Peanut growers in the tri-states area will have the opportunity to see the latest advances in peanut planting, harvesting and other related equipment at the Alabama/Florida Peanut Trade Show, which will be held at the Peanut Festival Fairgrounds in Dothan, AL, on Thursday February 9.

The Trade Show is sponsored by the Alabama Peanut Producers Association and the Florida Peanut Producers Association. More than 60 exhibitors will attend the Trade Show to display their products, visit with farmers and offer information.

We invite all farmers to attend.”

The Trade Show opens at 8:30 AM CST. A catered lunch will be provided with a production meeting and seed seminar following. For more information please contact the FPPA office at (850)526-2590.
