Collapse ▲2019 Road Show Production Meetings
As always, the Blacklands Extension Agents will be hosting the Road Show Production Meeting series. This year two different series of Road Show meetings will be offered, the agronomic series and the pest management series. Six meetings will be held in Beaufort, Hyde, and Tyrrell Counties.
Agronomic meetings will begin at 9 a.m. and will feature presentations from Dr. Ron Heiniger, Dr. Rachel Vann, Dr. Carl Crozier, and area N.C. Cooperative Extension agents.
Pest management meetings will begin at 10 a.m. and will feature presentations from Dr. Charlie Cahoon, Dr. Wes Everman, Dr. Anders Huseth, Dr. Dominic Reisig, and Dr. Lindsey Thiessen. If you need to re-certify your private applicator license, 2 hours of X, N, D, and O credits will be available at these meetings and V trainings will be offered at 8 a.m. the day of the pest management meetings. If you need to re-certify your pesticide license in 2019, you will receive a letter in the mail indicating the number of credits you need.
All meetings will end with a sponsored meal and all meetings will have CCA credits available.
