The 2026 plots offer a hands-on look at how crops respond to today’s agronomic challenges. Farmers and agronomists can walk the rows, examine plant performance and across a wide range of crops grown under different conditions and management strategies, and speak with crop experts on the spot.
Four reasons to visit the farm show crop plots
Many crops, one place
With a wide variety of Ontario crops growing side-by-side, you can compare growth patterns, disease resistance, yield potential and other traits that that matter on your farm – all in one place.
Trends in the field

Farmers can evaluate crops, see solutions to Ontario’s trending crop challenges and find out about new products. Farmers get direct input on crop performance and see the influence of specific conditions.
Ask questions, get answers

Crop representatives, agronomists and researchers from a variety of companies can answer your questions right at the show. It’s the perfect place to have one-on-one discussions about new crops, field test results, agronomy and market developments.
Hang out with neighbours

We hear this a lot: it’s nice to get off the farm for a few days to talk to other farmers and industry folks you don’t get to see much face-to-face. Hang out, have some laughs and exchange ideas.
