The 14th edition of the International Exhibition of Agricultural Investment and Technology (SIAT 2022) opened on Wednesday in the northern suburb of Tunisia’s capital Tunis.

Under the theme “Intelligent Investment for Sustainable Development,” the three-day event is organised by the Agricultural Investment Promotion Agency (APIA) and inaugurated by Prime Minister Najla Bouden Romdhane.

“SIAT 2022 offers farmers and investors an opportunity to exhibit their new technologies and learn about the opportunities available for the promotion of agricultural production,” APIA’s Director General, Inji Douggui, was quoted as saying by Tunis Afrique Presse.

More than 200 exhibitors are participating in this year’s edition, according to Douggui.

So far this year, investments in Tunisia’s agricultural sector have exceeded 400 million Tunisian dinars ($122 million), representing an increase of 30 per cent year on year, Douggui said.
