The European Irrigation Association (EIA) will celebrate its 30th anniversary at the next EIMA International, one of the world’s leading trade shows dedicated to agricultural machinery, technologies, and equipment. Organized by FederUnacoma, EIMA International—which will take place November 10–14, 2026, in Bologna, Italy—is a biennial event that serves as a global benchmark for the agricultural and agro-industrial sectors. EIMA is also the only European trade show that brings together all European and global players in the irrigation industry.
The EIA will host a cocktail reception on November 10, 2026
The EIA looks forward to seeing you on November 10 starting at 5:00 p.m. in the Bolero Hall (Bologna Fiere Business Center) to celebrate its 30th anniversary and its exceptional growth over the past five years—the association now has nearly 90 members! This networking event will bring together key players from the European and global irrigation industry and will also serve as an opportunity to showcase the association’s activities and the various events we organize throughout the year. Furthermore, this year, the EIA has stepped up its advocacy efforts and has thus become the voice of the irrigation industry before European authorities.
