Several new events will be introduced this year, including an "Ag Futures Pavilion" in partnership with farmer training workshops provider Partners in Ag.
The upgraded pavilion will be the site of a series of short presentations from industry experts on farm viability, sustainability and profitability.
For a second consecutive year, the gates at the Wimmera Events Centre will stay open until 7pm on Tuesday, in an initiative known as the Twilight Ag Expo. You can head through the gates for free from 3pm.
And in another first, Wimmera sports clubs will compete to pull a 10-12 tonne tractor in a tractor pull time trial on Tuesday night.
On Thursday the inaugural "Field Days Dealers Machinery and Equipment Auction" will be held, which it is hoped will draw in people to the last day.
A stunt show is also new to field days in 2020. Across all three days, riders from all4FMX will perform three shows on ATV stunt bikes and bicycle motocross bikes.
Opening times
Tuesday March 3: 9.30am - 7.00pm
Wednesday March 4: 8.30am - 5.00pm
