The Society also plans to celebrate its 200th adoption at the Show. A number of industry organizations and associations will be showcasing their eco -friendly products and technology as part of the Eco Expo with its focus on sustainable, alternative agriculture, . "The Eco Expo has a real industry focus this year," says Shelley Hand, co-ordinator of the Expo."For producers interested in knowing about alternative agriculture, from organic fertilizers to renewable energy sources, this will be the place to check it out." The Expo features a diverse range of exhibitors, including organic food products and certification, bio fuels, solar and wind energy and much more. Various hemp associations will also be promoting the wide range of uses for this resilient crop. Brenda Daniel, a speaker on the Show's Family Program lineup, will be talking about home remedies that can be found in your backyard. Daniel will also be exhibiting in the Eco Expo, to promote her "From the Meadow" natural healing products. The well-managed farm woodlot is a valuable resource and the Woodlot Expo provides an ideal opportunity for woodlot owners to learn from the experts. Bruce Kropf, co-ordinator of the Woodlot Expo, says professional foresters will be on hand at the Show to assist landowners with management and marketing decisions. "A healthy woodlot is more than an environmental resource, it can be an important source of farm income," says Kropf. Throughout each day there will be demonstrations of wood splitters, saw mills and a wood processor that takes logs to firewood in one operation. Kropf expects at least 10 of the major suppliers of forestry equipment will demonstrate products designed for the farm woodlot, from chain saws to safety harnesses. Again for 2003, the Resource Managers Tent will be the place to go if you are looking for information on tree planting, nursery stock or HIIRONFIIEL INJECT/1/N PAT & HEATHER DEJONG Ph: 519-482-7971 1-800-320-0666 Web: huronfuelinjection.com Highway #4 South • CLINTON "FUEL INJECTION SPECIALISTS" Diesel Fuel Pumps & Injectors Gasoline Injectors Turbo Chargers Starters & Alternators g "It's the nicest Corn Silage I've ever fed!" so says g Brad Carson of Carson Farms & Auction Services Listowel, Ontario FA After 4 crop years of applying Silo Guard to over 3000 tonnes of 1 I 4 I 1 I 1 I 1 I 1 / 1 / 1 I I I I I Corn Silage in bunkers, our experience in comparing treated to untreated silage > The advantages go to Silo Guard! » This sample from our 2001 silage crop tested this way> • Less heating after packing • For longer 'Bunk Lite (freshness) • Better green colour • Less dark waste • More dry matter saved SILO GUARD is available from local I.S.F.
