TIFTON — The Georgia Peanut Commission announced plans for the 48th annual Georgia Peanut Farm Show and Convention, to be held 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Jan. 16 at the University of Georgia Tifton Campus Conference Center in Tifton. The one-day show is free and open to all farmers and industry representatives to attend. 

Attendees will have the opportunity to visit with nearly 100 agribusinesses and organizations in the peanut and agricultural industry, the commission said in a press releaser. Farmers will be able to earn private and commercial pesticide applicator certification, as well as learn about cutting-edge research and developments during the University of Georgia Peanut Production Seminar and industry-wide sponsored Peanut Seed Seminar.

Farm Show chairman Rodney Dawson is looking forward to the 2025 show. 

“I encourage farmers to attend this one-day show in Tifton,” Dawson says. “The knowledge they will gain from industry representatives and seminars is an investment in the future of their farm.”

The Georgia Peanut Commission, in cooperation with OneBlood, will host a blood drive from 9:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. during the show. At the close, there will be nearly $10,000 in door prizes presented to farmers, as well as a grand door prize, vendor products, certificates and equipment.
