the free bus that is laid on. We had none of that waiting around you get when you try to get on to showgrounds elsewhere.’
‘What is also very good
for us is that we can talk directly with all of our local farm machinery dealers rather than having to drive miles between them, and they all have representatives from the manufacturers whose products they sell,’ said another of last year’s attendees. ‘We used to have to go miles to get to an event like this, but YAMS means we now just come here – and the food is good too!’
Although there are no figures available regarding the sales made on the day, or sales made following on from contacts at YAMS, Richard monitors the
success of those who attend with tradestands and knows just how important the event has become to them.
‘Winter, coming into springtime, is when farmers generally have the time to consider their possible purchases for the coming seasons and
I am aware of many sales
of tractors, telehandlers, trailers, harvest cultivation and livestock equipment having taken place at each YAMS in all of the previous six shows. I see no reason why this year’s should be any different. There are good reasons why the tradestand holders come each year, and that is very much to do business.’
YAMS recorded its highest attendance last year with over 10,000 visitors.
The event is free entry and gets under way from 8.30am until 4.30pm.
It’s a sell out! This
year’s 7th annual YAMS (Yorkshire Agricultural Machinery Show) is
the biggest yet with 235 tradestands and 32 new first-time exhibitors in the showfields and the new indoor centre.
Organiser Richard
Tasker of York Auction Centre and the leading player behind the long- running, successful York Machinery Sales is once again delighted, but also astounded at the continued growth of the show, that started life in 2014.
‘When we started planning the first show, we had no idea that YAMS would become so much a part of
Yorkshire and the North
of England’s farming calendar, but it is now a date firmly fixed on the minds of everyone looking to check out the latest equipment and put their farm machinery up to date.’
‘Every year we have increased our tradestand numbers and I’m happy to say that we’ve just about filled every spare inch this year. It looks like I might have to get my thinking cap on for next year to create a little more space, especially when you consider the number of new exhibitors that have taken stands. We’ve also had several companies take bigger stands too, notably
one of our local dealers, Robert D Webster Ltd who have three depots in the East Riding.’
YAMS provides the ultimate farm machinery one-stop shop for all farmers and agricultural contractors looking to invest in new equipment. It has become the only place to be, when viewing farm machinery, on this one day in February each year.
‘It is the best opportunity we have, all year, of seeing literally everything that
is available on the market today,’ said one of last year’s farmers attending YAMS.
‘It’s great that we have this kind of event in Yorkshire because it means we don’t have to come so far, and when you get here the parking arrangements
are fantastic. We parked up at the car park at Grimston Bar and caught
