Citrus Guide is Coming to Town
Santa Clause is coming to town - and so is the December issue of Citrus Industry magazine. The issue will feature the annual Citrus Guide containing contact information for all key citrus organizations, agencies and researchers, as well as ag vendors. The December issue also includes all the regular citrus articles that growers depend on. An article on pesticide handling will include a test that growers can take for CEU credit. Additional CEU articles are available here. Another article will address citrus management under saline conditions. Citrus Industry editor Ernie Neff has the details. |
