Experts, ag personalities, agribusiness leaders, and high-yield farmers are readying themselves to “take the digital stage” for the 2021 Special Edition of Commodity Classic.
Scheduled to be held from March 2-5, 2021, this year’s digital version of Commodity Classic is to deliver top-quality educational sessions and farmer networking opportunities that are hallmarks of America’s largest farmer-led, farmer-focused educational and agricultural experience.
“Commodity Classic is a one-of-a-kind event, and the farmer-driven efforts between and its event partners have the show positioned for sustained success,”
said John Rozum, AEM Director of Ag Events.
“AEM is proud to be involved with a show that’s uniquely positioned to shape the future of ag and help implement the steps necessary to ensure that future is a bright one for farmers and manufacturers alike.”
Participating sponsors at the 2021 Special Edition of Commodity Classic will showcase new products, services, and innovation through a variety of online presentations, educational sessions, and interactive discussions. Additionally, an impressive lineup of agriculture thought leaders, top-yielding farmers, agribusiness representatives, and Commodity Classic association leaders will be on the schedule.
Established in 1996, Commodity Classic is America’s largest farmer-led, farmer-focused educational and agricultural experience. The show is presented annually by the American Soybean Association, National Corn Growers Association, National Association of Wheat Growers, National Sorghum Producers, and AEM.
In 2019, it was announced AEM would continue its participation in Commodity Classic as a partner and member of the event’s management committee. A year later, AEM reaffirmed its commitment to the show by assisting in surveying both attendees and exhibitors to provide Commodity Classic’s Management Committee with accurate and impactful information to further drive the growth and development of the show.
This year, AEM is pleased to announce it will have the opportunity to present the results of a recently completed study on the environmental benefits of precision agriculture during an education session at the 2021 Special Edition of Commodity Classic. The study, which is supported by the American Soybean Association, CropLife America, and National Corn Growers Association, quantifies how widely available precision ag technology used in agriculture improves environmental stewardship while providing an economic return for farmers.
The registration fee for the 2021 Special Edition of Commodity Classic has waived for the first 5,000 farmers thanks to the generous support of sponsors. All other registrants and farmers after the first 5,000 will be charged $20. The registration covers all online educational sessions and events, as well as access to all archived sessions through April 30, 2021.
The 2022 Commodity Classic is scheduled to be held in New Orleans from March 10-12, 2022.
