Keay said speakers will give a legislative summary and regulatory update and cover topics such as agronomy practices and pests, industry outlook, crop enterprise budgets, processing, contracts and more.
The workshop runs 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 16, at the MU Extension Center in Warren County, 107 W. Walton St., Warrenton. Register online at extension.missouri.edu/warren or call 636-456-3444 by Nov. 14. Contact Keay at Justin.Keay@missouri.edu or 314-400-7388 for more information.
