Agronomy school planned for local farmers

| December 18, 2015

COSHOCTON – Area farmers are encouraged to attend a local agronomy school to learn about different aspects of growing soybeans, corn and other commercial agricultural crops. OSU Extension professionals will lead the school which will be on Wednesday, Jan. 27 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Conesville United Methodist Church. Some of the topics of discussion will include:

  • Agronomic Pathogens in Eastern Ohio: Threats and Bets
  • Insect Management in Corn and Soybean
  • Do You Really Need to Fertilize Every Year?
  • Top Ten Ways to Improve Yield Without Breaking the Bank
  • And more!

Experts from across the state will be at the school to share their expertise – so don’t miss out on this opportunity.

Due to a grant through the Ohio Soybean Council, registration is only $30 and will include a light breakfast, hot lunch, and a copy of the 2016 Weed Control Guide. Certified Crop Advisory credits are also available.

To register for 2016 Agronomy School, stop by the Coshocton County Extension office and complete a registration form or download a form at coshocton.osu.edu. If you have questions about the program, contact Emily Adams at 740-622-2265.
