"National Agriculture Day" virtual panel discussion

Agriculture is one of four key priorities identified in the Illinois Land Conservation Act, which is the legislation that established Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie 25 years ago. (1) Recreation; (2) Education and Research; and (3) Restoration are also priorities. How are crops of corn and soybean and cattle and bison grazing helping to restore the land where the Joliet Arsenal was instrumental? How is grazing an important component of the bison experiment? Find out from the USDA FS specialists who are directly involved in these projects. To register e-mail SM.FS.Midewin_RSVP@usda.gov or call 815-423-6370
