Agricultural Olympiad season 4 launches to inspire young agriculturists
"Youth in Action, Smarter Farming in Motion" with this motto, the Bangladesh Agricultural Olympiad (BAO) has launched the fourth season of its national competition, powered by iFarmer Asia.
The Bangladesh Agricultural Olympiad is an initiative aimed at inspiring young people to pursue careers in agriculture and develop future agricultural leaders to ensure sustainable food and nutrition security. BAO began operations in 2020 as the country's first agricultural platform dedicated to youth and aspiring agriculturists. Since then, it has organised a series of visually engaging and educational events to promote agricultural awareness nationwide. Continuing this effort, BAO has now launched "Agricultural Olympiad Season 4".
Students enrolled in undergraduate programmes, internships, or master's programmes aged not more than 25 are eligible to participate. The competition features nine categories: agriculture; livestock production; animal health and medicine; fisheries; agricultural innovation and technologies; food and nutrition; agribusiness and agricultural economics; biotechnology and genetics; and climate and environmental science.
