  • New to the lineup this year is the Field Diagnostic Clinic, which will be held the day before the Crop Management Clinic.
  • The Crop Management Clinic will only be one day instead of two.
  • Managing Palmer amaranth is a new workshop in August. Presenters include: Bob Hartzler, Meaghan Anderson, and Joe Kooiker.
