PotatoEurope 2010

The next top-level meeting of European potato experts, the PotatoEurope exhibition, will be held at the Bockerode Estate in Springe-Mittelrode near Hanover on 8 and 9 September 2010. The entire potato world will be presenting a complete range of information covering all aspects of the potato. This will provide international potato experts with a unique platform for acquiring the latest knowledge about all issues surrounding modern potato production and processing. The spotlight will be on the areas of breeding, fertilising, plant protection, machinery and equipment for production and processing, as well as trade. The technical offerings will be rounded off by trial plots, demonstrations of machinery and information events. PotatoEurope 2010 is being organised by DLG (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft – German Agricultural Society) together with the potato industry association (Union der Deutschen Kartoffelwirtschaft - UNIKA) and K+S KALI GmbH. The organisers expect some 200 exhibitors and around 10,000 expert visitors. The closing date for applications from exhibitors presenting trial plots and demonstration machinery and equipment is 29 January 2010. Campus stands – on grass or in the tent halls – can be booked up to 14 May 2010.
