If you’ve been thinking about travelling to Canada and looking at Canadian genetics, 2016 is a great year to do it! Farmfair International is on again from 9 – 13 November in Edmonton and there are great incentives being offered to international breeders who would like to attend.
Farmfair features a range of shows and sales with 16 purebred beef breeds and commercial cattle on display, culminating in the spectacular Supreme Show of Champions. Farmfair is hosting the national Shorthorn, Simmental shows as well as the Western Canadian National Hereford show. As well from genetics and livestock to the latest in equipment, Farmfair is a one-stop marketplace for the global livestock industry.
Farmfair International (FFI) offers an Inbound Buyer Program to assist international breeders with their travel and attendance at the show. Program participants are eligible for reimbursement of travel expenses up to $1500CAD. Participants are provided with a customised itinerary for their stay including Show events, the International Reception, and farm and industry tours. In addition, all International Guests receive various benefits including: complimentary show admission, International AgBusiness Centre Membership, reduced hotel rates at FFI Host Hotels, invitations to special events, and pre and post show tour support.
