RISE UP AND LEAD: AFRICA’S YOUTH IN AGRICULTURE UNITE!

Africa’s biggest youth-in-agriculture gathering is back – and it’s only getting bigger!

Every year, the Mzansi Young Farmers Indaba attracts nearly 2 000 young farmers, agro-processors, and industry leaders over two action-packed days. In 2025, we welcomed attendees from 12 African countries, proving this is the place where the continent’s agri-future connects.

Early-bird tickets for 2026 are available now!

Get ready to join the brightest young agri-minds in Pretoria, South Africa – exact venue coming soon! Whether you want to level up your skills, connect with game-changing opportunities, or simply soak up the inspiration, this is where Africa’s next-generation farmers come together.

Remember the buzz from the 2025 Mzansi Young Farmers Indaba? It was nothing short of epic – and 2026 is set to blow it out of the park!

Here’s a taste of what went down last year:

  • Nearly 2 000 registrations – a massive jump from 2024, proving this is the place for young farmers and agripreneurs to level up.

  • Diverse, driven community – delegates came from across South Africa and 12 African countries, sharing knowledge, inspiration, and big ideas.

  • 55+ exhibitors – not just products on display, but real partnerships, funding, and opportunities up for grabs.

  • Global connections – from Botswana and Zimbabwe to Nigeria and beyond, the continent came together to shape the future of farming.

And now, 2026 is calling! Bigger, bolder, and packed with even more opportunities, this is where Africa’s next-generation farmers and agribusiness leaders unite.

Mark your calendars. The future of African agriculture starts here. Don’t miss it!

The next chapter of the Mzansi Young Farmers Indaba is about to get even bigger! Expect the who's who of agriculture to be there, from top-tier experts to game-changing CEOs. If 2025 was anything to go by, you're in for something massive.

  • Big brands, bigger opportunities: The indaba is the go-to platform for brands to flex their support for the next generation of farmers. In 2025, we saw massive investments and partnerships come to life. 2026 is set to open even more doors for funding, collaborations, and real business growth.
  • Masterclasses that matter: From enterprise development to cutting-edge biotech, mechanisation, and more, 2026 will offer even deeper dives into the innovations and strategies driving the agricultural sector forward. These sessions are designed to give you the edge you need to take your farming career to the next level.
  • Empowering communities: Expect powerful projects aimed at transforming local agri-communities, giving new-era farmers the tools and connections to thrive. The indaba is all about creating real, lasting impact.
