Event Description

Central Ontario Agricultural Conference is a 3 day series of educational programming for farmers. This conference is formerly known as "Ag Info Days". The steering committee is comprised of a dedicated group of volunteers representing farm commodity groups in the region. These volunteers and their subcommittees work to develop the program content, contact speakers and sponsors and provide overall coordination.
The trade show is an important aspect of the event. It provides farm suppliers and farmers with the opportunity to meet and learn about the latest information on inputs, equipment, programs and services.

Alberta’s 2026 crop is still looking comparatively strong heading into August, but the provincial average masks very different conditions from one end of the province to the other. As of Aug. 4, 58.1 per cent of Alberta’s major crops were rated in good-to-excellent condition.
