> From July 1st, 2020 to June 30th, 2021 the Nursery Crops Extension Research Website (http://ncer.ca.uky.edu) has received 12,289 views. Compared to the previous 12-month calendar period, it received 9,173 views meaning it is exceeding last years' traffic and use by 33.97%.  Additionally, the number of new visitors to the site is up 58.31% over the previous 12-month calendar period, supporting the theory that the audience for the website is still growing and possibly a reflection of expanded interest in nursery crop production.
