Visitors to the 56th annual Farm Science Review, the premier outdoor agricultural education and industry trade show, will walk away with advice they can use to improve their farm operation, large or small. Ohio Farm Bureau will once again be at the review, at the corner of Beef St. and Friday Ave.

The first 150 members to visit the Farm Bureau building each day at Farm Science Review and show their member ID card will receive a special Farm Bureau car magnet.

In addition, anyone who renews or purchases a new membership at Farm Science Review will receive a custom, one-of-a-kind Ohio Farm Bureau hitch pin, while supplies last. Memberships must be renewed or purchased on site at the event, and there is a limit of one hitch pin per membership.

The Review exhibit area is now 20 acres larger, and improvements have been made so visitors can better access parking as well as the exhibits and other offerings at the Molly Caren Agricultural Center in London. Farm Science Review is sponsored by the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences (CFAES) at The Ohio State University.

One improvement involves relocating the “Ride and Drives,” where attendees can test drive farm equipment and vehicles from participating exhibitors. The new location puts these immediately inside the east gates near the Ohio State University Extension Agronomic Crops Team display and the antique tractor clubs. OSU Extension is the outreach arm of CFAES.

Visitors to the annual event are able to peruse 4,000 product lines and over 700 commercial and educational exhibits as well as engage in workshops, presentations and demonstrations delivered by CFAES experts.

Educators, specialists and faculty from CFAES will provide research-based information on issues from pest management to water quality. Field demonstrations will feature the most current technology and agricultural techniques.

Tickets to the event are available online. The Farm Science Review digital directory of exhibitors is also available.

Tickets are $7 online, at OSU Extension county offices and participating agribusinesses, and $10 at the gate. Children ages 5 and under are free. Details on event hours, buying tickets online and more are on the Review’s website at fsr.osu.edu.
