1/ Honey #bees play a crucial role in the production of many fruit, tree nut and vegetable crops, yet their natural habitats often do not coincide with the locations of #agricultural #crops that require #pollination services.

Hey! @ACEatIL is hiring! We want a strong researcher who can support our undergrad programs in agribusiness. We have great young faculty (and senior colleagues!) I'm chairing this search, so reach out to me if you have questions. https://t.co/XqJHZaF4KE

1/ The #Pasture, #Rangeland and Forage Rainfall Index is a #crop #insurance product underutilized by Illinois livestock and forage producers. Only 6% of the eligible acres in Illinois were insured in 2024, much lower than use west of the Mississippi.

Yes, please consider this special issue for your work! Let me or other three awesome editors know if there are any questions!

[Ag&Natural Resources @ucanr]

Growers can use a new cost study for growing #tomatoes to help make business decisions. @UCDavisARE and #UCCE advisors released an analysis based upon a hypothetical well-managed farming operation. @Dr_BGood

[Risk Management Agency @usdaRMA]

If an established crop policy is not available in a particular state or county, producers may request that their RMA Regional Office expand the program to their county the next crop year. Details: https://t.co/4nVxPbwVKd

[Brittney Goodrich @Dr_BGood]

Some specialty crop growers in CA (and elsewhere) may be interested in this. New insurance programs coming for:
•Alfalfa seed
•Cultivated wild rice
•Forage production
•Mint*
•Onions*
•Potatoes*

[Risk Management Agency @usdaRMA]

.@USDA is expanding insurance coverage options for specialty crops and other actual production history crop programs with greater enterprise unit possibilities. This gives producers more options for managing risk. https://t.co/RvrUEMzbLx

@drlouispl @ucdavis @ucdavisvetmed Yes I will be in DC! Hope to see you there?
