Attendees and exhibitors were buzzing with excitement on the first day of the Sunbelt Ag Expo. There’s so much to do, see, and experience in just three short days. 

Goat roping at the Equine Pavilion was a fan-favorite event where attendees learned a new skill, or at least gave it their best shot. Kids, parents, and grandparents alike attempted to throw a rope around a goat in the mini arena. One roper (see image) was a young boy who made four attempts before catching a goat. His mom was ecstatic, and the grin on his face warmed the hearts of spectators. 

Expo is not simply about selling agricultural products. It is about bonding with friends and family, connecting with people from across the Southeast, and learning about the newest and highest-quality agricultural products on the market. 

Sunbelt Ag Expo extends its gratitude to Toucet Roping Productions for providing the Goat Roping event. If you or someone you know is looking for a fun time, make your way over to the Equine Pavilion under the covered barn. Goat Roping will be happening each day of the Expo.
