Wisconsin Public Service (WPS) is set to host its 63rd annual WPS Farm Show from April 1-3 at the EAA grounds in Oshkosh, continuing its long-standing tradition of supporting the agricultural community. This event offers farmers a platform to explore the latest innovations and solutions in the industry.
“We can’t wait to welcome visitors from around the country to this springtime tradition that’s supported generations of farmers,” said Rob Juneau, manager - WPS Farm Show. “Wisconsin farms are essential to feeding people around the world and to helping our communities remain strong. We’re proud to host the WPS Farm Show once again to help connect farmers with the latest innovations that can help them succeed for decades to come.”
This year, the show has expanded to include a second outdoor exhibitor tent, accommodating nearly 30 additional exhibitors and a wider range of products.
The event is expected to draw approximately 20,000 attendees and feature over 400 exhibitors from 21 states and three countries.
The WPS Farm Show showcases a diverse array of agricultural innovations, including animal nutrition products, large farm machinery, precision planting technology, and robotic milking equipment.
With 66 new exhibitors, attendees will discover fresh solutions in animal health, multi-purpose machinery, seed handling, and soil health.
Since 1961, WPS has been committed to helping farmers in the Upper Midwest improve their operational efficiency. The show serves as a vital link between farmers and exhibitors offering products that promote farm growth and success.
Attendees can also engage with WPS agricultural consultants at their booth in Hangar A to discuss energy efficiency on farms. Modern farm wiring displays and energy management strategies will be available.
The WPS Farm Show also features a food tent with offerings from state nonprofit groups, a kids’ tractor pull event, a silent auction benefiting the Wisconsin FFA Foundation, and free health screenings provided by UW-Oshkosh nursing students.
The show runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on April 1 and 2, and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on April 3. Admission is free, with a $5 parking fee at the EAA grounds.
