Joshua Putman, Field Crops and Forage Specialist
Southwest New York Dairy, Livestock and Field Crops Program

The Southwest NY Diary, Livestock, Field Crops Program is excited to announce a new method of delivering field crop topics and information! The goal is to take field observations and turn them into brief articles or provide you with timely updates. In addition, this may serve as an announcement for future events and trainings. The Field Crop Chronicle, compiled by Josh Putman, will be made available once per week with topics centered around field crop and forage production in Southwest New York. Future FCC's will be made available to you on our website as well as our newsletters, mailings, etcetera. Attached is the first Field Crop Chronicle to be made available. We hope you enjoy!
