Episode 2: Greene County Fields with Hannah Howe In Episode 2 of Between the Rows, Rachel Howell sits down with Hannah Howe, Greene County Field Crops Extension Agent, to talk about what’s happening in the fields across Greene County this growing season. Hannah shares a little about her role in Extension and gives us a firsthand look at the crops, challenges, and conditions she’s seeing in the county. We talk about the questions farmers are calling about, pest and disease concerns, fertility issues, management practices that are paying off, and what has surprised her in the field this year. We also look ahead to harvest and discuss what growers should be watching over the next few weeks, along with practical advice for making the most of the rest of the growing season. We also talk about upcoming pesticide license training opportunities in Greene County.
