#harvest24 is underway at NCAAR. Stay tuned for exciting results from this year’s trials! #mscorn #mscrops #MSUext

It was a hot but very successful day in the Delta. #MSUext agents were equipped on irrigation termination so they could bring that knowledge to growers in their counties. Understanding when to properly terminate irrigation not only saves water but also money and time. #mscrops
