“We are happy and acknowledge an increasing responsibility that Indagra is growing from year to year. The fact that we bring to the public an event of such amplitude for the national economy is proof that the Romanian agriculture is a domain to be further sustained and developed in the future,” said Catalin Trifu, general director at Romexpo.
