The Farm Science Review (FSR) staff is hard at work preparing for this year’s show. The annual farm show is set to take place Sept. 19-21 at the Molly Caren Agricultural Center near London. The seeds to a successful FSR were planted, literally, this spring.
“We dedicate 500 of our acres at the Molly Caren Agricultural Center to field demonstrations that take place during Farm Science Review,” said Nick Zachrich, FSR manager. “We are on track for this year’s harvest demonstrations, thanks to the optimal weather that allowed us to plant in a timely manner.”
The well-known FSR field demonstrations are unique to this three-day event.
“We take a lot of pride in offering our visitors the opportunity to witness both corn and soybean harvesting demonstrations,” Zachrich said. “No other farm show offers their attendees that up-close-and-personal opportunity for harvest of both crops.”
Planting started April 15, and the staff wrapped up planting the remaining 1,500 acres in early June, according to Nate Douridas, FSR farm manager.
“A lot of hard work and preparation go into holding this three-day farm show, and with 60 years under our belt, we are proud to be a place where brands and businesses continue to come year after year to showcase their newest technology and innovative products,” Zachrich said.
Farm Science Review offers an extensive range of opportunities to learn and grow for individuals in the agricultural and environmental science industries.
“We thrive on the cutting-edge conversations that attendees take part in every September,” Zachrich said. “This year, we expect a bountiful harvest and top-notch field demos at the show, too.”
