BOONE, Iowa — Farm Progress is excited to launch a new program, Women in the Field, at its 2024 events. This initiative aims to recognize the contributions of women in agriculture, increase female representation across the Farm Progress brands and foster long-lasting relationships that align with the future of the agriculture industry.

“We believe that empowering women in agriculture is essential for the industry’s growth. The Women in the Field program celebrates their contributions and provides a platform for meaningful conversations. We look forward to growing this program in the future,” said Emily Mauermann, Farm Progress director of marketing and product development. 

The 2024 Farm Progress Show, one of the largest outdoor farm events in the U.S., is the inaugural site of the Women in the Field program. This year’s stage content is in partnership with Case IH.
