The aim of the project is to establish stronger connections and collective presentations in on the agricultural market, as well as to look for the ways for rural areas to survive and develop. On Sunday, 10th May, there will be a panel-talk on cooperation opportunities and development of cooperatives on the territory of former Yugoslavia.
There will also be an education aspect of this gathering, since the latest achievements in agricultural production and management skills will be presented.
Many cooperatives will be present at the Fair through the aid of their respective municipalities, who will organise presentations of specific products, as well as other potentials, cultural and artistic life in certain regions. Tourist events will also be presented.
