For many primary producers, the impact of droughts, floods, escalating production costs and staff shortages has led to challenging times.

But all who live on the land know these ups and downs will come and go and as most are currently enjoying a better run of seasonal conditions and commodity prices, many are looking forward to getting back to events like the Aon AgQuip Field Days in Gunnedah in August.

One of the challenges attending Australia’s largest field days is how do you get around the 34-hectare site and see all the 3,000 plus companies exhibiting?

With safety requirements restricting the number of vehicles allowed to operate in pedestrian corridors on the site, the organisers are always searching for ways to make the experience at AgQuip field day a more pleasant one.

AgQuip is providing several 12-seater vehicles to operate as the AgQuip Shuttle Bus, sponsored by Lowes Petroleum - out in the car parks and on the static display grid.
