In 2021, a new series of hour-long webinars was launched with great success. For 2022, the K-State Crop Talk webinar series is back and will be focused on agronomic topics targeted for northwest and north central Kansas growers. Topics range from soil fertility, weed management, cover crops, and weather resources. 

Each webinar will begin at noon and last until 1 p.m., on Mondays. The first one was on Jan. 31 through March 7. There will be one Certified Crop Advisor (CCA) credit for each session.

These webinars are open to all and there is no cost. Upon registration, participants will receive an email with instructions to attend via Zoom or YouTube. Register: https://www.northwest.ksu.edu/events/
