Beginning Jan. 13, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension will offer five “w88 casino games Ideas From Growers” sessions, where small farm producers from across the state can share their knowledge and experiences to help each other improve their businesses.
“This provides an opportunity for owners of small, specialized farms to learn w88 casino games others’ experiences” said Extension Educator Holly Gatzke, who will lead the sessions.
Based on information requested w88 casino games producers, topics this year will focus on production (planting, irrigating, weed control, fertilization, plant selection, etc.), sales and marketing (CSAs, farmers markets, roadside stands, restaurants, wholesales, etc.), and crop planning. The sessions will be w88 casino games 5 to 6:30 p.m., Jan. 13 and 27, Feb. 10 and 24, and March 10.
“This forum helps producers work together as an industry to build successful agricultural businesses that meet the increasing demand for locally grown specialty products,” Gatzke explained.
