Louisiana Ag Consultants Annual Meeting Next Month in Marksville
The Louisiana Agricultural Technology & Management Conference sponsored by the Louisiana Agricultural Consultants Association will be held Monday morning through noon Wednesday, February 11-13, 2019 at Paragon Casino Resort in Marksville, LA. Jay Mahaffey will be featured in the pre-conference symposium on Monday morning, talking about good agronomics and decision making in grain crops and cotton. Attendance in this symposium will be limited, and pre-registration is required.
In addition to the general sessions where presentations will include factors influencing fertility in soil to the latest in precision ag, there will be specific crop breakout sessions on cotton, rice, and sugarcane. Over 30 sustaining members will be exhibiting, and the majority of these will be participating in emerging technology presentations at the conference. Our conference format has changed, so don’t miss the chance to see what we’ve done to make this meeting better than ever!
Technical presentations during meals (breakfasts and luncheons) will be given by our sponsoring sustaining members. A mixer will be held after sessions on Monday to allow a time of networking among peers. Networking is one of the most important aspects of this annual conference. In addition to visiting with fellow consultants and others in our industry, a silent auction will be held with proceeds going to scholarship funding.
This conference provides recertification of consultant and commercial applicator licenses. CCA CEUs are also available. The preliminary program is posted on the LACA website at www.laca1.org, as well as registration form, hotel information, and much more. The final program will be posted on the website prior to the meeting and hard copies distributed at the meeting.
