The Land caught up with Devil Ark at AgQuip:
The CBA Women in Business lunch is under way at AgQuip.
The Land live streamed some of CWA of NSW chief executive Danica Leys’ speech.
The Land site was getting busier at the event:
EARLIER
WEATHER FORECAST: Sunny with a top of 20. No rain in sight as yet for what is traditionally a wet time of the year.
IT'S HERE
FOR three days of the year, Gunnedah is the nation's agricultural capital city.
What were country roads could be passed up as city streets, what were bare hotel rooms are filled with visitors and stall holders and where you could get a seat at your favourite cafe - you might be in for a wait.
AgQuip is back on again, and over the next three days we'll see almost 100,000 people passing through the gates where 3000 businesses will have their stalls on show across 26 hectares of sprawling plains.
And if you think we're excited, don't forget about the locals who are abuzz with what is to come.
Join us each day for our take on AgQuip and the stories that come out of the big event.
Don't forget to share photos with us, tag them as #AgQuip and we'll add them to our daily galleries.
