Anyone going to Louisville Farm Show This Year?

I can't make it but a friend of mine is going...told him to keep an eye out for new tillage machines.

I would like to know what guys saw that was interesting to them...what was new.

Thanks

Just gotta say - we went to the Louisville show about 4 years ago, and the difference between how we are treated as farmers in Ontario, compared to how we were treated when we identified ourselves as farmers in the US was incredible!!

If you want to be a farmer, and be RESPECTED for your profession, Ontario and its urban centres sure aren't the place to find that, but head out for holidays to the US, mention what you do, and watch how folks seem grateful for what you do and what you represent.

Made me proud to be a farmer, but disappointed to be an Ontarian!!
