Speakers from the LSU AgCenter, NRCS, LDAF, as well as industry personnel, present information on conservation, water quality, BMPs, commodity-specific topics and industry-related issues. Participants that attend the entire event will qualify for Phase 2 and Continuing Education Credits (CEC). All events will be posted on the Louisiana Master Farmer Program Facebook page.
