    Eastern Cape revives agricultural shows to boost smallholder farmers market

    June 18, 20252 Mins Read


    Wednesday, June 18, 2025

    The Eastern Cape Department of Agriculture has revived its famous agricultural shows that have long served as a platform for celebrating excellence in farming, with a renewed focus on promoting market access for smallholder farmers.

    While traditionally the shows centred on product quality and category-based judging, the department announced that the agricultural model is being reimagined with a renewed focus of enabling market access and fostering commercial opportunities.

    Starting this year, four agricultural shows will be hosted annually – one per quarter across key regions.

    “These events will provide a platform for smallholder farmers to exhibit their produce, network with industry players, and gain critical insights into market trends, financial products, and modern agricultural technologies,” the department said in a statement on Tuesday.

    To achieve this goal, the department has partnered with the Buffalo City Municipality (BCM) Fresh Produce Market, Eastern Cape Development Corporation, Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA), and Amathole District Municipality.

    The department’s Amathole District, which encompasses BCM, will support 150 smallholder farmers representing diverse commodities to exhibit their produce at the agricultural show, scheduled to be held in the Bhisho Showgrounds.

    Major buyers from the BCM Fresh Produce Market have been invited to engage with participating smallholder farmers who will exhibiting in the agricultural show, to foster stronger commercial linkages and better understand the market needs.

    Agriculture MEC Nonceba Kontsiwe is expected to officiate the celebration of farmers excellence in an event that will be held at Bhisho Showgrounds on Wednesday. – SAnews.gov.za
