GEORGIA, — There’s no culture without agriculture.

Farming practices survive through evolving technology; learning the latest and best practices helps farmers maximize the potential of their crops.

Local farmers, landowners, and agriculture students gathered in Perry to celebrate this year’s fifth farm field day with fellow National Black Growers Council (NBGC) members, sponsors and nonprofit organizations.

Their goal is to improve the efficiency, productivity and sustainability of black row crop farmers.

The field day started at the fairgrounds in Perry, where busses took members to visit James Farms in Montezuma.

“New technology is the primary objective in having these field days,” Interim Executive Director Loston Rowe said.

Rowe is a farmer from Memphis, Tennessee.

The USDA’s Chief Scientist, Chavonda Jacobs-Young, traveled from Washington, D.C., to attend the field day in Central Georgia.

“I was just excited to see the intersection between technology and traditional agriculture,” Jacobs-Young said.
