Host
2017 LERGP Annual Winter Grower Conference - Sponsorship Opportunities
March 15, 2017
If you are interested in how technology is going to change the way you grow grapes in the future you will be interested in the morning session that is devoted to project updates for the Efficient Vineyard SCRI project.
The afternoon will have speakers on how to make Crop Insurance work for you and the ever important pesticide recertification credits. We got a Valentine ’s Day present from the NYS DEC yesterday when they informed us that we will be able to provide 2.00 credits for attending the afternoon presentations. We are still waiting to hear back from PDA but typically they provide double the credits of DEC (PDA gives 1 credit per half hour talk while DEC gives 1 credit per hour of talk) so we are hoping to provide 4.0 credits for the afternoon talks for those with a Pennsylvania pesticide applicators license.
