• AgDays 2027: January 19, 20 and 21 - 9am to 5pm Daily

Uncategorized

Manitoba Ag Days is where the ag year begins! The program is finalized and the speaking line up is
phenomenal. The program committee listened to requests and suggestions as they assembled a
speaking line up that’s all agriculture. “We have two theaters running for all three days, with a full day of
presenters in each location. Once you browse the program you will want to come to all three days of the
show!” exclaimed Hannah Minshull, program committee lead for Manitoba Ag Days.

We know that our attendees like to hear about the many different topics that impact their farming
operations. Our speakers include industry experts like agronomists, economists and entomologists. We
also have speakers who run operations like those of our attendees; farmers who make decisions about
fertility, weaning practices and marketing risks as part of their farming operations.

We are very fortunate to work with great partners like Manitoba Canola Growers Association, Manitoba
Crop Alliance and Manitoba Pulse and Soybean Growers. Each of these grower associations supports a
half day of our program that focuses specifically on current research, the most prevalent issues from the
past growing season and how to best prepare for the upcoming season. “We take great pride in having a
speaker program with something for everyone.” noted Minshull.

“The Innovation Showcase is back for its sixth year and we couldn’t keep it to just 32 entries, so this
year we have a field of 34 innovations vying for the top spot in each of our seven categories”, stated
Dwayne Leslie, Manitoba Ag Days Innovation Showcase Committee Chair. The seven categories
include: Ag Technology, Agribusiness Services, Agricultural Equipment, Agronomics, Animal and
Livestock, Farm Built Solutions and Farm Safety.

The Innovation Showcase highlights products and services across a wide range of applications and
helps both the contenders and the producers bridge from innovative ideas to on-farm adoption. Leslie
went on to say “Many companies have gotten their start at our show and we couldn’t be happier to
help. This showcase provides an opportunity for innovators to get direct feedback from producers,
and the producers also benefit because they get to ask questions to see how an innovation could fit in
their operation.”

The Innovation Showcase Committee will visit with each entrant before determining the winner in
each category. Winners will be announced live at the show on Wednesday, January 22, at 10am.

On farms and ranches all over the prairies fall work is in full swing in preparation for the winter months
ahead. The Manitoba Ag Days board is also busy making plans – for the 48th annual show! For three days
the Keystone Centre in Brandon Manitoba is the home to Canada’s largest indoor farm show. Over 550
exhibitors will showcase the newest thinking, products and technology specifically for prairie farmers.
There is also a complimentary speaking program running in two theatres over all three days. Farmers and
industry experts are ready to talk about markets, agronomy, equipment and livestock. Mark your
calendars for January 21-23, 2025.

of Directors is proud of the people, products and technologies that are produced locally. “We really want
to continue to shine a light on the great things happening right here.” commented Board Co-Chair Dustin
Williams.
