International Agronomy Day

By Aaron Hager

The Department of Crop Sciences will host International Agronomy Day on August 31, 2015 at the Crop Sciences Research and Education Center at the University of Illinois. We have developed International Agronomy Day as an opportunity for international visitors to attend a field tour at the University of Illinois and interact with many of our faculty and staff.  International Agronomy Day will take place the day before the Farm Progress Show opens in Decatur to provide an opportunity for international visitors traveling to the United States to attend the Farm Progress Show to learn more about the research being conducted by our faculty and staff. Advanced registration is required to attend International Agronomy Day. More information about the program is available at http://internationalagronomyday.org/ Information in Spanish is available at http://spanish.internationalagronomyday.org/
