Dear colleagues...

Turkish Guild of Agricultural Journalists (TGAJ) is organizing the Eurasian and Balkan Countries Agricultural Journalists Forum between 04 - 08 November 2019 in Antalya.

This event will be held in coordination with IFAJ as usual.

All expenses (accommodations, meals and transfers) excluding air fares will be covered by host organization, Growtech 19. International Greenhouse, Agricultural Technology and Livestock Equipment Fair (to be held 27 - 30 November 2019 in Antalya).

The programme will comprise three full days and four nights (04 November Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights).

That means 04 November (Monday) arriving and 08 November (Friday) leaving days.

On the first day (05 November Tuesday) we will have the Forum.

On second and third days (06 November Wednesday and 07 November Thursday) we will visit farms, greenhouses and orchards. Meanwhile we will be participating in some meetings to be held by Chamber of Agriculture, Commodity Exchange and/or Association of Mediterranean Exporters.

Antalya is a leading agricultural province in Turkey by the way. In particular greenhouses along with production of fresh fruits and vegetables are remarkable.

On the other hand Antalya is a prominent touristic region as well that attracts 14 million of tourists from all over the world. I hope we have an opportunity to enjoy swimming at that time.

Dear friends, I would like to note that it is not required being a national from Eurasian and Balkan countries (23 countries). We may host around 50 colleagues so it doesn't matter whether or not Eurasian or Balkan journalist.

Details of the programme will be determined in a short time.

Kind regards...

İsmail Uğural

President of TGAJ

As a result, orders from Asian and European purchasing groups have significantly increased – up to 100% in some product categories, sector representatives said. Many purchasing groups from Asia to Europe shifted their orders to Turkey, especially for products like packaged food. Turkey Food and Beverage Industry Associations Federation Vice Chairman Rint Akyüz said they expect food exports to reach $20 billion this year. The bestselling products during this period were ketchup, various kinds of sauce and tomato paste in particular. Turkish tomato paste producers, which rank fourth after America, China, Spain and Italy, have seen orders increase significantly. Sector representatives believe Turkey has emerged as a reliable alternative. Even Asian buyers now have he...
