Farmers get recognition on National Ag Day. We look at a sugarbeet weeding robot. Maple syrup season started about a month earlier. We visit a ranch that had a calving season surprise: triplets.
The event will include a sugarbeet-focused trade show and speakers from the world of agriculture talking about topics of interest to local and national audiences March 13-14.
Zack Clark, vice president of government affairs for the American Sugar Beet Growers Association, spoke at the annual International Sugar Beet Institute in Fargo on Wednesday, March 15, 2023.
The event features national agricultural leaders, legislators and sugar specialists. Scheduled this year for March 15-16 in Fargo, the show is filled with all things sugarbeet related.
Strip tillage management systems reduce the amount of topsoil loss that results from wind erosion, decreases wind damage to young sugarbeet plants and conserves moisture.
