“Golden Autumn”, the Russian agricultural exhibition held annually by the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation, will celebrate its 20th anniversary this year. The country’s main agricultural forum will traditionally take place at VDNKh. At least 300 thousand visitors are expected to see the “Golden Autumn” indoor and outdoor expositions on October 10 -13, 2018.
Over the past twenty years, “Golden Autumn” has rightfully become the key event of the Russian agricultural complex. It encompasses a large-scale exhibition of the various accomplishments and achievements of domestic agricultural manufacturers and a relevant business programme designed to enable its participants to discuss the industry’s development prospects. In addition, it is also a vibrant fete for its attendants from among Muscovites and visitors of the country’s capital whose tone has been traditionally set by the Festival of National Cultures.
This year, all exhibition segments will primarily focus on demonstrating the export capacity of Russian agricultural businesses. By the way, last year’s “Golden Autumn” exhibition was attended by international delegations and foreign buyers representing more than 20 countries. More than 100 foreign buyers held 185 meetings with Russian agricultural manufacturers resulting in execution of more than 3 billion roubles worth of product supply contracts.
Other figures also attest to the importance and authority that the “Golden Autumn” exhibition has earned over the course of its 20 years. For example, in 2017, the exhibition’s indoor (pavilions No.69 and No.75) and outdoor sections took up more than 30,000 square metres of the VDNKh territory. The exhibition participants represented 68 Russian regions and 15 foreign countries and included almost 800 representatives of Russian and foreign mass media outlets. Over the course of four days, the indoor exhibition sections were viewed by about 110 thousand people, whereas the outdoor displays, including the Festival of National Cultures, were enjoyed by approximately 200 thousand people.
The organizers are now busy designing this year’s exhibition programme. The “Golden Autumn” anniversary year promises to be even fuller of events than ever before as the organizers are working hard to expand the scope of exhibition participants and provide them with new opportunities to enable them to demonstrate their business potential and engage with prospective partners more effectively.
