All those interested are invited to attend a free field tour on Thursday, June 24, 2010. Registration is at 7:30 AM at the Palouse Conservation Field Station just north of Pullman; buses will depart promptly at 8:30 AM.
WSU and USDA-ARS will host 50 international visitors representing direct seed farmers from Europe, Australia, and New Zealand for a morning bus tour to the Palouse Rock Lake Conservation District direct seed drill research and demonstration field trials. A complimentary lunch will follow. The lunch program will include presentations from direct seeders visiting from Germany and New Zealand. After lunch, researchers will lead an early afternoon tour highlighting research on direct seed cropping systems, drills, pathogens and weeds at the Palouse Conservation Field Station.
