Dairy-Tech 2022 postponed to April following hike in Covid cases
6th January 2022
Due to growing concern over the new Omicron variant, Dairy-Tech 2022 has been postponed to 7th April 2022.
Dairy-Tech organiser The Royal Association of British Dairy Farmers (RABDF) has made the difficult decision to push the date of the event from 2nd February to 7th April following the hike in cases over the Christmas period.
RABDF managing director Matt Knight said: “Upholding the health and safety of visitors, members, exhibitors, speakers and our staff is paramount. However, due to the unprecedented number of cases of Coronavirus over the last few weeks, we feel the best and most responsible option is to postpone the event until later in the year when cases historically have dropped.
“By April, the hope is more people will have received their booster jab and levels of Coronavirus will be lower.
“The event on 7th April will also be before silaging starts, making it more accessible for farmers attending.”
Dairy-Tech is one of the biggest dairy shows to date, with more than 80 new product launches and almost 300 exhibitors. Usual favourites are featured, including the Dairy Hub, offering guidance and insight on key industry issues and the Innovation Hub, where new products, ideas, technology and concepts will be discussed. Hoof trimming demonstrations will also feature at the event.
