Workshop: How to Conduct an On-Farm Trial
July 12, 2016 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Ever want to apply for a SARE farmer or partnership grant? Looking to improve your farming practices through research? This workshop is for you! Farmers and Agriculture Service Providers welcome. We will provide hands-on training in setting up a replicated field plot, and include practice taking measurements and collecting data. Concepts learned may be applied to answer many questions through on-farm trials, but this workshop will use one trial “Nitrogen contribution from cover crops for vegetable crop uptake” being conducted on multiple farms in Massachusetts this fall in order to prepare farmers to conduct the trial.
Stay tuned for a follow-up workshop on data analysis and interpretation of results.
Free, but please RSVP: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/OnFarmTrial
