We had to wade through this. The place is near Suranee University, south of Nakhon:

https://maps.google.co.th/maps/ms?msid=209164140966709963776.0004c6691f7ffde6157af&msa=0&ll=14.874451,102.023849&spn=0.351727,0.441513

Just off the Mitrahap Road.

Day 1:according to my in house translation service: 8th of January, 'general public'

Day 2: 9 th Jan, 'Orchids'

on the 10th no info.

11th: Farmers' day plus 'Fancy Fish'. plus Sheep

11 - 12 dogs.

E &O.E.

On the 17 th-22ed January is Thailands annual dairy show, at Mortlec, Saraburi, the ground is next to the Friendship highway, Route 2 about 40km north of Saraburi ,Mortlec ,comeing from the north at Mortlec under the foot bridge bit under 1 km ,LHS .from the south before Mortlec near a Toyota dealership RHS.

It will be opened by HRH Princes Mahachakri Sirindhorn.

What is there? ,you can see some of the top cows in Thailand being milked over 4 days in a milking contest the best should give about 40kg a day not bad for Thailand, and a contest judging heifers ,and cows

You can buy all kinds of milking equipment and drugs, it still amazes me how anyone can buy any drug over the counter , where for us 90% would be POM , prescription only medicine . And the big feed companies will be there

You can buy semen dairy and beef, Yenwa should have Jersey, Brown Swiss + black and whites,. All so some beef semen Charolais, Angus, Beef master, American Brahman, they are about 500 Bart /straw.

Last year Anglo Thai had some tractors there, a Ford 6600 4WD ,and a Massey Ferguson, the MF looked a strong soiled tractor Kubota should be there .

Pattiepong are normally there, they are the makers of chipper/shredders, they also give a demotion, and walk behind rotervators.

Being a Thai dairy show there is collection of Thai cowboys , not the one that ploughed my land last year, he was a cowboy, but Thais dressed as cowboys ?, 1970s country and western music and overpriced leather goods + food, and more food. Do not for get the Thai silly games and dodgy cds

If you want a ½ day out it is all right, do not expect the same as a western dairy show ,I have been going for a good few years now ,not a lot has changed.

Hello All, the Korat Show is open and less of a flee market/carney game park this year.

We did the main exhibit hall first, out the back door and down the stairs, lambs on the

L/H side, first row a L, and down 40M they had strawberry plants for sale.

Some small and big tractors, chippers, rice mills and the usual things.

On the other side of the Rd. where the they have the mushroom display, small this year

and the big net house display, bigger than last year, the veg display was great.

They have Naga plants for sale and other chili and tom seeds from the display for sale,

10 seeds@ Bt.10. Naga plants were 3 for Bt. 100.

Have an area with herbs, didn't go out behind where the grow corn.

The woolies will be there tomorrow, some pic from today. The tom is a Beefmaster Hyb.

Friday 31 January – Saturday
8th February 2014
• National Agricultural Fair (Kaset fair) (See announcement later)
Yes! The big kasetsart fair is coming soon!

I heard that the kasetsart university is occupied by protestors, they even cut off the electricity. I wonder if the agriculture fair still will take place, the website of the university does not give any good information (as usual).

Went today and a big disappointment.

First walked past stalls selling furniture, thinking what does that have to do with agriculture. God knows how many stalls selling exactly the same sickly looking plants.

Toys, really??

Saw some places that looked to be set up for seminars, but nothing going on and loads of stalls selling food.

I was amazed to see stands of seed packets in full sun.

Special 50 year celebration and it is crappy.

Would not recommend this to anyone

That is very common in Thailand, sick tree's or unlabelled tree's. Last year i bought Chang daeng mango and it died the next day, 500 baht gone.

There is a lot to be learned for the Thai farmers. And this was on a university fair? Why the students don't tell the farmers how to grow or fight diseases? Well mai pen rai, i know the answer allready.

22-30 march is the kasetsart agriculture fair if i read this right. Too bad they still don't have any good agenda (in english) at this university.

Road past yesterday and they were still setting up some booths, but plants,

Hello All, Horti-Asia 2014, BKK May 8-10.

In the first pic, you can see the Jiffy booth, I hope they do have

Hello All, a new show coming up in a few months. Not all links at the site

don't work yet, but you can get an idea.

rice555

In BKK

www.thailandagriexpo.com.

That website comes up but links not working properly.

Hello All, the links will work when it gets closer to showtime.

That's why I said the links don't work, they don't yet!

Try again in 30 days, the show starts in 67 days, TIT.

rice555

Yes, I read what you said but I tried it 5 weeks after you posted! Obviously not the same website builder BITEC uses!

Hello All, if you have looked at the adds for the show in some Thai Ag Magazines,

you would see the URL I posted, if you are a little out of touch, there's been a lot

of shit going on in BKK over the past 7 months, it can be hard to make plans for a

trade show that may or may not go on as scheduled.

Bitec phone number is on the web page, call them and ask what's going on!!!!!

Stop whining, find show links for yourself.

I really enjoy Thailand's fruits so I've collected a list of all the fruit festivals that happen all over Thailand into a PDF and you can download it for free at my website.

Here's the link: http://www.yearofthedurian.com/p/fruits-of-thailand-guidebook.html

Hope somebody finds it useful!

You can't download without giving your email address.

Hello rice555, just out of curiosity, are you aware of any agricultural fairs coming to Korat again in the foreseeable future?

Also, does any other member here have any information about upcoming agricultural fairs in Isan in early-mid 2015? Dates and locations would be much appreciated.

Thanking you in advance!

Hello All, djayz Jan-Feb??, if you go to the www for past Korat shows, they have

a info page(Thai) that gives what's happing at the school or call them, they should

be able to give you the show dates. Please post them if you find out.

I'm in Korat, I just wait till they put up the show signs downtown.
