The University of Georgia cotton and peanut teams will host 2021’s UGA Cotton & Peanut Research Field Day Sept. 8 in Tifton, Georgia.
This annual event provides an excellent opportunity for anyone who is interested in learning more about our two of the most widely planted row crops grown in Georgia.
There is no cost to attend, but organizers request you RSVP if you plan to attend — just for a lunch headcount . Call Ashley Golden at 229-386-3366 or email her at ashley.golden@uga.edu.
The Georgia Cotton Commission and the Georgia Peanut Commission will sponsor the field day’s lunch, in addition to providing necessary funding to support UGA’s research and education efforts.
