The annual symposium of the Department of Agriculture (ASDA), the largest annual forum for agriculture professionals is ready for its 25^th milestone in 2023.

On behalf of the organizing committee, I am pleased to invite you all to take part in ASDA 2023. The forum is open for research and development streams, as well as the Department of Agriculture and the Provincial Departments of Agriculture. ASDA is the platform to share all your scientific findings, and take them to the national and international level, while disseminating the latest technologies to those who need them the most.

ASDA is the most significant event of the Department of Agriculture. The 25^th Annual Symposium will continue the long history of gathering researchers, extensionists, academia, and scientists across the country to discuss key agricultural research findings and publicize important information.

The symposium sessions will be geared toward identifying shared interests and fostering collaboration between the various disciplines.

We aim to publish all your scientific findings through ASDA and see all researchers and extensionists around the country partaking in an engaging and diverse scientific program. Several world-renown scientists around the world will be delivering invited speeches.

We hope you will join us for the 25^th Annual Symposium of the Department of Agriculture, and we look forward to meeting you at another fruitful event.
