As announced by the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) on Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to inaugurate the 32nd International Conference of Agricultural Economists (ICAE) on Saturday at the National Agricultural Science Centre (NASC) Complex, New Delhi.
This year, the International Association of Agricultural Economists is hosting the triennial ICAE from 2 to 7 August, marking the first time in 65 years that India is holding the conference.
The event will attract around 1,000 delegates from approximately 75 countries, underscoring its global significance.
