Penn State’s Ag Progress Days Features Commercial Exhibits, Field Demos

The latest in farming products, services, equipment and technology will be on full display during this year’s Ag Progress Days.

The agricultural expo, hosted by Penn State’s College of Agricultural Sciences, will take place Aug. 12-14 at the Russell E. Larson Agricultural Research Center at Rock Springs, Centre County.

Show Manager Jesse Darlington said this year’s expo is shaping up to be one of the best, featuring hundreds of commercial and educational exhibits, as well as various field demonstrations and workshops — all designed to help producers maintain and enhance productivity, sustainability and profitability.

“Ag Progress Days is all about celebrating how far agriculture has come and where it’s headed,” said Jesse Darlington, show manager. “It’s a chance for folks to see how Penn State’s research and extension work is helping to create real, positive change. We’re thankful for the support we get from farmers, ag professionals and our local communities.”
