AG ALERTS AVAILABLE AT REQUEST

Ag Alerts have become pretty well known bulletins in the past few years. They are put out through the Renville County Extension Office. Other counties may put out similar bulletins but different content. They are placed in local coffee shops and business places that farmers/producers may frequent. They are produced weekly (may vary some) during the growing season. They are intended to keep producers as up to date as possible on the most recent events that are affecting them. The Ag Alert has been expanded to be emailed in a mass mailing to producers requesting them. If you would like to be included in these Ag Alert emails, please send a note to Christa.M.Scott@ndsu.edu and ask to be put on the Ag Alert list.
