Interpom finally brings the European potato chain together again.
Interpom 2021 is fast approaching – we are now on the home stretch! After a whole year of postponement, Interpom will finally be held on Sunday 28, Monday 29, and Tuesday 30 November 2021 in Kortrijk Xpo (B). Interpom is the leading international meeting platform for the potato chain in Europe and will be the first physical meeting platform of its kind since the pandemic broke out.
This event will be an exceptional one, with the appropriate theme being 'Let's reconnect the potato chain'! So come and meet colleagues and suppliers to discuss this very eventful period for the sector, to discover a selection of innovative solutions that will help you tackle the challenges of tomorrow, and above all to prepare for the 2022-2023 season.
In short, Interpom is always the perfect opportunity to take stock and keep abreast of the latest market developments.
Major challenges within the potato chain
The potato industry has been going through a particularly difficult time. Not only because of the whole coronavirus situation, which has had a considerable impact on the market but also as a result of other changes in circumstances that have affected the potato chain: the climate issue, the consequences of the ban on the use of CIPC for potato storage, the first steps towards the Green Deal, etc.
The 325 exhibitors from no less than 15 countries – involved in the cultivation, processing, or marketing of potatoes – have already developed many innovative solutions to meet these new challenges.
At Interpom, they will be presenting their most advanced machinery, products, services, and digital technologies in an exhibition area of 35,000 m² (that is, once again, the entire complex of Kortrijk Xpo!). These are aimed at potato growers, agriculture contractors, the processing industry, packers, buyers, and traders of fresh and processed potatoes.
Innovation tour: a selection of 26 innovations from the whole chain
An independent group of experts has made a selection of must-see innovations at Interpom.
This group consists of Pierre Lebrun (coordinator at Fiwap & ad interim coordinator Belpotato for Flanders and Wallonia), Kurt Demeulemeester (Department head Arable Crops @ Inagro), Tim Decoster (deputy editor in chief at Landbouwleven and mainly active in the subsectors of mechanization and arable farming), Patrick Dieleman (deputy editor in chief at Boer & Tuinder), Jaap Delleman (Director / Editor in chief Aardappelwereld / PotatoWorld) and Antoon Wallays (member of Belgapom & Senior Advisor at Agristo NV).
The 26 selected innovations are:
The assessment by the group of experts also shows that digitalization is clearly on the rise in the potato sector. Still, the selection also includes straightforward yet very cleverly designed new products that will help users to remain both efficient and competitive in the sector.
