This year’s Agriculture Show will be hosted in the Western Division.

“We felt that the economic activity that would be generated from the one week show, will be able to assist our farmers in selling some of our produce which will be coming online at about that time and also provide the citizens of the Western division with an Agriculture Show that they can look forward to."

The show will be hosted in Lautoka from the 16th to the 21st of July.
