As one of the nation’s leading agricultural field days, Commonwealth Bank AgQuip is recognised as a collective centre of innovation for the rural sector.
“Australian farmers are recognised as world leaders in best practice and efficiency,” said Barry Harley, General Manager of Rural Press Events, organisers of AgQuip, “and part of the reason for that is they are continually seeking out new products to help them work better and smarter on their properties.
