Ag
PhD's 2008 Workshops
You’ve
seen Jim Bower, internationally respected grain marketing
advisor, on AgDay, MSNBC, and NBC. Now, he’s coming
to our area to tell you what’s happening in the grain
markets, and how you can profit.
Brian
and Darren Hefty are agronomists and Certified Crop Advisors
who farm, too. They’ve hosted Ag PhD TV for 10 years.
Whether you’re a customer of Hefty Seed Company or
not, you’re invited to join them for free to learn
more in-depth information about agronomy, how to raise
better crops, and most importantly, how to increase profit
on your farm. Topics for the day will include:
FERTILITY
- How to read a soil test and why tissue analysis is important.
When you
leave, you will know more than most fertilizer “experts.”
NEW
CHEMICALS – There are more new products in 2008
than we’ve seen in many years. Learn what to use
and what NOT to use.
FUNGICIDES
– Learn how to make your fungicides work better in
wheat, soybeans, corn, and other crops. Plus, we’ll
tell you when fungicides pay, but more importantly, when
they don’t.
HERBICIDE
RECOMMENDATIONS – Find out not only which herbicides
work best, but which ones work best at the lowest cost
to you.
ON-FARM
TRIALS – We’ll share our data from our 2400-acre
research farm.
RETURN
ON INVESTMENT – Isn’t this what it’s
all about?
