Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show to hold Dairy Day Conference and Expo

One of Tradeshow Week's 50 Fastest Growing Shows in North America, the Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show, expands in 2008 to include a brand new Dairy Producers Conference and Expo held Dec. 4 in conjunction with the 2008 show. The Dairy Producers Conference & Expo will be held in the Grand Plaza room at the Amarillo Civic Center from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

With Texas quickly becoming one of the premier states for dairy production and operations, the Dairy Producers Conference & Expo seeks to support this growing market in Texas and in the surrounding four-state region.

This highly anticipated conference and expo will feature morning and afternoon seminars appealing to owner/operators and managers. Table top exhibit spaces will feature the latest innovations in dairy products and services.

Seminars begin at 9:30 a.m., with, "Dairy Consortium Update." followed at 10:15 a.m., with "Dairy Footbaths and Copper Toxicity in Soil." Wrap up the morning seminar schedule with "Survey of Labor Immigration Issues" at 10:45 a.m. The afternoon kicks off with "Management of Dairy Rations with High Feed Costs" at 1 p.m. At 1:45 p.m., attend "Confined Livestock Operations followed by Strategies to Improve Reproduction Performance". Conference proceeding handouts will be available in both English and Spanish, courtesy of AgriLife Extension. Attendees will also have multiple opportunities throughout the day to visit with Dairy Day exhibitors. To register for the seminars or to become an exhibitor, call 800-827-8007.

The Amarillo Farm & Ranch Show will include more than 500 companies displaying the latest agricultural products and services for area farmers and ranchers and dairymen. The show will be held Dec. 2 to 4 at the Civic Center in Amarillo, Texas with the Dairy Day Conference & Expo held Dec. 4. Admission is $2 with 100 percent donated back to the FFA.

The show is open Dec. 2 and 3 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Dec. 4 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Don 't miss either one of these fast growing show segments, as they promise to be immensely informative for exhibitors and attendees alike.
