THE FUTURE OF AGRICULTURE TAKES SHAPE IN ANTALYA
Climate change, declining water resources, rising production costs and the continued reduction of agricultural land are increasing the need to produce more with fewer resources. As a result, solutions such as automation, artificial intelligence, smart irrigation, controlled environment agriculture, energy efficiency and digital agriculture are becoming increasingly important.
In its 25th year, Growtech Antalya will bring together producers, technology developers, investors, researchers and international agricultural professionals, providing an opportunity to discover innovations shaping the future of agriculture.
Growtech Antalya Fair Director Engin Er commented on the 25th edition:
“Growtech Antalya’s 25th edition marks an important milestone for our exhibition, while also reflecting the transformation taking place across the agricultural industry. Today, the key challenge is not simply to produce more, but to produce more efficiently while making better use of natural resources. Technology, innovation and knowledge sharing will play a decisive role in this transformation. At Growtech Antalya, we will continue to connect producers with technology, entrepreneurs with investors, companies with new markets, and agricultural professionals from around the world with one another.”
GROWTECH ANTALYA LAUNCHES THE MEDICAL CANNABIS ZONE
One of the key innovations of the 25th edition will be the launch of the Medical Cannabis Zone for the first time in 2026.
