Farmers, manufacturers and people with an interest in agriculture will come together at the Tradex Exhibition Centre located at the Abbotsford Airport to take in the 17^th annual Pacific Agriculture Show.

Since its inception in 1998, the show will feature over 250 vendors including Committed Ag Supply, DuPont Canada, Handlers Equipment Ltd., and Kuhn North America in an effort to supply the visitors with the latest and newest innovations in equipment and technology to improve the efficiency of their farming operations.

The Lower Mainland Horticulture Improvement Association (LMHIA) will provide a Grower’s Short Course where they’ll discuss issues involved with fruits and vegetables, pesticides, and agricultural economics.

There will also be a two-day Agri-Energy & Waste Management forum. Starting on January 30^th, visitors will be able to educate themselves on how to manage waste, reduce cost, and diversify income. They’ll also be able to visit BC’s newest anaerobic digester.

Anaerobic digesters are used to break down biodegradable material to produce things like natural gas or transportation fuels.

Other topics covered will include environmental farm plans, nutrient and waste management, and pyrolysis opportunities and challenges.

Video: Dream Projects Made Real | BX Summer Contest Winner Stories

Three women. Three properties. Three summers that changed everything.

Meet the 2025 Kubota BX Summer Contest winners — and watch what happened when their biggest plans finally had the power to match them.

Akesh transformed her 9.8-acre property in just 3 months — clearing a historic barn, building a cottage garden, and growing vegetable beds for her family. Kathleen rebuilt her yard from the ground up after the 2023 wildfires devastated her property — creating a space where her children could play and grow again. Teresa reclaimed her family's 97-acre Ontario farm — moving topsoil, restoring fields, and honouring her mother's memory one season at a time.

Three dream projects. Three stories of vision, resilience, and hard work. One unforgettable summer with a Kubota BX.

"The BX made everything happen so quick." — Akesh "I feel like I can make a huge difference." — Kathleen "It's a dream come true. The answer to my prayers." — Teresa
