Covid-19 Cancels More Farm Shows

Organizers for the Red Deer Agri-Trade Show had been hoping to go ahead with this year's event in November, but have made the decision to cancel the show.
 
David Fiddler, Agri-Trade Expo Show Manager says this has been a difficult decision.
 
"We worked closely with all stakeholders, including Red Deer & District Chamber of Commerce and Westerner Park, to consider all factors.  With travel policies impeding show exhibitors and attendance, we felt that Agri-Trade would not be the show we know it has been since 1984."
 
Meantime, organizers for the 2021 CropSphere Conference in Saskatoon have announced the cancellation of their event.
 
The host organizations deciding to hold a one day virtual conference on January 12th.
