Dear NJ Agriculture Producers and Partners,

Fall greetings! Please add my email to your contact list for Rutgers Cooperative Extension of Salem County.

Scheduling: Over the next months in preparation for the spring planting season, I would like to connect and get to know your farming and agriculture business operations. As soils are the foundation to build upon, please let me know where your operation is located in NJ so I can make note on the USDA NJ Soil Survey Map in the producer contact files I am creating. I look forward to discussing three year crop rotation histories, current crop status, plans for 2021 and learn about past, present and future weed, fertility and pest issues of concern in row crop, forages and pastures. This information will assist me in building out my work plan for 2021. Please reach out to me via email and let me know when would be a good time to connect on the phone or in a video call; and what social media platforms work best for you at this time.

Regards,

Melissa A. Bravo, M.S. Agronomy | Assistant Professor, County Agent III
