ABOUT POTATO DAYS UK
Welcome to Potato Days UK – made by the DLG – organisers of the world’s major agricultural events and shows, including AGRITECHNICA. We are excited to be supported by potato industry expert partners to bring this exciting and internationally recognised event to the UK for the first time in 2024.
Potato Days UK is a field days event where the complete potato production and supply chain is on show. Combining trade stands with crop plots, expert talks and discussions with live machinery demonstrations, it is a unique opportunity to explore the latest innovations and developments in the sector at first hand. Although new to the UK, Potato Days is part of the well-established Potato Europe family of sector-specialist events.
Building on our unique industry experience and network, Potato Days UK is an event that will support farmers, growers and the wider value chain to succeed, through sustainable potato production to meet the increasing demands on the sector. Our aim is to create the essential platform for industry professionals to meet, share knowledge and see the latest machinery and technology in action.
Potato Days UK. By Farmers. For Farmers.
