FARWELL – The Parmer County Cotton Variety/Economics Workshop conducted by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service, is slated for 10 a.m. Feb. 7 in the Farwell Community Center.
Benji Henderson, AgriLife Extension agent in Parmer County, said the workshop is designed as a preseason update for area farmers.
“It’s still a ways off from spring planting, but now is a good time to study the many varieties of cotton now available and the economics associated with them,” Henderson said. “We’ve brought together a group of agency experts and company representatives who are well versed with our region. They’ll be here to provide the information necessary to help our producers make those all-important decisions for the coming crop year.”
Three Texas Department of Agriculture continuing education units will be available for those with a private applicators license.
Individual registration is $10 at the door. The fee includes lunch.
