A three-day agricultural exhibition assembling traders from the poultry, aqua & apiculture and the African Livestock Congress is set to kick off at Millenium Hall on Airport Road. Organised by Prana Events, the exhibition aims to promote commercial production, increase productivity and enhance the use of technology across all the agricultural subsectors by bringing international and local traders together. According to a recent FAO report, population growth, urbanisation and gains in real per capita income have resulted in an increased demand for livestock products. Livestock contributes to 19pc of the country's GDP, and also plays a significant role in foreign exchange earnings, accounting for 19pc. Additionally, the sector provides employment to over 30pc of the agricultural labour force.
