Mark Your Calendars for the 2015 Corn/Soy EXPO
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 11/18/2014

Planning is already underway for the Wisconsin Corn/Soy EXPO educational sessions and trade show, scheduled for January 29-30, 2015 at the Kalahari Conference Center in Wisconsin Dells. Organizers say the event will kick off with an early riser session featuring University of Wisconsin-Extension Ag Economist Paul Mitchell, followed by a presentation by Dr. David Kohl.

Other educational breakout sessions will cover topics like implementing the new farm bill, utility of fungicides in corn and soybeans, using big data on your farm, dairy manure application, and PEDv updates in the swine industry.

On day two, attendees will hear Darin Newsom of Telvent DTN, who will provide a market outlook update. Humorist Damian Mason is the featured speaker for Friday's luncheon and the day concludes with a bonus agronomic session by Brian Hefty.

As always, the event serves as the annual meeting spot for the Wisconsin Corn Growers Association, Wisconsin Corn Promotion Board, Wisconsin Soybean Association and Wisconsin Soybean Marketing Board, and Wisconsin Pork Association.

The annual event provides an opportunity for producers to mix business with family time at a popular Wisconsin winter destination. Admission to the Pork Producers Taste of Elegance reception is included as part of Corn/Soy EXPO and a special overnight standard room rated at the Kalahari are available for registered conference attendees.

Registration materials are available online at www.cornsoyexpo.org or you can request information by calling the Wisconsin Soybean Program office at 608-274-752 or the Wisconsin Corn Program office at 262-495-2232.
