Dowerin Field Day
25th & 26th August 2010
8am to 5pm
As broadacre farming evolves and other influences make themselves felt, the Dowerin GWN Machinery Field Days continue a natural evolution. Technology is an essential part of broadacre farming, with the use of computers and satellite beamed information and these days, computer displays share space with farm machinery. Lifestyle farms are moving closer to centres such as Dowerin, it's possible to run many consultant type businesses from rural areas and already the ’bush change’ lifestyle has seen smaller tractors dominant farm machinery sales across Australia .
The Dowerin GWN Machinery Field Days will continue to encourage exhibitors to meet the trends, expectations and needs of the many diverse groups who rely on the annual event for information on the very latest developments in machinery, computers, finance, cropping and rural lifestyles.
There is a strong social element to the field days, a chance for farmers and their families to catch up with neighbours from far and wide, while the event also serves as a way for exhibitors to give something back to their customers and the wider community. From a humble suggestion for raising funds to water a tennis court, the Dowerin GWN Machinery Field Days had become the biggest rural event in Western Australia, a "must attend" showcase for people from all walks of life.
