“Farm Technology Days combines commercial exhibits, field demonstrations, farm tours and fun," said Wisconsin Secretary of Agriculture Ben Brancel. "I hope farmers will come to the event to hear the latest research, gain greater understanding of current issues and learn about available programs and services. Visitors can tour the farm, learn about new technologies and learn how food gets from the farm to the table."

This year’s show will be held at the Statz Bros. farm located in Marshall, Wisconsin and feature more than 600 exhibitors in one location to help farmers with their agricultural or technological challenges.

Some of the themes that will be displayed during the show include:

  • Cover crops
  • Specialty crops
  • Precision ag
  • Animal care
  • Field crops
  • Vegetables
  • Horticulture

"As part of our agency’s focus on customer service, we want to ensure that attendees can learn about topics of interest to them and get their questions answered," said Brancel. "I enjoy visiting Farm Technology Days each year and hope that all attendees are able to take advantage of the many exhibits and resources that are available."

The show takes place in Wisconsin’s Dane County, the most productive agricultural county in the state.
