This morning, the Principal Secretary for Agriculture, Dr. Kipronoh Ronoh, CBS, officially presided over the curtain raiser for the 12th Agritec Africa — an international exhibition and conference dedicated to showcasing cutting-edge agricultural technologies that are revolutionizing the sector across the continent.
The forum highlights Africa’s bold transition from traditional farming to smart, technology-driven agriculture. It brings to the forefront innovations such as precision farming, data-driven decision-making, advanced irrigation and water management systems, smart farming tools, and strengthened agro-processing and value chains.
It also underscores the importance of adopting energy-efficient technologies that reduce production costs in key value chains like tea, driving sustainability while enhancing farmer profitability across Africa.
The International Conference will be held from 17th–19th June 2026 at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC), Nairobi, under the theme: Improving Farmers’ Income Through Technology.
This is not just an exhibition — it is a powerful platform for innovation, collaboration, and transformation, paving the way for a more sustainable and prosperous future for African agriculture.
