MAHA Expo 2022 (5 AUG 2022) Serdang Malaysia Morning Walk Part 1/5

Updated: Nov 2

Visited on: 5 AUGUST 2022


MAHA, short for Malaysia Agriculture, Horticulture & Agrotourism, is the region's premier agricultural exhibition. Held every two years, MAHA provides a platform for government agencies, businesses, and innovators to connect, collaborate, and showcase the latest advancements in the agricultural and agro-based industries.


The 2022 edition, themed "Food Security for the Future," took place from August 4-14 at MAEPS Serdang, Malaysia. This event offered a comprehensive overview of the agricultural ecosystem, from input suppliers to consumers, and highlighted the integration of technology and data analytics into modern farming practices.


The MAHA 2022 visit began with an early arrival at the closest parking area, followed by a walk to the pedestrian entrance. The tour kicked off with an overview of the Castle of Fruits, before entering the Dewan Pameran Utama and passing through Dewan Agrobusiness. After navigating the event's layout, the journey included stops at various state pavilions. Highlights included exploring the Pavilion Negeri Sembilan, discovering massive okra and chili plants, and visiting travel and cultural booths. The tour continued through Pavilion Melaka, with a taste of local delicacies, and Pavilion Perlis, where bird's nest products and butterscotch popcorn were featured.


The Pavilion Perak offered insights into SmartFarming, food security, urban agriculture, and traditional crafts like Tekatan Benang Emas. The exploration also included learning about new agricultural technologies and cultural foods. After a brief breakfast break in Pavilion Sarawak, the day concluded with more food tastings at Dewan Agrobusiness, a cooking demonstration, and a wefie session before heading back to the parking area. The visit wrapped up with refreshments and final reflections on the diverse agricultural displays and cultural experiences at MAHA 2022.
