The inaugural AgTeCH17: Build it, Use it, Profit forum and in-field demonstrations was delivered by CHDC in partnership with Queensland’s Department of Agriculture and Fisheries.

240 people from across Central Queensland and beyond attended the sold-out forum and in-field demonstrations in Emerald, which explored the future of agribusiness and showcased the latest innovations to improve farm and business profitability.

Feedback from the day included “AgTeCH17 was hard to beat in every respect” and “next time round, you should stick to the same formula, because this one clearly worked very well”.

Its success prompted CHDC to make AgTeCH a regular feature of the regional calendar. CHDC also supported the Mungindi Cropping Group to host its own sold-out AgTeCH in northern NSW in 2018.
