NAMPO CAPE 2025 TO SPOTLIGHT SMART FARMING SOLUTIONS FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

17 Jun 2025

As the global agricultural landscape evolves under the weight of climate stress, population growth and food security challenges, NAMPO Cape 2025 will once again serve as a premier platform where producers meet progress. From 10 to 13 September 2025, Bredasdorp Park will host the Western Cape’s signature agri event, spotlighting this year’s theme: “Smart Technology for Efficient Resource Management.”

Presented by Bredasdorp Park NPC in collaboration with Grain SA, NAMPO Cape 2025 invites farmers, agri-professionals, and the public to explore how innovation and sustainability intersect to unlock the future of farming in South Africa.

Theme: Smart Technology for Efficient Resource Management

The theme for this year’s expo underlines one of the most pressing imperatives in agriculture today: doing more with less. With increasing pressure on land, water, energy, and soil resources, farmers are turning to smart technology to streamline inputs, reduce waste, and improve productivity across the value chain.

“Technology has become essential to navigating the future of farming. Whether it's AI, sensors, drones, or data platforms, these innovations help farmers make better decisions, save resources, and stay competitive. At NAMPO Cape, we bring those solutions to life in a real-world environment,” says Dr Dirk Strydom, Managing Director of NAMPO (Pty) Ltd. “Smart resource management is not a luxury anymore - it's a necessity for every producer who wants to remain viable and future-ready.”
