China (Shandong) International Agricultural Machinery Exhibition

The 21st China (Shandong) International Agricultural Machinery Exhibition 2027, also known as CHAME, will take place from March 12 to 13, 2027, at the Lutai Convention and Exhibition Center in Weifang, Shandong Province, China. This UFI Approved Event focuses on China's national agricultural machinery development strategy for the 15th Five-Year Plan period, emphasizing high-end intelligent equipment, high-horsepower smart machinery, and new-energy agricultural machinery to support agricultural mechanization and food security. It is co-located with the China (Weifang) Agricultural Machinery Parts Trade Fair 2027, offering 'one-stop parts sourcing, full-chain production and sales connectivity'.

The exhibition integrates full-category resources, covering complete agricultural machines, intelligent equipment, and core components. The exhibit scope includes power and field crop machinery, cash crop machinery (for fruits, vegetables, tea, cotton, medicinal herbs, peanuts, potatoes, onions, ginger, garlic), and small machinery for hilly and mountainous areas. Products showcased range from tractors and combine harvesters to precision seeders and reel irrigation machines. Weifang is positioned as a core national agricultural machinery production base with an industrial cluster valued at over 100 billion yuan (2027 announcement), while Shandong province hosts over 2,000 manufacturers, offering more than 3,500 varieties sold to over 120 countries and regions (figures as published on the official overview page, 2026).

Targeting agricultural machinery manufacturers, dealers, planting cooperatives, and procurement buyers from across China, the event facilitates product display, technical exchange, trade negotiation, and channel development. Concurrent programs include a Spring Machinery Purchase Festival, Belt and Road International Buyers - Agricultural Machinery Procurement Matchmaking Meeting, Overseas Buyers - Shandong Agricultural Machinery Brand Experience Tour, and China Agricultural Machinery Belt and Road Cooperation Dialogue. A summit program also brings together specialists, officials, and industry representatives to discuss macroeconomic conditions, policy, market trends, and technology transfer.
