Agricultural machinery in Iran, the market can bounce back
Lifting sanctions could be worth eight billion euro for Italian manufacturers. The need to renew the machinery inventory and increase the productivity of agriculture offers good prospects for market penetration also in the agricultural mechanization sector.
A covered exhibition area of 18,000 m², six pavilions with two of them hosting agricultual machinery and equipment, three hundred exhibitors including thirty from abroad and more than ten thousand visitors. These are the figures for the tenth edition of the Iran Agri Show 2015 held February 17th to 20th in the city of Mashhad, the capital of the Razavi Khorasan Province, an agricultural region in the northwest. A major crop is saffron for which Iran is the world’s leading producer with 56 tons exported in 2011. The province is also home to agricultural machinery manufacturing with plants in Mashhad which turnout 55% of Iranian machinery and equipment.
