âMore and more countries in Southeast Asia are opening their borders to quarantine-free travel. Seeing these developments, we are looking forward to a high international turnout of exhibitors with so much to offer Southeast Asian farmers,â said Ms. Katharina Staske, Managing Director of DLGâs office in Thailand.
âSmart farming as sustainability solutions, vertical farming and even cannabis production are just some of the many highlights that farmers can discover in Bangkok in 2022. The Industry Ministry is planning to make Thailand a hub of cannabis businesses to produce new products in the medical sector and support tourism. So I think it is the perfect time to bring this topic to our exhibitions,â said Panadda Kongma, Director Agribusiness & Operations of VNU Asia Pacific.
Â
New: Smart farming and seven international pavilions
An important part of Thailandâs sustainable production, precision and smart farming technologies and applications including many from startups will be explored at the new Thailand Smart Farming Pavilion jointly organized with the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives.
Smart farming in Thailand and solutions like drone and satellite technology, automation and robotics and working weed robots have already attracted attention at the Regional Summit held in Thailand late last year. The topic of smart farming will be explored further at the Smart Farming Pavilion which will present solutions aimed at all farm sizes.
Seven country pavilions for China, Finland, Germany, India, Japan, the Netherlands and South Korea, each located within the trade fair, will showcase equipment and technical solutions from global companies to Asiaâ farmers in the regions.
New: Vertical farming and cannabis production
Located in the horticultural exhibition area âHORTI ASIAâ, the new pavilion âVertical Farmingâ co-organized by the Association for Vertical Farming (AVF) focuses on the production of plant-based food in urban spaces while the Cannabis Pavilion set up by Thailand Cannabis Industry Association (TCIA) aims to further knowledge in cannabis production, an area increasingly attractive to Thai farmers since its legalization in 2021.Â
Comprehensive Conference Program and Guided Exhibition Tours
The exhibition will be accompanied by about 30 professional sessions on all three exhibition days, exploring topics like âThailand Cane and Sugar Industries after Covid-19â; âTowards carbon reduced (or neutral) rice production and processingâ ; and âDevelopment of Smart Industrial Agriculture Technology in Thailandâ. A selection of discussion events will also be held online.

Interactive summit accompanied by exhibition and farm visit
Co-host: Thai Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives
Topics: Sustainable production of sugarcane, cassava, rice and maize; precision farming; plant protection, water management; cluster farming; vertical farming and new market opportunities
With a new hybrid format, AGRITECHNICA ASIA & HORTI ASIA Regional Summit yesterday successfully concluded its two-day event titled âSmart production for sustainable food systemsâ attracting more than 800 virtual attendees from 34 countries. With more than 240 in-person visitors joining the event held in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, Thailand, the Summit, co-hosted by the Thai Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives (MOAC), is the largest in-person agricultural event held in Thailand this year.
Covering trending crop production topics in South East Asia, like cluster farming and vertical farming as well as sustainable production of sugarcane and cassava using modern techniques, more than 90 onsite and online speakers from Thailand and worldwide included experts from the Thai Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives who delivered applicable know-how from this yearâs UN Food System Summit.Â
âAs the co-organizer, weâre very pleased with the success of this onsite event, which took place despite the pandemic. Additionally, a new challenge was to get Thai participants to the international digital event. The hybrid format of the Summit fits well with Thailandâs national digital agenda for sustainable food systems. The transformation actions need collaboration and partnership from all sectors and stakeholders. Through the Summit process, MOAC can reach out to more people, raise awareness for cross-sectoral and expand our network, national and internationally.â said Dr. Vanida Khumnirdpetch, Director of Foreign Agricultural Affairs as the Office of the Permanent Secretary, the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives of Thailand (MOAC), as the venue. âNext year I am looking forward to the return of the AGRITECHNICA ASIA & HORTI ASIA exhibition. Of course, an in-person event is preferred,â she added.
âThe Summit offers a good opportunity to meet up in an industry forum, where the people who work in agriculture share a mission: To update their knowledge. The technologies presented here is a prime example of a fruitful result. My main objective was to deliver to the audience the current status and outlook of smart farming in Thailand, including the future trends. The hybrid exhibition is the new normal and it does offer an advantage for attendees living far from the venue as they can reach the information online. This is part of todayâs zeitgeist as we live in the era of digitalization,â concluded Dr. Dares Kittiyopas, Consultant of the Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives and President of the Thai Society of Agricultural Engineering at the close of the event.
Mechanization, precision agriculture and sustainable production
In both practical and technical sessions, attendees received an overview about the mechanization trends and equipment for sustainable and efficient sugarcane, cassava, rice and maize production though contributions from the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) and other expert organizations as well as from leading manufactures such as CLAAS, CNH Industrial, Gessner and John Deere. Among the highlights were novel concepts like soil sensing, precision fertilizer management, post-harvest techniques and storage solutions. Visitors received an insight into the modern techniques on water management including salinity control.
In the session titled âAgriculture 4.0 – Â Precision Agricultureâ, presentations by speakers from the Thai Society of Agricultural Engineering, Planet and Varuna, AI Robotics, among others, explored both the role of precision farming in Thailand and the available solutions: drone and satellite technology, automation and robotics, with practical examples like Oz, the weeding robot, presented by Naio Technologies.
Trending topics in Thailand: Clusterfarms and vertical farming
Supported by the German Federal Ministry for Food and Agriculture, the â1st Clusterfarm Future Conferenceâ reported on the successful cluster farm program, which has registered 8,000 farms since its implementation in 2016. The program led by the Thai Department of Agricultural Extension aims to increase farm efficiency. With practitioners, national and international expert speakers from both industry and government, the scope of the conference was a first in Thailand.
The production of plant-based food in urban spaces presents opportunities and challenges which were explored in presentations from the Association for Vertical Farming among others.
