The highlights of the 2024 edition include a focus on table grapes, with an International Symposium dedicated to the entire supply chain; two new exhibitions: Agrisolar Systems & Technologies, showcasing modern agricultural solutions, and the Innovation Hub for Healthy Food, focusing on functional foods. Several themed exhibitions dedicated to innovations in various sectors of the industry have been confirmed: the Biosolutions International event, the Acqua Campus, the Spices & Herbs Global Expo, the Red Planet, and the Plant Nursery area showcasing innovations in the plant nursery industry.
