Agriculture is the foundation of the nation and the cornerstone of national development. For the first time, the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed building a strong agricultural country. Similarly, the No. 1 Central Document of 2023 emphasized “concentrating necessary resources, strengths, and means to launch a new round of action aimed at boosting grain production capacity by 100 billion jin.” Ensuring the secure supply of food and vital agricultural products remains the top priority in building a strong agricultural country. To guarantee food security and the effective supply of key agricultural products, we cannot do without robust support from agricultural inputs such as pesticides, fertilizers, and seeds. So, how can fertilizers, pesticides, seeds, and other agricultural inputs play an even more critical role in building a strong agricultural country? How can agricultural input enterprises seize opportunities and gain a competitive edge in the new environment? And what are the future development trends in the agricultural input industry? From February 28 to 29, 2024, we invite you to join us at the Zhengzhou International Convention & Exhibition Center for the 21st Central Plains Agricultural Input Fair. At that time, we will bring together industry experts and leading figures from multiple perspectives—including policy application, industry trends, product innovation, technological advancement, service collaboration, and new marketing strategies—to share their insights in depth. The Central Plains Agricultural Input Fair has been successfully held for 20 sessions and has now become one of the most influential agricultural events in China. This year’s fair is themed “Green, Innovative, Cooperative, and Win-Win,” and will showcase cutting-edge pesticides, plant protection equipment, specialty fertilizers, seeds, water-fertilizer integration systems, irrigation equipment, facility agriculture, and agricultural machinery. The exhibition area is expected to reach 30,000 square meters, with over 500 brands participating and attracting more than 60,000 professional visitors. Over 300 media outlets will provide simultaneous coverage and reporting.
