2018 Indiana Farm Show
Indiana-Illinois Farm and Outdoor Power Equipment Show NOW Indiana Farm Equipment Technology Expo
Hoosier Ag Today, Indiana’s premier agricultural radio network, and Farm World, one of the oldest and largest weekly farm newspapers in the Eastern Corn Belt, have jointly purchased the Indiana-Illinois Farm and Outdoor Power Equipment Show from Richard Sherman, who has operated the show the past 39 years. The show will be held December 11 – 13, 2018 at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.
The Indiana Farm Show will focus a great deal on new Ag technology and product innovation in Indiana farm equipment, seed genetics, precision agriculture, bio-science, robotics, sensors, big data, artificial intelligence, and more. A practical showcase of the latest technology and innovation that farmers can take home and put to work in their operations. To reflect this, the name of the show has been changed to The Indiana Farm Equipment and Technology Expo. The show will be interactive, with daily live demonstrations of new products and technology as well as an expanded series of educational seminars. One tradition will not change, however, admission to the show is free.
