More Information
Educators and researchers from the University of Pennsylvania’s New Bolton Center, Delaware Valley College, and Penn State will review the current research being done on behalf of corn and soybean farmers and their number one customer for soy meal, animal agriculture. Some key topics on the agenda this year will be managing soybean and corn diseases, with Dr. Gary Bergstrom from Cornell and coping with low grain prices in crop management. Other key topics will be Grain Drying and Storage tactics and the Fundamentals of Identity Preserved Grain Production. This should be a great meeting to network with other grain crop producers and crop advisors in our state.
