2020 NYS Processing Vegetable Advisory Meetings
We are holding the processing commodity advisory meetings virtually on Zoom since we are not able to hold an in-person meeting this year due to COVID-19 safety restrictions.

The beet and carrot meeting will be held the morning of Wednesday, December16. You can log-in with the same Zoom link for any or all sessions. The meetings will cover a review of the 2020 growing season, reports of funded projects, and discussion of research priorities for the coming year.
Cost: FREE!
