SDSU Extension is offering in-person agronomy clinics this winter. Each location will have content that is customized to growers and agribusiness professionals in that area.
“As growers across the state deal with high input prices and volatile markets, our experts have prepared regionally relevant information for this program that can help producers make more-informed decisions for the upcoming growing season,” said Alexander “Sandy” Smart, SDSU Extension Agriculture and Natural Resources Senior Program Leader.
Each road show will begin at 10am local time and will conclude at 2pm Lunch will be served at each location, and continuing education credits (CEUs) will be available for Certified Crop Advisers.
The registration fee is $15, and participants must pre-register on the SDSU Extension events page at extension.sdstate.edu to sign up for each event. For more information, contact Laura Edwards, SDSU Extension State Climatologist at Laura.Edwards@sdstate.edu or (605) 626-2870.
