As the Covid-19 pandemic persists, and as government and University recommendations maintain that we should social distance, the SJC and Delta Field Crops Meeting will now be VIRTUAL. The meeting will still take place THIS Friday, January 14th from 8am to noon. The agenda is shown below, but please see the attached (downloadable) meeting agenda for the link to the meeting. No RSVP or registration is required ahead of the meeting, but upon entering the virtual meeting room, anyone seeking continuing education credits will need to register using a provided survey. Available continuing education credits are for pesticide licensing (DPR: 0.5 of L, 2.0 of O), certified crop advisers (1.0 of NM, 2.5 of PM), and nitrogen and irrigation management credits for the Irrigated Lands Program (1.0). Please reach out to the SJC Cooperative Extension office if you have any questions. Thank you for your understanding as we pivot to a virtual meeting. We hope to see you virtually on Friday.
8:00am Zoom waiting room opens. Attendees will be admitted shortly thereafter.
