We could not put on such a world class speaking event if it were not for our partnerships with FCC, MNP, Manitoba Agriculture, Manitoba Canola Growers Association, Manitoba Crop Alliance and the Manitoba Pulse and Soybean Growers Association and of course the presenters themselves. We thank you for partnering with us for the 2024 Show!

For the last 3.5 years, he has worked at FarmLink as the Chief Market Analyst. Neil works with his team to make sense of the markets and advise farmer clients on timing of sales and marketing strategy. Before embarking on his Canadian ag career, Neil spent three years trying to buffer Northeastern Thai farmers from information disequilibrium. He lives in Winnipeg with his wife and three sons.
