Caribbean Week of Agriculture 2013 is the 12th edition of the Region’s premier agricultural event.
It will be hosted by the Government of Guyana at the Guyana International Conference Centre from October 4-12, under the theme `Linking the Caribbean for Regional Food and Nutrition Security and Rural Development’.
 The local steering committee, comprising members of the Ministry of Agriculture and other ministries and organisations, CARICOM, FAO & IICA met on July 18 and decided on a number of planning issues.

Agriculture Minister, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy says that he envisages that this event will see the transformation of the CWA into the Caribbean’s premier technical meeting for agriculture and will attract ministers, senior agriculture professionals, farmers and entrepreneurs who will be able to see, experience and learn about new trajectories for agriculture.
