You're invited to join us for a Cover Crop Breeding Field Walk!
The Cover Crop Breeding Network breeds fall-sown cover crops for traits like fall emergence, winter survival, spring vigor, high biomass, hard seed, and non-shattering pods
Join us to walk the trial fields, talk about what we're seeing (and not seeing), hear about past years' results, and learn about CCB lines approaching commercialization.
Advanced line trials - Crimson clover, hairy vetch, winter pea, and winter canola
Planting date trials - Cereal rye and winter pea
Breeding nurseries - Cereal rye and winter pea (across the road & optional!)
This event brings together livestock farmers and the community to learn about local bulk meat sales and to taste recipes created for NYS schools, featuring meats from local farms. We are currently looking for farmers to participate in the event!
We will start our Value-Added Dairy Processing discussion group series with a guest speaker from Farm Credit East. On May 2nd at noon, Jess May will join us to discuss the lender's point of view for on-farm processing and diversification. This is free to join and will be recorded.
No announcements at this time.
