27th National No-Tillage Conference

27^th National No-Tillage Conference

Wabash County Soil & Water Conservation District would like to invite you to attend the National No-Tillage Conference in January of 2019. The event will take place from the 8^th-11^th and farmers from different areas are invited to network and share farming techniques. Wabash County SWCD will cover the cost of up to 10 registrations (1 per farm/family) who own and/or operate a farm that is primarily in Wabash County, giving priority to first time participants. Wabash County SWCD will only be covering the registration cost and not hotel, meal or travel expenses.

The National No-Tillage Conference is a great experience for farmers. It gives farmers the chance to meet new farmers and have fun experiencing the panels that the conference has to offer. The conference is broken up into four parts that make the experience worthwhile during the four days. The first is 12 general session presentations, that feature knowledgeable speakers that offer abundance of no-tilling ideas and strategies. The second is 80 idea-swapping No-till Roundtables where there will be peer-to-peer discussion groups to solve your critical no-till farming challenges. Third is 23 intensive No-Till Classrooms that will be focused, in depth discussion sessions that allow you to ask and answer questions with fellow no-tillers. The fourth part is hours of valuable networking. There is plenty of time for those all-important, one-on-one opportunities to meet and trade ideas with other no till-farmers.

The conference is located in Indianapolis Downtown Marriott, 350 W Maryland St. Farmers that have attended this conference for many years claim that they learn something new every single year, so be sure to register with the Wabash County SWCD to get your registration cost covered.
