The 2000 Georgia Cotton Production Workshop will be in Savannah
at the Coastal Georgia Center Dec. 13-14.

The workshop is sponsored by the University of Georgia Extension
Service and the Georgia Cotton Commission. It’s intended for
growers, county agents, dealers and other agribusiness people
interested in cotton.

The program runs for two days and will last from 8:30 a.m. to
5:15 p.m. each day.

The mornings offer specialized workshops providing in-depth
discussion of production issues, such as cotton risk management
and soil management. After lunch, participants will reconvene in
workshops involving a broad range of economic issues and
emerging
production concerns such as conservation tillage and seed-rot
problems.

Preregistration is required for the workshop. A $35 registration
fee covers instruction, educational materials and refreshments.
Certified Crop Advisor and pesticide license recertification
credits are both available.

For more information or to get registration forms, contact the
county extension office. Or call the Tifton campus conference
center at the Rural Development Center at (229) 386-3416.
