ITE 2026

ITE 2026 is positioned to concentrate innovative products and high technologies for smart agriculture and water-saving irrigation, enabling buyers to compare solutions across the full deployment stack. In practical terms, this typically includes irrigation systems and components, water and fertilizer integration, filtration and pumping, valves and control, irrigation scheduling and automation, as well as digital platforms that connect sensors and on-farm operations to decision support and farm management workflows. Because the show is designed as a trade event with international participation, it also supports vendor qualification discussions around deployment cases, service capacity, spare parts strategy and training, all of which are critical to ensuring that a solution remains stable during peak seasons and under variable water quality conditions.

The venue is the Beijing National Convention Center (CNCC), a large-scale convention and exhibition facility that supports both a conference program and a structured exhibition floor within the same trip, which is operationally important for decision-making teams that need to align technical, commercial and policy perspectives. The official schedule indicates that the event runs from March 30 to April 1, 2026 in Beijing, and the conference-and-expo format encourages visitors to combine knowledge capture from forums and key sessions with direct supplier engagement on the exhibition floor. For international suppliers and buyers, CNCC also supports delegation-style attendance and scheduled meetings, which improves the efficiency of multi-supplier comparison and reduces the time required to move from discovery to a qualified shortlist.

ITE 2026 is jointly sponsored by sector institutions including the China Agricultural Water Saving and Rural Water Supply Technology Association, the China Agricultural Reclamation Water Saving Agricultural Industry Technology Alliance, the Beijing Internet of Things Intelligent Technology Application Association, and Zhenwei International Exhibition Group, with additional organizational structure details published by the event’s secretariat. This organizer mix is important because it strengthens both industry relevance and buyer acquisition: associations help attract professional audiences and institutional stakeholders, while a large exhibition organizer supports structured operations, exhibitor services and international promotion. The event is also announced as being held concurrently with a protected agriculture expo, which further expands the visitor pool and strengthens cross-category sourcing opportunities for buyers who work across irrigation, facility agriculture and modern farming infrastructure.
