Barclays Bank has been announced as silver sponsor for Arable NI 2026.

The event will be held on a working farm and will include field demonstrations, knowledge sharing and hands on learning.

It is intended to support and showcase Northern Ireland's arable sector.

Farmers, agronomists, researchers, agritech innovators, contractors, input suppliers and industry partners are expected to attend.

Patricia Erwin of the Ulster Farmers' Union said the organisation welcomes Barclays Bank as sponsor.

She said their commitment to the local agri sector makes them fitting sponsors alongside headline sponsor Fane Valley.

Richard Primrose of Barclays said the bank is delighted to sponsor the event.

He said agriculture is a cornerstone of the Northern Ireland economy that provides jobs and supports rural communities.

The bank has a long history supporting agriculture and is committed to enhancing the sector through partnerships.
