Field Crops Virtual Breakfast Series kicks off 2021 growing season beginning April 1
March 15, 2021
This free weekly series for farmers and agribusinesses focuses on field crop pest and crop management topics during the growing season.
Each year, farmers have a sense of anticipation, excitement, joy, anxiety and relief as they prepare for the new growing season. Farming is a profession that requires a certain amount of faith concerning things beyond their control such as weather, potential pests and crop prices. To address potential issues and concerns during the growing season, Michigan State University Extension will host the free Field Crops Virtual Breakfast Series beginning Thursday, April 1, through Sept. 23, 2021, from 7-7:30 a.m. via Zoom. This weekly webinar meeting will be the fourth year that farmers, agribusiness personnel and others interested in agriculture can interact with MSU Extension specialists and educators to get answers for their questions.
