Northwest Region Manure Management Field Day Slated.

The Venango Conservation District has teamed up with the Crawford County Conservation District, the Erie County Conservation District and the Mercer County Conservation District to host a Manure Management Field Day event. 

Every farm in Pennsylvania that applies manure or agricultural process wastewater is required to have and implement a written Manure Management Plan.  You can join us at our field day to learn the facts about manure management and tips that will help you successfully complete a manure management plan for your own operation.

Topics we'll cover at the field day include Manure Management Regulations and the Manual, Biosecurity Practices, Farm Vehicle Transportation Regulations, Manure Spreader Calibration Demonstrations, Ag E&S Regulations, PA One Stop Mapping Introduction and more.

So, join us on Friday April 8 2016 at the Apple Shamrock Dairy Farm in Townville PA from 9am to 3pm.  We're asking that you register for the event, but there is no fee and lunch is provided.  Please register by April 1st with Shawn at the Mercer County Conservation District 1-724-662-2242.
