Agrotechnorama Tänikon

Tänikon Agrotechnorama

Welcome to the AgroTechnorama

The agricultural engineering development show in Tänikon near Aadorf shows you at close quarters the development from horse-drawn implements to the tractor, from the flail to the combine harvester and from the scythe to the mowing machine. For decades now agriculture has been undergoing radical change, which this exhibition will explain in greater detail.

We look forward to your visit!
