Sheldon, Iowa — An annual meeting for farmers is coming up in Sheldon once again.
Iowa State University Extension and Outreach specialists tell us the 2023 Crop Advantage meetings will give producers a solid foundation of current research-based crop production information to help make smart, informed decisions for their farming operation.
They say the meetings are an opportunity for farmers and crop advisers to hear current research and crop production information. Experts will travel to 14 locations around Iowa from Jan. 3-26, providing updated management options and recommendations on crop production issues facing Iowa growers.
Northwest Iowa Extension agronomist Leah Ten Napel tells us about the meetings coming up in this area. (AGAIN, SHELDON MEETING IS CANCELED)
They tell us meetings include continuing education credits for Certified Crop Advisers and pesticide applicator recertification. All sites offer private pesticide applicator continuing instruction which is included in the registration fee.
