2024-12-06 08:00 - 17:00 | Holiday Inn Express, 1103 N Splitrock Blvd, Brandon, South Dakota, 57005

Forages are an unsung hero in the Midwest and good production practices are often overlooked. This year, we plan to host an educational session beginning with a noon meal. The session will host two keynote speakers focusing on understanding alfalfa forage quality (Dr. Dan Putnam, professor emeritus with UC-Davis Extension), and liquid manure applications (Glen Arnold, professor with Ohio State University Extension). Other topics such as forage/range grazing practices, relay cropping, and business management will be covered. The day will conclude with a business meeting.
