This important component of the exhibition was particularly emphasised by Mr. Jamshid Khodjaev, the Minister of Agriculture of Uzbekistan.

 In his welcome greeting to the participants and guests of the event, he stressed as follows: “AgroWorld Uzbekistan has become a platform for close cooperation between the suppliers of the modern technologies and solutions and agricultural producers of all forms of ownership, and for 14 years the exhibition has been demonstrating achievements of the industry, capabilities of domestic producers and interest in the sector development expressed by foreign companies”.

At the same time, 12 companies will directly exhibit their innovations in various branches of agriculture. Also, within the framework of the exhibition, the Netherlands-Uzbekistan Agribusiness Forum will be held both in Tashkent and in Namangan cities providing the most efficient opportunity to communicate in B2B format with the sector professionals.

The need for special attention to agriculture and animal husbandry had been emphasised in several governmental documents on development of the greenhouses and cattle-breeding complexes, which was taken into account by the organizers in preparation for this year’s exhibition. As a result, the exposition grew up by 35% thanks to expansion of the exposition sections: Equipment and Turn-key Construction of Greenhouses and Livestock Management. Also, the attention of professionals will be attracted by traditionally the most relevant areas of the agricultural sector and a wide range of products presented in the sections: Poultry Farm Equipment, Mineral Fertilizers, Feeds, Additives and Veterinary Medicine, Agricultural Machinery and etc.

The expansion in the number of participants has made it possible to clearly segment the sections of the exposition to improve convenience for the professionals to visit the stands of the exhibitors.
