UKREC is the home base for many Grain Crops Programs and research. Over the course of the past year, our University of KY Martin Gatin College of Agriculture Food and Environment Extension Specialists and researchers have worked together to produce the Corn, Soybean and Tobacco Field Day, the Winter Wheat Meeting, and the Wheat Field Day. More than three hundred people were given the opportunity to gain insight and education credits as they were presented subject material from economics and IPM to agronomics and soil nutrition and weather.
