The main key to the growth of the dairy section is the high relevance of the technological and technical agenda of Agroprodmash as well as the tracking of key trends in the development of the Russian dairy industry. These include technology development, maintaining efficient supply channels for production facilities, and a focus on exporting products to neighbouring and non-CIS countries. At the same time, the demand and market for technological equipment and industry solutions are changing according to the development trends of Russian agricultural enterprises and production facilities specialising in milk processing and production of dairy products.
APM Automation Solutions has increased the space and the number of participants as 60 companies from 5 countries present their solutions for robotics, production automation and software in Pavilion No.8 (Hall 3).
