The 2018 Horizon Ag Louisiana Field Day, featuring the new Provisia™ Rice System, Provisia rice variety PVL01 and the latest top-performing Clearfield® rice varieties for the region, will be held June 26 at Richard Farms near Kaplan, Louisiana.
Horizon Ag partnered with BASF to bring the Provisia Rice System to market in 2018, and PVL01 has attracted a lot of interest from farmers in Louisiana this season.
“Much like when BASF, the LSU AgCenter and Horizon Ag worked together to launch the Clearfield® Production System for rice, we see this as another important tool, enabling rice producers to more effectively manage costly weed problems while planting high-yielding, superior quality Horizon Ag varieties,” said Dr. Tim Walker, Horizon Ag general manager.
The field day also will give farmers an opportunity to see and hear updates on Horizon Ag Clearfield varieties popular in the region, like CL111 and CL151; the latest high-performing Clearfield varieties like CL153 and CL172; and promising experimental rice seed lines.
Registration begins at 4:30 p.m., and the field day tour starts at 5 p.m. The event will include guest speakers, and dinner will follow.
