I'm trying to make a list of all the major Ag shows (not including the county shows which have no interest in attracting farmers) - I know I'm missing loads, but drawing a blank. I have:

  • LAMMA
  • Dairy Tech
  • Cereals
  • Grounsdwell
  • Sprayer Day
  • Dairy Day
  • Tillage Live
  • Croptec
  • Grassland and Muck
  • Pig and Poultry
  • NSA Sheep Event
  • Midland Machinery Show
  • YAMs
  • Fruit Focus
  • Viticulture Live
  • Farm and Business Innovation
  • Agriscot
  • Farm Expo
  • National Ploughing Championships
  • The Arable Event
  • Dairy Show
  • Agri South
Which one's am I missing

Edit to clarify - I'm interested in shows where farmers make up the majority of attendees. While I like the county shows, they attract the public more than farmers, even though they are great days for farmers to attend.

These are great farming shows but majority of attendees are the public.
  • Royal Welsh
  • Royal Highland
  • Royal Cornwall

Borderway Agri-Expo and Dairy-Expo

We exhibit at quite a few local shows that are popular with farmers; Ashover, Nantwich and Ashby spring to mind, they all have good agricultural trade sections plus good livestock classes.

You're so posh up in TFF towers; Viticulture Live makes it, you renamed the Royal Highland and omitted plenty including possibly the best of them all the Royal Cornwall Show

How do you define "major" ?

Do you want to limit yourself to the UK in the list?

From this I can just tell that you are office based without any practical experience whatsoever. l know we are still restricted somewhat with Covid but you really need to get out more.
Royal Cornwall Show (one of those irrelevant County Shows to you) attracts around 125,000 people over 3 days from a county with a population of about 550,000. It is one of the most agriculturally focussed shows in the country. It’s so good even they Debn boys come down to support it 👍
One thing that I can assure it is that it will have a longevity and use that far exceeds Cereals (in its current format)

Maybe you should do a bit more research before settling upon your list.
