Ontario Forage Expo 2019 “Hay Making in Motion”

The Ontario Forage Council, in conjunction with the Perth and Victoria County Soil and Crop Improvement Associations, are proud to announce Ontario Forage Expo 2019 - Forage Equipment Demonstrations and Trade Show.
 
Perth County will host a location on Tuesday, July 9th at Pendora Dairy Ltd., 6447 Road 164 Monkton, ON, and Victoria County will host an eastern location at Vosbrae Farms, 140 Skyline Rd., on Tuesday, July 16th in Oakwood, ON. Additional address details will be added to our website: http://www.ontarioforagecouncil.com/programs/ontario-forage-expo
 
This year’s demonstrations will include equipment from the leaders in forage production equipment. Attendees will not only have the chance to see what’s new for 2019 but will also have the unique opportunity to witness this equipment in head to head field trials! Equipment will include various mowers, conditioners, rakes, tedders, windrow inverters, mergers, harvesters, dump wagons, large round balers, large square balers, small square bale bundlers, bale wrappers and bale grapplers. This event will provide the opportunity for farmers to view the latest technology available to harvest forage quickly with minimal loss and maximum quality. Ian McDonald and Christine O’Reilly, OMAFRA will be in the field, working with the equipment companies to provide information to farmers and answer questions. This is important in making decisions on investments which ultimately enhance their farm operations in capacity, minimizing harvest losses, product quality and profitability.
 
This event is FREE TO THE FARMING COMMUNITY! Lunch will be available on-site at a nominal fee, and no pre-registration is required.
 
Trade show, demonstration and sponsorship opportunities are still available for this event. Spaces are limited and will fill quickly, so don’t hesitate. Ontario Forage Expo is an excellent opportunity to advertise to a forage focused audience compiled of producers from counties across the province!
