In Konya, the agricultural heartland of Türkiye, Tüyap is gearing up for the International Konya Agriculture Fair’s 23rd edition in April 2027, uniting farm machinery, digital technologies and global trade. EIMA International in Bologna will showcase the event to European industry professionals.
Konya, Türkiye: The 23rd International Konya Agriculture Fair is scheduled for 6-10 April 2027, with the Konya Chamber of Commerce Tüyap Konya International Fair Center as host venue. Tüyap Konya Fairs Inc. is organising the event, which will link international buyers with technology providers and agricultural machinery manufacturers.

The breadbasket of Türkiye builds machines too
As well as holding the largest expanse of farmland in Türkiye, Konya ranks among the country’s leading hubs for agricultural machinery production. The exhibition brings this manufacturing base into contact with distributors, buyers and farm businesses looking for equipment and technology suppliers.
“Konya combines agricultural production with a strong machinery manufacturing industry. Through the fair, we aim to bring these capabilities closer to international buyers, including European importers and distributors,” said Tüyap Konya Fairs Inc. General Manager İlhan Ersözlü. “Our focus is on creating opportunities for manufacturers to establish business relationships and reach new markets.”
Young agritech firms find a platform
Agricultural mechanization will be represented in full, from planting equipment and tractors to balers, harvesting machinery, and crop protection and soil preparation systems.
Visitors will also find renewable energy solutions, environmental services, agricultural software, livestock technologies and irrigation equipment, placing established machinery alongside newer production technologies under one roof.
Returning to the programme, the AgriFuture Stage will host seminars and panels with international participants and industry specialists, covering trends in technology, agricultural production and the future of the sector.
In a dedicated Start-up Area, agricultural entrepreneurs in Türkiye will present technologies and solutions of their own, creating a further point of contact between young companies and seasoned industry professionals.
Promotion in Italy targets new visitors
