It's known as Western Canada's premiere grain industry showcase and it's coming up early next month.
The Western Canadian Crop Production Show takes place in Saskatoon from January 9 to 12. The four-day event features more than 300 exhibitors and over 95 per cent of the people who walk through the doors are directly involved in the grain industry.
The only exhibits you will find on the trade show floor are those directly related to crop production.
"It's a must-attend event for every single prairie farmer," said Leigh-Ann Hurlburt, Agriculture Manager for Saskatoon Prairieland Park Corporation. "This event is a true leader in the field of crop science and technology. Our exhibitors come from all over Western Canada ar the northern United States, it really is amazing."
The event will also be celebrating its 40th annual show. At the show, you will get to see and learn about all the latest technology in seeding, spraying, and harvesting. Tickets are just $20 and you can get them at the door or you can also get them at Crop Production Show.
There will also be several presentations in the Nufarm Information Theatre beginning on January 9 with 'what pulse crops want to tell you about Aphanomyces and Fusarium' and running right up until the final presentation on January 12 with 'oilseed crop update' from 2:30 to 3:30.
"There are very specific criteria to get into this show," said Hurlburt. "Everything that you see at our show and the exhibitors you speak with are all here to help you get the crop in the ground and get the most out of it possible."
Five buildings are used for the event with more than 950 trade show spaces featuring the largest equipment in agriculture today.
"Everything you need to assure you will have a successful growing season, we have it here," ended Hurlburt.
