India Debuts at NZ Fieldays, Boosting Agri-Tech Ties

India recently participated for the first time in Fieldays 2026, New Zealand's leading agribusiness exhibition, establishing the 'Incredible India' Pavilion. This four-day event in Hamilton provided Indian companies a dedicated space to showcase their offerings in agriculture, food processing, and technology.

The Pavilion attracted over 1,000 visitors on its first day, highlighting a significant interest in economic ties between India and New Zealand. Interactive exhibits demonstrated Indian innovations in precision agriculture and sustainable farming.

This landmark participation coincides with the recently signed India-New Zealand Free Trade Agreement, intended to enhance trade, investment, and technological collaboration. High-ranking officials from both countries attended the inauguration and subsequent discussions.

The Consulate General of India views this event as the commencement of a new era in agricultural and economic cooperation, presenting New Zealand businesses with opportunities in India's rapidly growing market. The Consulate thanked Fieldays organizers and visitors for the successful debut.
