Please join us on Thursday, June 30, 10 a.m. – 2:30 p.m., at the University of Idaho variety trial plots, located to the west of the home of Tim Dillin, 5285 Farm to Market Rd. We will tour this year’s trials comparing new releases of spring and winter wheat as well as spring and winter barley. Speakers from the University of Idaho will be discussing spring canola and mustard varieties, insect pests, and the market outlook for grain and brassica crops.
