Farm, Commodity,
Trade Associations Convene For Annual Meetings
|

|
As the New Year begins, many commodity groups and trade associations
will conduct their annual conventions and meetings early in 2003. These
meetings, both educational and entertaining, offer attendees the latest
information on farm policy, research, farm management practices and
new technologies. At the trade shows, attendees see first-hand whats
new in farm equipment, seeds, crop protection and other products and
services. Producers also have the opportunity to network with other
farmers, agribusiness leaders and key figures in agriculture.
New Holland supports agriculture through many of these organizations,
and encourages producers to individually explore opportunities offered
at these events.
