The Indiana Farm Equipment and Technology Expo has made the difficult decision not to continue the Expo in its current form and under current management. The multiple reasons for this decision include increasing costs, labor shortages, and the desire by the two companies who own the Expo to move in different directions.
In 2018, Hoosier Ag Today and Mid-Country Media purchased the show which was scheduled for termination by then current owner Dick Sherman.
“We took this step because we felt the show was important for Indiana agriculture and for the companies that serve it. We still feel that way today, but the world and the farm economy have changed a good deal since then. We feel the current format of the show is unsustainable,” says Hoosier Ag Today’s Gary Truitt.
Hoosier Ag Today plans to hold a series of smaller regional events around the state in the coming years. Watch for details on events being planned for fall of 2023 and for 2024.
In the meantime, both Farm World and Hoosier Ag Today will be glad to work with exhibitors to reach their customers and to promote their products and services to Indiana farmers.
