AGTS Agriculture Expo in Gunma 2026: Business Exhibition to Accelerate Solutions for Northern Kanto's Agricultural Challenges, Held at G-Messe Gunma with Enhanced Coverage from Production to Sales

The AGTS Agriculture Expo in Gunma Executive Committee (headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo; operated by Inobent Co., Ltd.) will host the "AGTS Agriculture Expo in Gunma" for three days from Wednesday, December 9, to Friday, December 11, 2026, at G-Messe Gunma (Gunma Convention Center). Exhibitor applications are now open.

This exhibition targets Gunma Prefecture, as well as Tochigi, Ibaraki, Saitama, and southern Niigata Prefecture, serving as a business-matching platform connecting agricultural operators and producers with innovative technologies, products, and services from across Japan.

The 2026 "AGTS Agriculture Expo in Gunma" will adopt a comprehensive exhibition structure covering production and preparation, cultivation and management, harvesting and processing, and distribution and sales. The content has been enhanced to directly address practical challenges faced by the industry. The event features a wide range of exhibition categories, including crop farming, horticulture, livestock, organic and environmentally conscious agriculture, smart agriculture, logistics, e-commerce, market expansion, energy and infrastructure, and environmental solutions.

The AGTS brand's inaugural event in Aichi in 2025 attracted over 170 exhibitors and more than 10,000 visitors. The event also featured a variety of special programs, including diverse seminars, the Future Agriculture Garden, Academic Zone, aquaponics displays, and indoor and outdoor demonstration areas.

Key Features of the Exhibition

Cross-Value Chain Integration from Production to Sales

The exhibition comprehensively covers on-site challenges and business opportunities across the entire agricultural and livestock value chain—from "production and preparation," "cultivation and management," "harvesting and processing," to "distribution and sales." The event targets a diverse audience, including farmers, agricultural corporations, plant factories, JA cooperatives, agricultural supply stores, local governments, universities, and companies exploring entry into agriculture.

Broad Exhibition Categories Tailored to Northern Kanto and Surrounding Regions

Exhibition categories include rice and field crop cultivation, vegetable and fruit farming, floriculture, horticulture, plant factories, and livestock, as well as organic farming, reduced-pesticide and environmentally considerate agriculture, regenerative agriculture, AI and data utilization, drones, robotics, automation, e-commerce, branding strategies, logistics optimization, energy and infrastructure, manure treatment, and environmental measures. The structure is designed to support both on-site problem-solving and business management enhancement.

Enhanced Value as a Business Exhibition Based on AGTS Brand Track Record

The 2025 Aichi event attracted strong interest from agricultural and livestock professionals through special programs, seminars, and indoor and outdoor demonstration zones. The event also gained exposure through multiple media outlets, contributing to broader industry recognition.

The Gunma edition is expected to further increase its value as a platform for business negotiations, awareness building, and information dissemination.
