COLLEGE CORNER, Ohio — Apple Farm Service will hose the Precision Academy on Jan. 6 at the Hueston Woods State Park Conference Center in College Corner, Ohio.

“We can’t wait to host this academy,” states Alex Ryan, precision manager for Apple Farm Service. “It’s going to be a great day packed with industry experts, new technology, and opportunities for learning and networking.”

Those who attend the academy will hear from a large panel of regional and national experts, have time for open discussion and round tables, and enjoy a complementary catered breakfast and lunch.

This large panel of experts includes Tracy Intihar (assistant director of the Ohio Department of Agriculture), John Fulton (professor at the of College of Food, Ag, and Bio Engineering at the Ohio State University) and Jim Love (light robotics manager and herbicide specialist at Beck’s Hybrids).

“This free event is open to everyone,” says Kent Holmes, marketing manager for Apple Farm Service, “whether you farm thousands of acres, or you’re a high school student just wanting to learn what precision agriculture is.”

“This is by no means a sales pitch,” Ryan mentioned. “Yes, Apple Farm Service is organizing this event, but the purpose of this event is to offer current knowledge and outlook on current and future precision ag topics. We understand that the future of agriculture will be done with precision applications. We want to share our enthusiasm and give you the opportunity to gain useful knowledge you can use to improve your farming operations.”
