Cow/Calf Best Management Practices Program Kickoff Dinner
May 10, 2009
The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, in cooperation with the Florida Cattlemen’s Association, and the University of Florida-IFAS, have scheduled a kickoff video conference to formally introduce the recently adopted Cow/Calf Best Management Practices (BMP) manual on May 14. This will be the official launch of the industry’s BMP program.
The meeting will provide producers with key information on the use of the manual, enrollment process, soil testing, and forage production as it relates to water quality protection. This is a very important program, given the vast number of acres of rangeland in Florida. Producers are encouraged to make every effort to attend.
The seminar will be held from 5:30 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at the Jay Community Center, 5259 Booker Lane in Jay. This meeting will held in conjunction with the Northwest Florida Cattlemen’s Association meeting. Dinner will be served to those who call to reserve a place for the meeting. To RSVP, call (850) 475-5230 or (850) 675-3107.
