Live Technology Displays
See a range of agricultural technologies in person, including tools that support crop monitoring, field data, automation, decision-making and on-farm efficiency. Move beyond presentations and see what these technologies look like in a real farm setting.
Bring Your Crop Tissue Samples!
IFO is excited to offer on-site, real time plant tissue sampling at the event!
The Picketa Lens, or Leaf-Evaluated-Nutrient-System (LENS), is a portable device designed for growers, agronomists, and Ag retailers. It estimates the concentration of 13 key macro and micronutrients in just a few minutes, providing real-time insights to optimize nutrient management.
Crop types supported: Corn, Soybeans, Potatoes, Canola, Wheat
Directions: Bring a tissue sample of the most recently mature leaves (5 leaves for corn, 15 trifoliates for soy, 15 leaflets for canola ).
We will scan the tissue and give results in real-time!
Hear From Innovation Farms
The Innovation Farms team will share what is happening on the farm, how technologies are being tested and what they are learning through real-world use. Get a behind-the-scenes look at how Innovation Farms supports practical agriculture technology.
Message From AIVA
Attendees will hear from AIVA about the importance of agricultural innovation, collaboration and helping growers connect with technologies that support the future of farming.
