“Commodity Classic is created by farmers, for farmers,” said Wade Cowan, a Texas soybean farmer and co-chair of the 2019 Commodity Classic. “That farmer focus makes Commodity Classic unique—and it comes through loud and clear in every experience.  Farmers walk away with new insights, new ideas, new contacts and a renewed passion for agriculture that they simply cannot get at any other agricultural event—and that’s what keeps them coming back year after year.”

Established in 1996, Commodity Classic is unlike any other agriculture event, featuring a robust schedule of educational sessions, a huge trade show featuring the latest technology, equipment and innovation, top-notch entertainment, inspiring speakers, unique optional tours and the opportunity to network with thousands of farmers from across the nation.

Commodity Classic is presented annually by the American Soybean Association, National Corn Growers Association, National Association of Wheat Growers, National Sorghum Producers and the Association of Equipment Manufacturers.
