The Kentucky Agricultural Training School will host a late season workshop from 8 a.m.-3:30 p.m. CDT Aug. 22 at the University of Kentucky Research and Education Center in Princeton.

The daylong, hands-on clinic is ideal for corn and soybean producers and crop consultants and is part of the UK Grain and Forage Center of Excellence’s mission to provide producers with real-time educational information at critical times during the growing season.

UK College of Agriculture, Food and Environment specialists will discuss late-season agronomic activities and harvest preparation. Topics include corn and soybean disease management, combine adjustments and operation to reduce harvest loss, fundamentals of setting a combine and forages as a cover crop.

Class size is limited to 30 people, and registration is required. To register, visit https://www.eventbrite.com/e/aug-22-kats-workshop-tickets-65558927517. This clinic will be held rain or shine, so participants will need to dress accordingly. Lunch is provided.
