The Philippines will exhibit a number of its locally-developed farm mechanization technologies at the 2017 South East Asian Agri Business Show (SIMA Asean 2017) set for August 7-8 in Bangkok, to demonstrate that the country’s agriculture sector is undergoing modernization.

The country will be primarily represented in the event by the Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization (PhilMech), an agency under the Department of Agriculture, which has developed numerous technologies to improve the efficiency of farming for rice, corn, cassava, coffee, cacao, soybean, among others. PhilMech will have a booth in the event where it can give information on the technologies it has developed.
