Terry McAuliffe on Twitter “Fantastic tour of the Tidewater Agricultural Research Center. These folks are doing great work to develop new technologies and move Virginia's agricultural industry forward. Sorry to Georgia and Texas, but Virginia peanuts are the BEST in the country! No question about it. https://t.co/k1kA5Gu2al...

Please consider joining us tomorrow morning (December 3) at 9 AM for another weekly session of VCE Ag Today. This week we will hear presentations from Dr. Sally Taylor, Row Crop Entomologist, and Dr. David Langston, Extension Plant Pathologist, both with Virginia Tech and Virginia Cooperative Extension. Dr. Taylor will be providing updates on insect pests of row crops, and Dr. Langston will be providing an update on diseases. These presentation topics are part of our usual Crops Conferences that we hold every year in January, but due to COVID-19 these conferences will not be held in 2021, and presentations will be available through VCE Ag Today sessions and recorded Zoom webinars as a series for a virtual Crops Conference.

Please see the attached flyer for more information on tomorrow morning’s webinar. Please join us and bring any questions you may have regarding these topics. If you are not able to join us for this update, but have questions, please feel free to contact us and share your questions and we will ask them anonymously during the presentation to get answers.

~~~ 2020 VA Peanut and Pork Tour~~~
Since 2018, TAREC revived the peanut research “showcase” for growers, shellers, and peanut goods producers in Southeastern Virginia in the form of an annual field tour in mid-August. The tour, usually counting around 100 attendees, includes presentations from resident faculties at TAREC but also invited speakers from other universities. Talks include peanut entomology, pathology, w**d science, and varieties in pipeline for release from the Peanut Variety and Quality Evaluation multi-state project. Graduate students are also presenting their avantgarde research. Each year a “surprise” talk unrelated to peanut is also available. This year, understandably, the tour will be virtual and lived on Aug 14 at 2:00 pm
