4R Farming, Biologicals, and More!

Queenstown, Maryland (August 22, 2022) – The Delaware Maryland 4R (DEMD4R) Alliance is preparing for its annual 4R Field Day being held on August 31st at the Wye Research and Education Center. This year, DEMD4R is working with the University of Maryland Agronomy Program to offer more to the annual event.

We hope to see you at 8:00 AM to network with event sponsors and other farmers. At 9:00 AM attendees will rotate through three 45-minute stations covering the 4R’s of Manure Management, Splitting Nitrogen, and Strip-Tillage. Then everyone will come together at 11:45 AM to hear from our Keynote, Dr. Trenton Roberts with the University of Arkansas. Dr. Roberts will be showcasing his findings on pivot bio biologicals. After a delicious lunch, catered by Sisters by Chance, enjoy an agronomy tour of the Wye. Through a guided tour, enjoy five 15-minute stations showcasing ongoing crop production research here in Maryland.
