The Commodity Classic, following its record-breaking events in Orlando and Houston, is set to make its Denver debut in 2025. Minnesota farmers are gearing up to join the national gathering under the theme "Elevating Excellence in Agriculture."
This major agriculture event will feature over 30 educational sessions, opportunities to network with thousands of farmers nationwide, tours around Denver, and a sprawling trade show.
Rob Schaffer, an Illinois farmer and ASA board member, expressed his anticipation for the event. "This show has only gotten bigger and better in recent years, and we’re excited to visit Denver for the first time in 2025," he said. The Commodity Classic is recognized as a crucial platform for discovering the latest advancements in farming, attracting over 400 companies eager to connect with attendees.
The Minnesota Soybean Growers Association (MSGA) is playing a significant role in the lead-up to the event, with more than 20 farmer leaders set to participate in a Joint State Caucus. This precedes the American Soybean Association’s (ASA) Delegation Session. Additionally, MSGA Directors Raymond Mars and Rebecca Sip are completing the second part of the ASA Corteva Young Leader Program during the convention.
The event also serves as a key meeting point for industry partners, regulatory leaders, and farming colleagues. Directors and staff from the Minnesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council will also attend, engaging with industry stakeholders and participating in national meetings with checkoff groups.
Registration, hotel reservations, email updates, and tour sign-ups for the Commodity Classic are available at CommodityClassic.com. The website also offers a list of exhibiting companies, a map of the trade show floor, and detailed schedules of educational sessions and special events. For ongoing updates, attendees are encouraged to follow Commodity Classic on social media and check the event’s website regularly.
