With 75 exhibitors taking part in the Redvers Ag Ex Trade Show on April 11, there was plenty to see and do. 

Precision agriculture displays, environmental information booths and innovative crop technology exhibitors rubbed elbows with home and leisure and lifestyle booths, all located at the Redvers Recreation Centre. 

Children of all ages enjoyed the petting zoo, while the Ag in the Classroom presentation and a demonstration by the Redvers Fire Department on how to escape if trapped in a grain bin added extra educational value. 

Leah Olson, CEO of Dot Technology Corp., spoke on the Future of Autonomous Farming, and she was followed by the David Marit, the provincial Minister of Agriculture. 

Redvers Day Care served the noon lunch and the Air Cadets were busy helping exhibitors unload in the morning, delivering lunch at noon and assisting with loading up at the end of the day. 

While it was a cool day, it was well attended and everyone seemed to enjoy visiting, checking out the booths and enjoying the food and hot beverages.
