Manitoba Ag Ex Returns To Brandon

The Provincial Exhibition of Manitoba is bringing Manitoba Ag Ex back to the Keystone Centre in Brandon starting Wednesday.

"It's been a long time since we've had an event. Everybody is excited to come because it's been a long time since people have gotten together," said Dallas Johnston, co-chair of the Manitoba Ag Ex committee. "In the cattle business, you're always looking forward to showcasing what you're raising at home and hopefully entice some other breeders to get interested in your program and buy a female or a bull from you in the future."

Manitoba Ag Ex is the largest all-breeds cattle show in Manitoba.

Johnston says this year they are down to about 270 head of cattle, which he says is to be expected given the current situation. He adds this will be the first agriculture related event hosted by the Provincial Ex since the pandemic started.

Manitoba Ag Ex is entirely focused on the cattle industry, and attendees are all part of the agricultural industry.

In this interview, Jay Halliday of Vaxxinova US discusses how advanced diagnostic technologies are helping pork producers better identify, monitor, and respond to disease challenges within their herds.
Unlike traditional diagnostic methods, WGS enables the identification of multiple pathogens within a sample, supports surveillance of emerging variants, helps evaluate feedback programs, and improves isolate selection for autogenous vaccine development.
The conversation also explores the importance of customized vaccine solutions and the role of adjuvants such as Amplivac™ and Trigen™ in enhancing immune responses against key swine pathogens.
