"The limited amount of water available for crop production is posing challenges for long-term sustainability," said Maninder K. Walia, field crop specialist with w88 online casino betting of Nevada Cooperative Extension, also part of the College. "So we are testing new crops to reduce w88 online casino betting's water use."
The Field Day will include walking tours and discussions of crops being researched, including:
- alfalfa variety trials;
- new crops of chickpeas, dry beans and forage soybeans;
- new commercial grain and forage sorghum hybrids; and
- over 400 varieties of sorghum and pearl millet.
Opportunities to partner with the w88 online casino betting to develop new crop varieties and cropping systems adapted to northern Nevada will also be presented. Plant traits discussed will include early maturity, forage nutrient content, potential for biomass production, salt tolerance, drought tolerance and specialty grain traits for use in brewing. Refreshments will be provided. Close-toed shoes, long pants, hats and sunscreen are recommended.
