Dairy is the focus of expansion at 2008 World Ag Expo

With more than 500 exhibit spaces already dedicated to dairy production, the expansion will add up to 130 new dairy exhibits. The majority of the new exhibit space will be in the Dairy Technology Center, presented by Bella Health Systems; a 140x160-foot indoor canvas covered structure.  The remaining space will be devoted to outdoor dairy related exhibits.

The Dairy Technology Center, just south of the Farm Credit Dairy Center, will increase the overall Expo exhibit space to 2.6 million square feet. The expansion comes in response to long time demand from exhibitors and attendees for more exhibit space related to dairy production.

Also housed in the Dairy Technology Center, will be the TOP FIVE New Dairy Products.  Selected from a pool of exhibitor applications, these products will be showcased in the Center and represent the latest and most innovative technology in dairy production.

Companies interested in securing a space in the new venue should e-mail Maria Rising, exhibit coordinator, at maria@farmshow.org.  For more information on the TOP FIVE New Dairy Products selection please contact Lisa Garcia, show operations manager, at lisa@farmshow.org.  You may also fill out the nomination form on this website.  Nomination forms are due September 7, 2007.
