The Best Practices Exchange Workshop was designed to bring insight and knowledge of Biovante products, as well as provide sound agronomic practices that can help increase productivity. While it may appear that some the products and practices being discussed are “out-of-the box”, it will none the less challenge you to consider how changes, if any, can be made to your farming operation.
