Langham, Sask., June 18, 2024 – Celebrating its tenth year of growth, Ag in Motion returns on July 16-18, 2024, to give Prairie farmers a chance to see what’s new in agriculture and connect with others in the industry.
“Agriculture is a remote business, and as farms get bigger, neighbours are farther away,” says Rob O’Connor, business development lead and show director for Ag in Motion. “This show has become a way for farmers to connect, share their passion for farming, discuss business and meet others who have similar interests in agriculture.”
Ag in Motion is Western Canada’s largest outdoor annual farm show with over 100 acres of trade show exhibits. Companies share products and new technology at the three-day farm show with live in-field demonstrations, ride and drives and a showcase of over 550 exhibitors. In 2023, Ag in Motion reached a record attendance of 31,166 guests. Event organizers anticipate a similar crowd in 2024.
The 2024 Ag in Motion show highlights include:
- Equipment Demonstrations: large-scale machinery demonstrations, presented by AgDealer, take place in the fields and feature equipment from dozens of companies including rock pickers, land scrapers, drone technology, sprayers, and more
- Antique Tractor Pull: a new event in Livestock Central has vintage tractors manufactured before 1965 pulling a weighted sled and competing for which tractors can pull the heaviest loads
- Ride & Drives: farmers can test-drive sprayers, tractors, compact loaders and skid steers
- Crop Plot Displays: a showcase of 27 companies sharing seed, fertilizers, plant health, and crop protection products for common Prairie crops
- Livestock Central: industry-specific information, equipment demonstrations and displays specific to beef, dairy, goat and sheep producers
- Special Events: network and learn at the AgTech Breakfast, Career Crawl, and more
“Decisions are made in the field, and Ag in Motion has always been known as an event that helps inform farmers on key business decisions for their operation,” O’Connor says. “As an outdoor show, we have the room to show farmers large equipment operating in the dirt from many companies all in one area, which is pretty unique.”
