The 17th Annual No-till on the Plains Winter Conference will be held in Salina, Kan., January 29-30, 2013. This conference has grown to become the largest continuous no-till conference in North America and offers something for everyone. They have a variety of sessions from beginner to advanced levels and a trade show focusing on no-till. 

Through a special arrangement with University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension, they are again offering a reduced registration fee of $75 for the first 20 first-time Nebraska producer attendees who register by January 11, a $100 savings over the early registration price of $175 ($225 at the door).

While registration is available on-line, to take advantage of the reduced registration fee for first-time attendees, you must register by calling the No-till on the Plains office at 888-330-5142.

More information about the No-till on the Plains Winter Conference is available in the program brochure and on the No-till on the Plains website.
