Yesterday evening, we brought you a behind-the-scenes preview video – showing last-minute preparations for the 2019 Farm Tractor & Machinery Trade Association (FTMTA) Farm Machinery Show.

The show has now opened its doors to the public.

Perhaps the most unusual sight at the event is Cross Agricultural Engineering’s pineapple plant harvester – a tracked, self-propelled Irish-built machine (pictured above). Stay tuned to AgriLand for more on this eye-catching oddity, which is destined for Costa Rica.

In the meanwhile, in this article, we bring you a selection of pictures from the sprawling exhibition – providing a flavour of what’s now on display.

Click on a thumbnail in the gallery (below) to open up a full-size image; once opened you can scroll sideways to see the next picture.

The venue for the event, as before, is Punchestown Event Centre – near Naas, Co. Kildare.

On Thursday and Friday, the show is open from 10:00am to 6:00pm. On Saturday, it’s open from 10:00am to 5:00pm.
