The International Agricultural Fair is the largest and most important exhibition of agriculture in the Central and South Eastern Europe.

The Agricultural Fair held in May gathers all important agricultural actors in this part of Europe as well as representatives of other branches of the economy that rely on and are associated with agriculture.
