AGRAVIA is the largest international exhibition of agro-industrial technologies, covering all key areas of agriculture. Its comprehensive format—from field and farm to processing—includes modern solutions for livestock and crop production, ensuring the effective development of agribusiness at enterprises of all sizes. The exhibition brings together participants from across Russia and neighboring countries and is accompanied by the industry's most extensive business program.
The AGRAVIA2026 "Best Product" competition, covering 14 categories from breeding and genetics to agricultural machinery, equipment, veterinary, and feed solutions, has become one of the exhibition's highlights. This year, over 160 applications were received—a record number in the competition's history, demonstrating the high demand in the industry for independent expert evaluation.
The "Innovative Irrigation System for 6,000 Hectares" project, developed jointly by the Federal State Budgetary Institution "Privolzhskmeliovodkhoz Administration" and the Tatarstan Trust Company, was presented in the "Machinery, Equipment, and Technologies for Open-Floor and Protected-Floor Crop Production" category.
A joint development between the Kazan State Agrarian University and the Tatarstan Land Reclamation Team also won the Best Product Competition, being recognized as the best in the "Breeding Solutions, Seed Production, Nutrition, and Plant Protection" category.
Tatarstan Land Reclamation Team also won and received the "iAGRI INNOVATION AWARD 2026" International Award for Innovative Solutions for the Agricultural Sector.
