The Annual Awards and Recogni
tion Banquet that is sponsored each
year by the Robeson County Crop
Promotion Association and the Robe
son County Agricultural Extension
Service will be held Thursday,
February 1, in the O.P. Owens
Auditorium. I would like to use this
opportunity to extend an invitation to
those who would like to attend to
make plans to join us for this activity.
However, I must caution you to call
the Extension Office and make
reservations since accomodations
will be limited.
For those who have attended this
banquet in the past, you are aware
that this activity provides an oppor
tunity to gain a greater appreciation
for what has happened in the vtfiqus
fields of agriculture in Robeson
County during the past year. In
addition, it provides a greater
appreciation for the strength of
agriculture in one of the leading
agricultural counties in the state.
With the recent abundance of
rainfall, including the snow and ice.
we should be developing some very
food soil moisture conditions for our
upcoming crops. Unfortunately, this
abundance of rainfall makes it very
inconvenient for the producers to
totally complete the harvest of their
t previous crops and to do the field
chores necessary for the nest crops.
But most will agree, it is better to
start with a wet spring than with a
dry one. Let's just hope that we will
not experience the summer heat and
drought that we did three years ago.
This is the time of year for decision
making for most of our agricultural
producers. The number of acres
planted to each crop will be
determined, various varieties will be
considered and the appropriate ones
selected for planting, and the use of
both pesticides and plant nutrients
will be determined. The most
difficult thing for the producers to
consider is what to expect from the
price of the commodities they will
produce.
The outlook for prices for the
coming year does not look much
better than they were during the
coming months. These opportunities
will be in the form of grower
meetings sponsored by Extension as
well as private businesses, commo
dity meetings, workshops, and just
informal conversations with others
involved in similar professions. For
more information about local, area,
and regional meetings on various
subjects, please call the Robeson
County Extension Office at 671-3276.
