Calling all corn and soybean producers and agricultural advisers! The United Soybean Board (USB), in partnership with the Midwestern Regional Climate Center (MRCC), Iowa State Extension, Iowa Department of Agriculture & Land Stewardship, and the Iowa Soybean Association, invites you to a virtual workshop informing the future of the MRCC’s Ag Climate Dashboard and new ag climate tool production.
The Ag Climate Dashboard provides climate and agricultural data for producers, advisers, and researchers in the Midwest. Here’s a sneak peek.
- Access up-to-date weather data, forecasts, and historical records
- Explore interactive tools for crop growth, pest forecasting, and risk evaluation
- Monitor climate trends, anomalies, and extreme events relevant to agriculture
- Discover new agricultural climate tools and resources
Back to the workshop… Why join us, you ask? Your insights will directly influence the development of new weather tools and the completion of this new Ag Climate Dashboard to help your farm and operation make better weather-informed decisions. And… by the way…The first 25 registrants will receive a $350 honorarium for their time and expertise!
