The Irish Farmers Journal are once again delighted to partner with the National Ploughing Association on the official Ploughing app. First launched in 2010, the app’s functionality and convenience for visitors to the biggest outdoor show in Europe continues to improve. This year we’re delighted to have Pinergy on board as app sponsors.

The new Ploughing 2017 app is the must-have app for anyone going to the show. The app has a range of tools which will be useful to both exhibitors and attendees of the Ploughing with:

  • Offline Stand Locator
  • Event planner
  • Find My Car feature (this is the most used feature!)
  • Traffic plan
  • New features this year include:

  • Interactive map with link to stand locations and events
  • Access to Neven Maguire’s cookery demonstration recipes
  • NPA Assistant Managing Director Anna Marie McHugh said “Enhancing visitor experience is always a priority for the NPA and this year we are delighted to be partnering with the Farmers Journal to provide a new and improved app, with standout features such as an event planner, an interactive map with links to stand locations and events and a find my car aid. Given all that there is to do and see at this year’ National Ploughing Championships taking place in Screggan, Tullamore from Sept 19th to 21st I highly recommend reviewing our site map and downloading the official #Ploughing17 app to help plan your visit.”

    Pinergy CEO, Enda Gunnell said ‘We are delighted to be involved in the Ploughing Championships for another year and in particular with the Ploughing 2017 app. The innovative technology and development of the app over the last number of years means it is now an integral part of the Ploughing Championship experience for all those attending. Pinergy have been involved in the Ploughing Championships for the last 4 years and are excited to support the use of technology, through the Ploughing 2017 app, as a logical step for us in supporting homes, farms and businesses across the country.’

    Commenting on the app, David Leydon, commercial director with the Irish Farmers Journal said, “We’re delighted at how many of our readers download the Ploughing app – the number is growing year on year since we first launched in 2010. It’s always good to collaborate with the NPA and it’s great to have Pinergy on board as our app sponsor”.
