Ilosuna · CC BY 1.0Chaco Pioneers Expo
Farm technology, machinery demonstrations and training sessions in the productive heart of the Central Chaco.
What it is
Expo Pioneros is the Chaco’s technical agribusiness fair: static displays of technology, supplies and services, live demonstrations of farm and ranch machinery, and talks on herd management, precision agriculture, animal nutrition and sustainability. It’s more professional than festive, and useful for understanding how the colonies transformed the Central Chaco. Late May brings pleasant temperatures to the region.
What to see and do
- Live machinery demonstrations
- Technical talks
- Mennonite colonies of Filadelfia and Loma Plata
