A number of seminars, conferences, and panel discussions were held during the exhibition. So, on the first day of the exhibition, the business program "AGROEXPO-2019" was opened by a panel discussion of the Federation of Employers of Ukraine. It was devoted to the appeal of agrarians and machine builders to the President of Ukraine with a request to maintain the state program to support agricultural engineering, because in the draft budget-2020, there are no funds for the program of partial compensation for the cost of domestic agricultural machinery.
Traditionally, at AGROEXPO-2019, one could see the latest agricultural machinery of world and domestic brands directly in operation in the field at a special training ground for demonstrations.
