Growtech Middle East 2026

Growtech Middle East, formerly Agra Middle East, is the region's agriculture trade exhibition, now under the international Growtech brand after more than 15 years at Dubai World Trade Centre. It links agri-tech suppliers with commercial farms, government food security bodies, investors and distributors, with a free three-day conference programme on food resilience alongside the show floor.

Three exhibition sectors

The show is organised around three sectors central to food production in the region.

• Agriculture: precision irrigation, greenhouses, seeds, crop protection, vertical farming
• Aquaculture: RAS systems, AI monitoring, biosecurity, sustainable feed
• Livestock, Poultry & Animal Health: feed, genetics, farm management, veterinary solutions

Conference programme

Each day has a seminar stage and workshop track. Day 1 sets the vision from food security to food sovereignty, Day 2 turns to implementation and real-world challenges, and Day 3 hosts Goumbook's MENA Regenerative Agriculture programme.
