Nebraska Alfalfa Expo heads to Kearney

The Nebraska Alfalfa Marketing Association (NAMA) will be presenting the 13th Annual Mid-America Alfalfa Expo Feb. 6 and 7, at the Buffalo County Fairgrounds, Kearney, Neb. More than 100 companies will showcase the latest in forage handling and production equipment during this two-day event.

On Feb. 6, "Alfalfa yield vs. quality" will be discussed by Dr. Neal Martin, director of the U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center. That afternoon, equipment manufacturers will hold a panel discussion on new technology and equipment for 2007. At 3:30 p.m., an exhibitor-consigned auction of forage-related products will be held. This auction allows producers the opportunity to try new products, purchase favorite products or try new equipment , while supporting the efforts to promote alfalfa across the country.

On Feb. 7, Gene Ross of Nelson Irrigation will offer tips on managing irrigation efficiency and productivity, and Martin will discuss new uses for alfalfa, including biofuels. The expo ends with a producer panel and open forum featuring NAMA members.

There is no cost to attending the Mid-America Alfalfa Expo and alfalfa producers from the entire country are invited to attend.

For more information, contact Barb Kinnan, executive director, at nebalf@cozadtel.net or 800-743-1649. Visit www.alfalfaexpo.com for a complete expo schedule.
