CII-Southern Region Organizes Agri Tech South 2022 from 20-22 April 2022

2022-04-18

Agriculture plays an important role in people's livelihoods, particularly in rural areas reliant on agriculture and related opportunities. With a coastline that stretches all the way across South India, the scope and potential for fisheries are enormous.

Confederation of Indian Industry-Southern Region will hold its third edition of Agri Tech South 2022 in Hyderabad from April 20-22, 2022 (New Dates) at Prof. Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University. It is becoming increasingly important to push for necessary and timely interventions at Industry, Institution, FPOs and individual farmer levels for the transformation of Agriculture sector.

It is important to note that Krishi Jagran is the media partner of Agri Tech South 2022. Krishi Jagran Team is ready to participate and interact with prominent personalities of agriculture & industry during this 3-days visit.

The rich and diverse geography of the Southern Region has contributed to the cultivation of a diverse range of crops. Agriculture also plays an important role in people's livelihoods, particularly in rural areas reliant on agriculture and related opportunities. With a coastline that stretches all the way across South India, the scope and potential for fisheries are enormous.

Despite significant progress, agriculture in India still has a long way to go in terms of global benchmarks. To achieve global standards, farms must be modernized, the latest technologies adopted, and substantial investment in irrigation, seeds, fertilizers, and new technology, as well as a shift into high-value commodities such as horticulture, poultry, and dairying.

It is becoming increasingly important to push for necessary and timely interventions at Industry, Institution, FPOs and individual farmer levels for the transformation of Agriculture sector.

The goal is to establish a platform for showcasing and introducing the best and most recent Agri inputs, products, services, and technologies that will power agriculture in the future. It would also serve as a forum for some of the world's best agricultural minds, as well as key representatives from government, industry, academia, and the farming community, to discuss, deliberate, identify priorities, and propose an agenda for the country's agriculture sector's growth.
