Crops Day is a producer led annual event that has been running since the very beginning of GBFW in 1966! Targeted to the growers of crops, the purpose of Crops Day is to provide an opportunity for producers to meet and be educated on the latest technology, discuss pertinent issues, learn about the latest techniques and monitoring. Topics include cropping practices of corn, forages, and other field crops. Oranizers also hope that producers can implement at least two ideas in their operations.

Feature Speakers: Dr. Lee Briese, Agronomist, Centrol Ag Consulting, & Matthew Pot, Economic Consultant & author of the "Grain Perspectives" commentary & analysis
