Southwest New York Dairy, Livestock & Field Crops Program


NYCO (NY Certified Organic) Meeting

January 9, 2018



The  January 9
Crop Rotations topic was requested by a number of farmers attending the 2017 NYCO meetings. The program will cover how farmers select the rotations that fit the financial needs, environmental concerns, and weed pressures of their farms. The program includes a representative from Kings AgriSeeds presenting on how they see farmers selecting rotations; a review by Fay Benson of an organic field crop growers survey by the NY Organic Dairy Program, and a farmer panel.

Also on January 9, Dr. Joshua Woodard, founder of Ag-Analytics.org, a live open data, open source data integration and automation platform, and farmer Luke Gianforte of Gianforte Farm, Cazenovia, NY, will offer a presentation on how to use an online tool for managing field and crop data.
