One of the things in N.C. agriculture that is helping 2021 feel a little more normal is the return of field days at the state’s agricultural research stations. During 2020, several of the field days were cancelled, and others switched to a virtual online format. This year, the calendar has a few field days that once again welcome people to the research stations.

Field days operate like an open house with some presentations and/or tours on the schedule. They give people a chance to see the work university researchers are doing and ask them questions about their projects on the stations. The general public is invited to attend, and the field days can be of particular interest to farmers and industry partners such as regional agronomists, agricultural extension agents, soil and water conservationists, seed company representatives and more.
