The Nebraska On-Farm Research Network's Annual Results Updates are this February! Come hear from growers who conducted on-farm research as they share their results from the 2017 growing season. You will obtain valuable crop production-related information from over 80 on-farm research projects conducted on Nebraska farms by Nebraska farmers in partnership with University of Nebraska faculty. These research projects cover products, practices, and new technologies that impact farm productivity and profitability.

Research projects to be discussed will include: cover crops, planting populations, row spacing, seed treatments, starter fertilizer, multi-hybrid planting uses, nitrogen stabilizers, and sidedress nitrogen management technologies including variable-rate drone and sensor based management.

Approval has been sought for Certified Crop Adviser CEU credits and is pending approval. Attendees will receive a complementary copy of the 2017 growing season results book.

We hope to see you there!
