For nearly 50 years, the Ag Expo has given regional growers an opportunity to take a break from their farm work.
But the ag event, typically held on the last Wednesday in January at the Owensboro Convention Center, has been canceled for 2021 because of the ongoing COVID-19 concerns.
âWe communicated with our leadership, our booth sponsors and obviously the Convention Center,â said Clint Hardy, Daviess County ag agent whoâs part of the Ag Expoâs planning committee. âGiven the situation weâre in, we thought it would be in the best interest for safety to set a year out.â
This wouldâve been the 47th annual Ag Expo.
