December 3rd, 2025
Meet the 27 Innovation Showcase Contenders in the 2026 show
“The Innovation Showcase is back for its seventh year and we are pleased to have 27 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 21, at 10am.
