Mid-Atlantic Crop Management School 2026

The Mid-Atlantic Crop Management School comes back to Ocean City this November, giving crop advisers, agronomists, consultants and growers from across the region two and a half days to dig into new research and practical field questions. Hosted by University of Maryland Extension, the school runs up to five sessions at once each hour, so you can build a schedule around what matters most in your work, whether that’s soil and water, nutrient management, crop management or pest management. The sessions focus on new and advanced material and leave room for group discussion, so you’ll come away with ideas you can bring to the field and to your clients.

Registration includes all sessions and handouts, three continental breakfasts, lunch on Tuesday and Wednesday, and refreshment breaks. Attendees can earn Certified Crop Adviser CEUs across several categories, plus pesticide recertification and nutrient management consultant credits for Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Virginia. The number of credits depends on the sessions you choose.

There’s time to connect after sessions too. On Tuesday evening, join the Happy Hour and Farm Duel Competition at Schooners inside the Princess Royale. On Wednesday evening, Mid-Atlantic CCA hosts the 2026 CCA Reception, sponsored by Mid-Atlantic 4R Nutrient Stewardship. It’s free for all attendees and includes the CCA of Excellence Award and recognition of 10-, 20- and 30-year Certified Crop Advisers. Seating is limited, so reserve your spot at the end of registration.

Session descriptions are in the 2026 program booklet on the University of Maryland Extension event page, and you’ll choose your classes after you register.
