Jubilee AGRA Fair Kicking Off in Gornja Radgona
The jubilee show, running under the slogan "Traditionally Fresh", will be marked by tradition, which has become its mission over the past five decades, and the freshness with which it explores new content and projects, the organisers said.
The fair, held on 68,300 m2 of exhibition space, will feature over 60 presentations and panels, as well as the presentation of reviews of 1,142 products of 336 producers from nine countries. Organisers have already given out medals of quality to over 900 of those products.
Apart from achievements in agriculture, the fair will mark the 50th anniversary of the common European agricultural policy and the 140th anniversary of cooperatives.
Organisers also plan to put emphasis on projects promoting Slovenian agriculture, like "I'm Buying Slovenian", as well as organic and regional products and foods.
