Wisconsin Public Service is ready to welcome farmers from across Wisconsin back to a springtime tradition that continues to help them succeed and thrive. The WPS Farm Show returns March 24-26 at the Experimental Aircraft Association grounds in Oshkosh.
About 20,000 people are expected to attend!
This year’s show will feature hundreds of the latest advancements in agriculture from businesses across North America. Visitors can get an up-close look at hundreds of products packed into four hangars and two exhibitor tents. Farmers can also visit the renovated WPS booth in Hangar A to see the latest electrical systems that can help farms use energy safely and efficiently.
A total of 400 exhibitors from the U.S. and Canada will attend this year’s WPS Farm Show. They will be displaying a wide variety of innovations, including animal nutrition products, crop and plant health innovations, large farm machinery, precision planting equipment, and robotic milking systems.
WPS first began hosting the WPS Farm Show in 1961. Each year, the show supports farms of all sizes, from small family farms to large dairy operations. It connects farmers with exhibitors whose products can help their farms continue to grow and thrive. The event also allows WPS employees to meet with farmers and share options that can help them improve their farms’ energy efficiency.
