Agribition impresses first-time visitors

The international presence at Canadian Western Agribition is returning to pre-pandemic levels.

After only about 100 visitors from 20 countries visited in 2021 due to travel restrictions, the 2022 show saw 1,200 guests from 63 countries.

Jeremy Walsh from Dubbo, New South Wales, Australia, was a first-time visitor who said the show exceeded all his expectations.

“I think it’s the place that everybody in the world should be at the moment,” he said. “It’s an event that’s world class, absolutely world class.”

He even liked the weather.

“I’m 47 and the first time I’ve had any interaction with snow in my life is when I jumped off the airplane,” he said.

Walsh and his family raise about 400 beef cattle and sheep on their operation and they imported Canadian genetics last year.
