The 7th Nepal Agritech and Nepal Food and Beverage International Expo is set to take place from 14 to 16 February at Bhrikutimandap, Kathmandu.

The event will feature exhibition stalls from domestic agricultural entrepreneurs and businesses, as well as international companies, informed the organisers of the event.

Organised jointly by Media Space Solutions Pvt. Ltd., Futurex Trade Fairs and Events Pvt. Ltd., and Exhibition and Trade Services India Pvt. Ltd., the expo aims to contribute to the development of Nepal’s agricultural sector.

The Prime Minister’s Agriculture Modernisation Project is promoting the event while the National Association of Rural Municipalities in Nepal, Nepal Poultry Federation, National Dairy Development Board, Nepal Agriculture Cooperative Central Federation Ltd., and the National Farmers’ Group Federation Nepal are supporting it.

"The exhibition will showcase a wide range of agricultural tools and machinery, from small-scale implements to dairy machinery and livestock equipment," the organisers informed in a statement on Wednesday.

They are hopeful that this event will contribute to making farming more efficient and cost-effective. Entry to the expo is free for all visitors.

The exhibition is expected to help identify the latest technologies and services suitable for Nepal’s agriculture sector, supporting increased production and promoting self-sufficiency in agricultural output.

"The event will cover various agricultural sectors, including poultry farming, fish farming, goat and cattle rearing, dairy production, agricultural machinery and tools, veterinary services, and food technology," read the statement.

Different sections of the exhibition will be categorised as 'trade fair within a trade fair' for easy access to the concerned industry and products, allowing visitors to explore their specific areas of interest.
