Kota Kinabalu: Sabah will host the National Farmers, Breeders and Fishermen’s Day (HPPNK) 2025, which is expected to take place in August.

Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu said Sabah was chosen as the host after 30 years as the event was last held in the State in 1995.

“Various activities will be organised throughout the HPPNK celebration, including exhibitions, business showcases and demonstrations of modern agricultural equipment, similar to what was done in Perak last year.

“Sabah was chosen as the host because the last time it hosted HPPNK was 30 years ago. Moreover, Sabah is suitable for future agricultural development. “We will also carry out promotional activities for HPPNK, such as a road tour in July,” he said to the media after paying a courtesy call on Head of State Tun Musa Aman, Monday.

According to Mohamad, the courtesy visit aimed to strengthen the cooperation between the Ministry and the State, as well as to inform about the upcoming HPPNK event in the State.

Also present was Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Food Security, Datuk Arthur Joseph Kurup.
