K-State Soybean Production Schools Scheduled for Early February

Nov 24, 2014

A series of four K-State Soybean Production Schools will be offered in early February 2015 to provide in-depth training targeted for soybean producers and key stakeholders. The schools will be held at four locations around the state. The schools will be sponsored by Kansas Soybean Commission.
