Manitoba Ag Days is Canada’s largest indoor farm show and the board and management team is excited to welcome guests to the Keystone Center in Brandon, MB. Kristen Phillips, Manitoba Ag Days General Manager said, “The show highlights the best of all things agriculture! We are ready to welcome our guests each day to our dominant trade show, our exciting complementary speaker program, innovative thinking in our Innovation Showcase entries and an atmosphere second to none. If it has anything to do with Agriculture you will find it at our show!”
