2025

“The Innovation Showcase is back for its sixth year and we couldn’t keep it to just 32 entries, so this
year we have a field of 34 innovations vying for the top spot in each of our seven categories”, stated
Dwayne Leslie, Manitoba Ag Days Innovation Showcase Committee Chair. The seven categories
include: Ag Technology, Agribusiness Services, Agricultural Equipment, Agronomics, Animal and
Livestock, Farm Built Solutions and Farm Safety.

The Innovation Showcase highlights products and services across a wide range of applications and
helps both the contenders and the producers bridge from innovative ideas to on-farm adoption. Leslie
went on to say “Many companies have gotten their start at our show and we couldn’t be happier to
help. This showcase provides an opportunity for innovators to get direct feedback from producers,
and the producers also benefit because they get to ask questions to see how an innovation could fit in
their operation.”

The Innovation Showcase Committee will visit with each entrant before determining the winner in
each category. Winners will be announced live at the show on Wednesday, January 22, at 10am.
We invite you to learn more about the 2025 Innovation Showcase contenders by connecting with

On farms and ranches all over the prairies fall work is in full swing in preparation for the winter months
ahead. The Manitoba Ag Days board is also busy making plans – for the 48th annual show! For three days
the Keystone Centre in Brandon Manitoba is the home to Canada’s largest indoor farm show. Over 550
exhibitors will showcase the newest thinking, products and technology specifically for prairie farmers.
There is also a complimentary speaking program running in two theatres over all three days. Farmers and
industry experts are ready to talk about markets, agronomy, equipment and livestock. Mark your
calendars for January 21-23, 2025.

The Produced on the Prairies theme was such a success that it will be back for the 2025 show. The Board
of Directors is proud of the people, products and technologies that are produced locally. “We really want
to continue to shine a light on the great things happening right here.” commented Board Co-Chair Dustin
Williams.

Manitoba Ag Days Gives Back is into its second decade of supporting community grants and K-12 and
post secondary agricultural education. Applications for grants and scholarships are open now and can be
found at https://www.agdays.com/community-giving-program/ Applications for these $2000 grants and
scholarships will be accepted until November 1, 2024 and winners will be announced at the show in
January.

Another show favourite that will be returning is the Innovation Showcase, which features 32 must-see
products and services that are new to the agriculture industry. This Showcase allows farmers and
ranchers to ask specific questions and see product quality first hand. Agriculture is an ever-changing
industry and Manitoba Ag Days’ knows that producers want to be informed about how to keep their
operations nimble and adaptable.

Of course, the 2025 show will have a number of new features as well. Keep watching for more
information. You can find the latest updates and purchase admission tickets at https://www.agdays.com/
