I waited in the hall near the stage door at the end of the performance for Andew to appear. Once a teen and young adult volunteer in our 4-H camp program, I hadn't seen him in years. I first met him as a 7th grader who joined the youth choir I led.

Overview Three years of data indicate that liquid-injected biosolids-based fertilizers (LBF, using 'Lystegro' from Lystek) are a viable alternative to conventional forms of nitrogen (N) fertilizer on a total N basis in wheat rotations in the southern Sacramento Valley.

Join us next week for a workshop that will cover some basic wheat fertilization strategies and focus on how to use the Nitrogen Fertilizer Management for California Wheat Webtool. Yolo County: Wednesday, October 11th 2023, 9 a.m. 11:00 a.m.
