As an equal partner of the Heritage Ag Show the QFIMD encourages exhibitors and patrons alike to attend the 18th annual Ag Show.

With many areas of Queensland and New South Wales experiencing the worst drought in a century it is imperative that the farming community keep abreast of the changing farming trends. The Heritage Ag Show has proven to be the premier field day event which exhibits the latest farming trends and technology which help our agricultural producers maintain their status of being the most efficient in the world today.

The Toowoomba Showgrounds is an excellent venue for the Heritage Ag Show, both exhibitors and patrons agree the facilities are superior to any other event of its kind.

The Ag Show is the ideal event where manufacturers, exhibitors and patrons come together for the mutual benefit of the agricultural industry.

The QFIMD and partners are committed to improving the Heritage Ag Show not only to make it the best field day event in Australia, but also to improve its service to our customers, patrons, exhibitors and the farming industry.
