Tüyap is preparing to stage its 23rd International Konya Agriculture Fair in April 2027, gathering digital technologies, agricultural machinery and global trade in Konya, often called Türkiye’s agricultural capital. At EIMA International in Bologna, the exhibition will be presented to European industry professionals.
Konya, Türkiye: The 23rd International Konya Agriculture Fair, an event staged by Tüyap Konya Fairs Inc., is scheduled for 6-10 April 2027, with the Konya Chamber of Commerce Tüyap Konya International Fair Center as its venue. It will link makers of agricultural machinery and technology providers with overseas buyers.
The exhibition is backed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and TARMAKBİR, the Turkish Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Manufacturers Association, along with Selçuk University, the Konya Metropolitan Municipality, the Konya Chamber of Industry and the Konya Chamber of Commerce. This ties the fair to the region’s agriculture, manufacturing and academic institutions.
Production capacity in Konya
Holding the most agricultural land in Türkiye, Konya also ranks among the nation’s leading hubs for agricultural machinery production. Buyers, distributors and farming businesses looking for suppliers of equipment and technology are linked to this industrial base through the exhibition.
“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,” İlhan Ersözlü, General Manager of Tüyap Konya Fairs Inc., explained. “Our focus is on creating opportunities for manufacturers to establish business relationships and reach new markets.”
Exhibitors from machinery to renewable energy
Agricultural mechanization will form part of the exhibition’s scope, spanning tractors, planting equipment, harvesting machinery and balers through to crop protection systems and soil preparation.
Also on show will be renewable energy solutions, environmental services, agricultural software, livestock technologies and irrigation equipment, placing traditional machinery beside newer production technologies.
Back on the programme, the AgriFuture Stage will host seminars and panels featuring industry specialists alongside international participants. Topics will cover the sector’s future and the forces shaping agricultural production and technology.
Technologies and solutions created by agricultural entrepreneurs in Türkiye will be on display in a dedicated Start-up Area, a further meeting place for young companies and established industry professionals.
Bologna audience hears about April 2027
The fair’s 2026 edition drew 431 exhibitors, with visitors coming from approximately 100 countries, among them buyer delegations from 23 countries. Attendance by sector professionals representing all 81 Turkish provinces underlined its reach at home and abroad. In 2027 the event will fill 96,000 square metres spread over 6 halls, plus outdoor exhibition space and foyer areas.
Konya Agriculture intends to promote itself internationally by taking part in EIMA International, which takes place on 10-14 November 2026 in Bologna, Italy. There it aims to show European industry representatives the capabilities Türkiye offers in agricultural machinery manufacturing, drawing attention to the country’s strategic geographical position and competitive pricing.
