The 2016 Orr Center field day will be held on Wednesday, July 20, beginning with sign-in and refreshments at 8:00 AM. The format will be new this year, with three UI Extension specialists making presentations in indoor classrooms:
- Weed scientist Aaron Hager will talk about weed management
- Agronomist Emerson Nafziger will discuss crop conditions and nitrogen management
- Ag economist Gary Schnitkey will discuss crop income projections
Indoor sessions will be followed by a short wagon tour to look at crop conditions and some of the research trials underway at the Center. The tour should be finished by 11:00 AM. Continuing education units will be available for Certified Crop Advisors.
