TOPEKA, Kan. — This summer, the Kansas Agricultural Retailers Association and Kansas State University will partner to host an agronomic educational field day. The event is scheduled for July 14-15 at K-State’s agronomy field and facilities.
Highlight items for this year’s program include: insects and diseases, crop growth and development, weed identification, water quality, and soil fertility.
This is an annual program that consistently provides relevant and current trend information, organizers said.
"We feel that the KSU Field Day that KARA sponsors is the best two-day event of the year for those in the ag input and consulting business," said Chuck Kuntz from Harveyville Seed. "It combines back-to-basic information with the latest in technology and crop diagnostics in a hands-on approach. We send employees every year and I have personally attended several times. We have never been disappointed with the time and money invested."
Agricultural retailers across the state are encouraged to attend and bring an interested producer with them. Registration information is available on the KARA Web site: www.ksagretailers.org or by calling 785-234-0463.
