 passed through the gates of the event last year.
The Irish Farmers Journal will have livestock demonstrations at our stand (282) at 10am, 12pm and 2pm each of the three days.
You can follow unrivalled and exclusive coverage of the 2017 National Ploughing Championships on www.farmersjournal.ie.
