Friday, September 13 brought growers, students and researchers to the Kearney Ag Center to obtain CEU's and learn about forage related research projects at the station as well as off the station in adjacent counties. The diligent and enthusiastic team of UC Cooperative Extension specialists presented on a wide range of topics relevant to forage crops grown in the San Joaquin Valley. In the field, Jackie Atim, abiotic stress specialist, discussed her projects in sorghum; alfalfa specialist Dan Putnam discussed the managed aquifer recharge (MAR) trials held at Kearney; and weed specialist Jorge Angeles demonstrated calibration techniques for spray equipment. Other informative presentations included information on garbanzo variety trials by Michelle Leinfelder-Miles and new data on insecticide resistance in alfalfa weevil by Ian Grettenberger. There was wide host of topics and attendees left well informed and a few CEU's richer.
