The Land Connection in partnership with Practical Farmers of Iowa, Iowa State University, and Glacial Drift Enterprises is hosting their annual Midwest Mechanical Weed Control Field Day in Iowa this summer!

Join farmers from across the Midwest for this daylong event. Spend the morning checking out weeding tools up close and speaking with company reps at the trade show. Catch education sessions from experienced farmers and experts and engage with farmers from across the region. After a break at noon for lunch, the afternoon will feature the heart of this event: field demonstrations of weeding and cultivation tools for all scales in row crops and vegetables. Head to the demo plots specially planted with corn, beets and brassicas to see numerous tools in action.

See and Discuss:
