SUMMARY:

• It’s been a challenging year, to say the least
• Underhill is a producer too, so the XPO relates to what’s going on, on the farm
• They are putting their best foot forward and trying to create the most educational and interactive experience that you can
• Looking at fall of 2022 for Canadian Poultry XPO
• In terms of the future, will parts of the virtual conference stay? Underhill says absolutely
• The future could be more of a hybrid model. Value added
• They wanted the virtual show to look as much like the live show as possible, and keep it personable
• There will be pent up demand for shows!
• Overall health of the industry is exceptional, especially when you look at the Canadian dairy industry from a global perspective
• Barns are still being built, robots are still being used, farms are still in the black
• Dairy farmers especially already experience a lot of isolation
• The technology side of the industry is amazing. It is updating and changing every single year
• More than just robotics in some of these technologies
• The data components in these robots are incredible. “We know more about our cows than we ever have in the past”
• The next couple of decades is going to be really exciting
• Canadian Dairy is and will continue to be very competitive on the international stage
• We need to protect our supply management system
• Dairy industries across the world are facing some of the same issues we are. It helps to talk and work together. Let’s help each other.
