In pursuit of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision to make Indian agriculture stronger and more self-reliant, the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare, Government of India, will host the National FPO Samagam 2025 on October 30–31, 2025, at the NCDC and NCUI Complex, Hauz Khas, New Delhi.
This grand event marks a significant milestone in India’s agricultural journey, celebrating the success of the Formation and Promotion of 10,000 Farmer-Producer Organizations (FPOs) initiative, while reinforcing the mission to empower farmers through collaboration, technology adoption, and value-driven agribusiness.

Celebrating the Strength of Farmer Collectives

The two-day gathering will bring together over 500 farmers from 24 States and 140 districts, alongside representatives from Implementing Agencies (IAs), Cluster-Based Business Organizations (CBBOs), and leading Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs).
A key attraction of the event will be an exhibition of 267 FPOs, displaying innovative agricultural practices and regionally diverse products that embody India’s vast farming potential.

Showcasing India’s Agricultural Diversity

Out of the 267 exhibits, 57 FPOs will set up stalls at the NCDC premises in Hauz Khas, presenting a colorful and diverse range of produce and processed goods.
The exhibits will feature products from multiple categories such as grains, pulses, millets, spices, oilseeds, fruits, vegetables, honey, tea, coffee, dairy, and organic produce. Visitors will also witness a rich assortment of value-added products including pickles, jams, jaggery, herbal products, dry fruits, and traditional foods handcrafted by rural entrepreneurs.

The display will symbolize the spirit of “One India – One Agriculture”, demonstrating how FPOs from every corner of the nation are joining forces to strengthen India’s agri-economy through innovation, cooperation, and market-oriented growth.
