Who would miss it? You bet I will be there and will definitely find the Agriville booth. That's the day our chicks "may" hatch.

Unless it RAINS or is WINDY as hell, this time in June is spray days, wish they had it later! Going to Saskatoon this year.
It's a 2.5 hr drive, long day, best time we had was camping for two nights, saw it ALL, relaxed, NOT worn out tired.
Enjoy it who goes.

Lots of cool stuff there, I am sure..
If we can't afford it..Why look?

[sawfly]

get to see how far back in the stone age I am.

[farmaholic]

There was a time I never went either, too busy paying off land to afford that new iron but now we go. Maybe it's time to buy some more dirt so I stay home ;-)

The size of some of the stuff is getting ridiculous. But I was told as long as guys keep buying it they will keep building it. Can you imagine what some of the old-timers think who used small double disc press drills and see the size of some of the behemoth seeding outfits today. You have to wonder what the future holds.

[ALBERTAFARMER4]

The future is likely fully automated. The family farm will be extinct. Only hutterite colonies and large corporate farms. One chemical company, one single grain buyer, and one equipment company (JohnDeereCNHAgco, or JDCNHA for short).

Well run family farms with good business sense will always be there . Will they be larger , most likely - to a point. The big corporate thing has already failed - a few times . Too many variables and too many hands in the cookie jar - JMO
