Langham, Sask., July 18, 2023 – The wait is over for farmers and visitors who have been looking forward to attending Ag in Motion, Western Canada’s largest outdoor farm expo with a record number of companies ready to showcase equipment, livestock, crops and the latest in agriculture technology.
“We have all been looking forward to this week for quite some time,” says Show Director Rob O’Connor. “It’s the best feeling to bring the Discovery Farm Langham site alive with a record number of 580 exhibitors. These companies are bringing farmers an incredible line up of demonstrations, new product launches and exciting new features to see and experience for the next three days.”
Ag in Motion gates opened Tuesday morning at 8:30 a.m. to thousands of visitors who come to take in everything the farm show has to offer in one place:

We know visitors will find something new and interesting to see.”
