The population of Lincoln, Nebraska will surge considerably next week as thousands of people from across the region swarm the state’s capital for the 2013 Nebraska Power Farming Show, where they will gawk at big iron and futuristic gadgets from the top agricultural companies in the world.

Growers and ranchers from states like Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri and Kansas will rub shoulders with those from Nebraska at the Lancaster Event Center on December 10-12, as they flow between the booths of the 1,000-plus ag-related exhibitors who will be presenting at the nation’s second largest indoor farm show.

That one location is of course Lincoln. Those traveling from out of state won’t have any trouble finding the show once they arrive safely in town since the Lancaster Event Center is conveniently located right off of Interstate-80. Nearby visitors will find comfortable lodging, memorable dining experiences, and other fun activities for people of all ages. That is, of course, when they aren’t busy enjoying the excitement of the 2013 Nebraska Power Farming Show, where parking, admission and awesome ag sights are all free to the public.
