Ag-Chem Equipment Co. to Showcase New Products at Indiana FarmFest; Leading Manufacturer to Spotlight Top Products and New Technologies.

TIPTON, Ind. -- Indiana FarmFest, the event dedicated to all of Indiana's producers, announced today that Ag-Chem Equipment Co., Inc., an industry-leading manufacturer of fertilizing equipment will exhibit at the inaugural event in Tipton, Indiana, September 13-15, 2005. Indiana FarmFest will include over 140 acres of exhibits, livestock and field demonstrations. An estimated 350 companies will display their products.

"We are extremely excited to have Ag-Chem as one of our exhibitors at our debut event," says Todd Benz, Group Show Director. "They are a respected company with technologically-advanced products which will complement our event nicely."

Ag-Chem Equipment Co., Inc. manufactures and distributes off-road equipment. Their products are primarily used in fertilizing agricultural crops, the application of crop protection chemicals to crops, and to a lesser extent, industrial waste treatment applications and other industrial uses. Ag-Chem manufactures equipment for use both prior to planting crops and after crops emerge from the ground. The company operates 17 parts and service centers across the United States and Canada with an intention to provide customers a high level of service and responsiveness, thereby averting critical delays during periods of peak usage. Ag-Chem manufactures and markets its products under the brand names of "Terra-Gator," "Big Wheels," and "Easy Rider" and "Magnum."

"Ag-Chem is looking forward to the upcoming Indiana Farm Fest," says John Arden, Area Sales Manager for Ag-Chem. "We will be exhibiting several of our row crop and full flotation units and attendees will be able to experience many of our new models that are raising the bar of performance in the application industry. Of special interest will be that we will have a large display, adjacent to a 5-acre private demonstration area. This will provide the convenience of 'ride and drive' without a long walk. We are pleased to be part of the showcase providing new technology to the field of agriculture."

Ag-Chem's private exhibit/demonstration area will be one of four such areas on the exhibit field. Ag-Chem will demonstrate their products on two of these areas with 5 acres devoted to product demonstrations for their customers. This exhibit and demonstration combination allows attendees to experience and interact with the product they are interested in right in the exhibitor's booth, without having to go to a general demonstration area and then return back to the company to ask more questions.

Ag Chem will be joined by other industry-leading exhibitors including Beck's Hybrids, Dan Young GM Center, Dekalb/Asgrow, Pioneer Hi-Breed International Inc., Reynold's Farm Equipment Inc. (John Deere), Tipton Implement (Case IH), and many more.

Indiana Farm Fest will be held September 13-15, 2005, at the Tipton County Fairgrounds in Tipton, Indiana. Adult admission to the show is $5. Children 18 and under are free. The three day event includes field demonstrations, private demonstration areas, livestock handling and horse training demos, educational seminars, entertainment, a toy and craft tent, and more.
