The Taiwan Agriculture Machinery Exhibition 2025, held in Yunlin County, concluded successfully on October 27, marking a historic milestone in both attendance and sales. Over the course of three days, the event drew more than 800,000 visitors—a record-breaking figure—and generated on-site sales exceeding NT$730 million. The impressive turnout and strong commercial results underscore the exhibition’s growing influence as the premier agricultural machinery event in Taiwan and a leading showcase in Asia’s agri-technology sector.
Yunlin County Magistrate Chang Li-shan praised the outcome, expressing optimism that the 2026 edition will surpass even this year’s success, aiming to attract one million visitors and achieve new sales records. She emphasized that the exhibition has become a cornerstone for Taiwan’s agricultural innovation and global collaboration.
A Premier Platform for Agricultural Technology and Innovation
This year’s exhibition featured over 400 domestic and international brands, representing the forefront of agricultural innovation and sustainability. Across more than 1,000 booths, visitors explored themed zones focused on low-carbon tractors, carbon-sequestration machinery, electric and labor-saving equipment, smart greenhouse monitoring systems, circular agriculture, and construction machinery.
The event also included a large outdoor demonstration area, where live presentations showcased how advanced machinery and smart technologies are transforming traditional farming. These demonstrations gave farmers hands-on insights into the latest developments in automation, energy efficiency, and digital agriculture—areas that are redefining productivity and sustainability in Taiwan’s agricultural landscape.
The exhibition was jointly organized by the Yunlin County Government, the Taiwan Agricultural Machinery and Supplies Association, the Taiwan Agricultural Structures Association, and the Taiwan Construction Machine Association Network. Their collaboration has firmly established this event as Taiwan’s most specialized and comprehensive platform dedicated to agricultural machinery, technology exchange, and business development.
Strengthening Taiwan’s Agricultural Leadership
Magistrate Chang highlighted Yunlin County’s central role in Taiwan’s agricultural advancement. As one of the nation’s most productive farming regions, Yunlin has hosted this exhibition for 19 consecutive years, consistently integrating innovation and international cooperation.
This year’s international pavilion welcomed exhibitors from six countries, fostering cross-border exchange in agricultural machinery, precision farming, and sustainable technology. The inclusion of global participants not only enhanced the exhibition’s diversity but also elevated its international visibility, reinforcing Taiwan’s reputation as a hub for agricultural innovation and smart farming solutions.
Chang reaffirmed the county government’s commitment to advancing its dual strategic goals of Smart Agriculture and Net-Zero Sustainability. She explained that Yunlin is leveraging resources from industry, government, academia, and research institutions to drive modernization in agriculture. Through the integration of electric agricultural machinery, digital management systems, and energy-efficient technologies, the county is transforming its farming ecosystem from production to distribution.
“By promoting eco-friendly, low-carbon agricultural practices, we’re ensuring that Taiwan’s farmers remain competitive in an increasingly digital and sustainability-focused world,” said Magistrate Chang. She added that the exhibition has evolved into a vital platform for knowledge sharing, enabling farmers to learn directly from technology developers, industry experts, and international partners.
Accelerating Smart and Sustainable Farming
Wei Sheng-de, Director of the Yunlin County Government’s Department of Agriculture, emphasized that the county has long championed the transition to smart and electric agriculture. This vision, he said, is now being realized through events like the Taiwan Agriculture Machinery Exhibition, which serves as both a showcase and a springboard for innovation.
This year’s exhibition spotlighted Taiwan’s progress in several key areas:
- Precision Agriculture – Technologies that allow for data-driven crop management, improving yields while reducing waste.
- Smart Irrigation Systems – Automated water management solutions that enhance efficiency and sustainability.
- Agricultural Drones – Advanced aerial tools for crop monitoring, spraying, and field mapping.
- Electric Machinery – Equipment that reduces emissions and operating costs while improving performance.
Wei noted that these advancements are helping farmers increase productivity and safety, two crucial factors for maintaining Taiwan’s competitive edge in global agriculture. “By embracing digital tools and sustainable technologies, we are not just improving efficiency—we are future-proofing our agricultural economy,” he said.
The Department of Agriculture continues to work closely with local cooperatives, agricultural technology firms, and educational institutions to promote training programs, pilot projects, and public-private partnerships that accelerate the adoption of smart farming solutions.
Industry Enthusiasm and Economic Impact
The Taiwan Agricultural Machinery and Supplies Association Chairman Lin Yu-kuo reported that this year’s event recorded unprecedented participation from both exhibitors and buyers. With on-site sales surpassing NT$730 million and post-event orders expected to exceed NT$1 billion, Lin said the results reflect the strong investment momentum in Taiwan’s agricultural machinery sector.
He noted that businesses are increasingly focusing on automation, data integration, and sustainability, aligning with global trends in agricultural innovation. “The success of this exhibition proves that Taiwan’s agricultural industry is not only keeping pace with international standards but is also shaping the future of smart, sustainable farming,” Lin said.
The event’s significant economic impact extends beyond immediate sales. Hotels, restaurants, and transportation sectors in Yunlin also benefited from the surge in visitors, highlighting how the exhibition stimulates regional development and boosts the local economy.
Yunlin as a Model for Taiwan’s Agricultural Future
Looking ahead, Magistrate Chang reaffirmed that the Yunlin International Agricultural Machinery Exhibition represents more than just a trade fair—it symbolizes a new era for smart agriculture in Taiwan. The county plans to further enhance the event’s international outreach, attract new technologies, and strengthen cooperation with global partners.
Chang said the government will continue to prioritize initiatives that promote digital transformation, carbon reduction, and sustainable resource management, ensuring that agriculture in Yunlin—and across Taiwan—remains resilient and globally competitive.
“The success of this exhibition demonstrates the strength of collaboration between government, industry, and academia,” she concluded. “Together, we are building a smarter, greener, and more prosperous future for Taiwan’s agriculture.”
With its record-breaking attendance, booming sales, and growing global recognition, the Taiwan Agriculture Machinery Exhibition 2025 not only celebrated the achievements of today’s agricultural technology but also laid the groundwork for tomorrow’s innovations. As Yunlin County continues to lead Taiwan’s agricultural transformation, the event stands as a powerful symbol of progress—one that promises to shape the nation’s path toward smart, sustainable, and inclusive agricultural growth.
