2022 Agronomic Field Crop Tours

Towards the end of the growing season, agriculture research stations across the U.S. invite stakeholders. e.g., Certified Crop Advisors, agriculture industry professionals, farmers, and fellow Cooperative Extension colleagues from neighboring states to tour research plots.  

On August 10, 2022 the Carvel Center hosted two separate tours: an agronomic field crop tour (5 stops) and a
vegetable and fruit crop tour (4 stops). 
 

We invite you to view the new video presentation organized by tour stops within the two tour options. Below each video are resources provided by the presenter.  Click here for additional photos.
