Ag in Motion 2026

In just a few days, Langham, Saskatchewan will once again play host to Ag in Motion, Western Canada’s largest outdoor farm expo and one of the premier agricultural events in the country. Bringing together farmers, industry leaders and innovators from across Canada and around the world, Ag in Motion showcases the latest advancements in agricultural technology, equipment and on-farm solutions—all just 15 minutes northwest of Saskatoon.

Whether you’re looking to discuss grain marketing, regenerative farming, precision application technology or innovative crop input solutions, we’d love to meet you. Stop by, say hello, and see how we’re helping producers tackle today’s challenges while preparing for tomorrow’s opportunities.

Tickets available here: Tix – Ticket Sales – Event Details

WEED-IT

Curious about how spot spraying can reduce input costs while maintaining effective weed control? Make sure to visit the WEED-IT Booth (#724) at this year’s Ag in Motion and experience the technology firsthand with a live demonstration ride-along.

Our team has compiled extensive field trial data showcasing the agronomic and economic benefits of integrating spot spray technology into your operation. Whether your goal is reducing herbicide use, lowering application costs, or improving spraying efficiency, we’d be happy to walk you through the results and answer your questions.

Take a look through the trial data below before the show, then stop by Booth 724 to see the system in action and discuss how it could fit your farm. We look forward to seeing you at Ag in Motion!

Protect Your Crop & Your Market Access.

Every spray application matters. To help ensure your grain meets Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) requirements in domestic and export markets, always read and follow the product label, including application rates, crop staging, pre-harvest intervals, tank-mix directions and all other label requirements. Good stewardship, accurate record keeping and proper application timing are essential for maintaining market access and protecting the reputation of Canadian grain. Before every application, visit Keep it Clean at www.keepitclean.ca for the latest best management practices and stewardship resources.

Johnstons Regenerative

We we’re back on the road this week, spending time in fields across the Prairies and seeing firsthand how this year’s crops are progressing. Every field has its own story, We’re digging roots, evaluating nodulation, assessing plant health and stand establishment, comparing conventional and regenerative management systems, and looking closely at how different agronomic decisions are performing under this season’s unique conditions.

The cool, wet start to the year has created challenges across many regions, making field scouting more important than ever. There’s no substitute for putting boots on the ground. The crop will always tell you more than a calendar or a forecast, and those observations help guide the right management decisions at the right time.

One of the best parts of these visits is the opportunity to learn alongside growers. Every conversation, every field, and every season adds another piece to the puzzle as we continue building practical knowledge that improves crop performance, strengthens soil health, and supports long-term farm profitability.
