World Ag Expo is held in Tulare, California, the second week of February each year. The show is the world's largest agricultural exposition, with 2.6 million square feet of exhibit space, over 1600 exhibitors, and more than 100,000 attendees from over 67 countries.
Tulare is about 45-50 miles north of Bakersfield up the 99 highway.
This is a shot of one of many dairies in the San Joaquin Valley.
California is the leading dairy state in the nation with approximately 1.78 million dairy cows on 1,960 licensed dairies, producing 21.4% of the nations milk supply. California dairies produced 38.8 billion pounds of milk in 2006. Wisconsin is a distant second at 23.3 billion pounds of milk. In the first six months of 2007, California dairies produced more than 20 billion pounds of milk.
This is a shot of flags from some of the countries that are represented at the show.
Here is Jim getting a demonstration of a "BIJU" whatever the heck that is?
No, this is not a ride! It is a tree shaper. It tops trees and shapes them .
There is the old and the new.
