Full Day Wednesday, June 17th 7:30am to 5pm (3 CEUs)

The  Research Field Conference with Pfaltzgraff Farms is right around the corner! Join us June 16-17th for hands -on experiences that will teach you why bugs LOVE your crops, and how much residue will actually change the climate on your farm. The first 60 registrants will receive a digital refractometer to use in the field on the 17th and take home to start making informed decisions and build crop resiliency.  

This two day conference will kick off with an afternoon with Dr. Thomas Dykstra, and hold onto your seats because it finishes with Dr. Jerry Hatfield. You'll see the full spectrum presented from soil biology (with Rion Naus), to plant health, climatology, and insects. All of the pieces come together in an intricate dance and you'll get hands-on experience with brix testing, seeing microbiology at play, and learning how to apply practices that fit YOUR operation to build resiliency and stay profitable in challenging times.

Pfaltzgraff Farms is known as a leader in innovation for dryland farming. 2025 has been no exception. This is your chance to see what's been working, what hasn't, and ways that PFZ Farms has had to innovate with a container farming system. If this dryland farmer can do it, you know you’ll walk away with practical and implementable options for your operation.
