As India’s first planned city, Chandigarh offers world-class infrastructure, excellent connectivity by air, road, and rail, and a clean, well-organized environment conducive for large-scale international exhibitions. The Parade Ground in Sector 17, centrally located and well-equipped, has successfully hosted previous editions of CII AgroTech India with ample space for both indoor and outdoor exhibits, live demonstrations, and farmer gatherings.
The city is also home to leading agricultural research institutions, universities, and government bodies, enabling strong academic-industry-policy engagement. Its accessibility to top agri-tech manufacturers, distribution networks, and input suppliers makes it the natural hub for technology dissemination in agriculture.
