Two days of comprehensive, hands-on learning await participants of the WSU Wheat Academy. Growers and industry professionals from all over the Pacific Northwest are invited to the WSU Pullman campus on December 13 and 14 to learn about disease diagnostics, insect pest management, herbicide decisions, nutrient management, and much more directly from the experts during intensive, 90-minute sessions.
The Wheat Academy will begin at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, December 13 and will be held in the Vogel Plant Biosciences Building Teaching Laboratories on the WSU Pullman campus. Registration is $85 for growers and $170 for industry representatives and is limited to the first 72 registrants. The registration fee covers parking on campus, two lunches, a lightly catered social hour, and light refreshments throughout the two-day event. Because registration is limited, we ask that individual companies limit the number of employees they send to the Wheat Academy to a maximum of 10.
We have been approved for Pesticide Recertification Credits for Idaho and Washington for the following courses:
- Diagnosing and Managing Diseases of Wheat, Dr. Tim Murray and Cassandra Bates
- Biology and Management of Hessian Fly & Aphids in Wheat, Dale Whaley and Dr. Sanford Eigenbrode
- Managing Weeds with Less Reliance on Herbicides, Dr. Ian Burke and Dr. Drew Lyon
CCA CEU’s will be available for all sessions.
