Manitoba Ag Days Looking For Farmer Votes

Voting is now open for the Manitoba Ag Days Farmer's Choice Grand Prize Champion in the Innovation Showcase.
 
Kristen Phillips is the General Manager for Manitoba Ag Days.
 
"We really wanted to make sure farmers were involved without a live show, we wanted a way to pull them in," she said. "We decided to move forward with a Farmer's Choice Grand Prize, where the farmers get to vote for their Farmer's Choice Champion and ultimately the exhibitor will get $10,000."
 
There are seven finalists in the competition.
 
 
The winner will be announced January 25th.
 
A webinar showcasing each of the finalists is taking place January 14th.

In this CEOs of the Industry – International Edition, we sit down with Michael Agerley, Partner at IQinAbox, to explore how data is reshaping the future of pig production.

After more than 20 years as a veterinarian, Michael shares his unique perspective on the shift from hands-on animal care to data-driven decision making across the pork value chain.

We dive into:

• How better data is improving real on-farm decisions

• The biggest opportunities still untapped in pig production

• How Europe is leading (and where it’s still lagging) in tech adoption

• The role of AI and smart systems in the next 5–10 years

• Why trust, leadership, and practical application matter more than ever

This conversation bridges veterinary insight, technology, and real-world farming, offering a clear look at where the industry is headed—and what it will take to get there.
