AgDay College Roadshow Makes Annual Stop at Purdue

The AgDay College Roadshow made it's annual stop at Purdue University to feature the latest research going on in the College of Agriculture. Panelists for show included Ariana Torres from Horticulture, Chad Fiechter from Agricultural Economics, and our own Dan Quinn, Extension Corn Specialist for Agronomy.

Dan spoke to how well crops are looking overall, even despite some recent dryness and disease, as we approach - and in some cases begin - harvest season. Laura Bowling, Agronomy Department Head was also featured in a short video covering her research into utilizing tile runoff water to help supplement crops during dryer times via subsurface drip irrigation.

You can view the full episode below, and watch more episodes of AgDay TV on their website and YouTube channel.
