Three Regional Hay & Pasture Conferences

Three Regional Hay and Pasture Conferences have been scheduled for January 2013:
  1. Delmarva  Hay & Pasture Conference, January 15, Delaware State Fairgrounds, Harrington, Delaware;
  2. Southern Maryland Hay & Pasture Conference, January 16, Baden Volunteer Fire Hall, Brandywine, Maryland;
  3. Tri-State (MD, PA, and WV) Hay & Pasture Conference, January 17, Pleasant Valley Community Center, Oakland, Maryland.
According to Dr. Les Vough, conference coordinator and retired Forage Crops Specialist, "These conferences will provide valuable and very useful forage information to help improve the quality of the hay, silage and pasture that you produce."

In addition, a Delmarva Hay & Pasture Mini-Conference will be held January 14, 6-9 p.m., at the Delaware State Fairgrounds.  This is an abbreviated session intended primarily for small and part-time farmers who cannot attend the full day conference.
