Brief Project Summary:

Cornell Cooperative Extension is in the front line of helping the New York field crop producer clientele with crop production and pest management issues. Enhancing educational opportunities helps strengthen the outreach network and is an important component of Extension's education efforts. This funding provides for Extension agents to participate in the soybean rust identification and management classes held in August at the Southern Region Soybean Rust Workshop in Quincy, Florida.
