Farm Equipment – Tractor and Implement Sizing Webinar
Join the Missouri Beginning Farmers' Program's monthly webinar. The February 3rd webinar will be on Farm Equipment - Tractor and Implementation Sizing with Charles Ellis, MU Extension Ag and Natural Resources Engineering Specialist.
As a beginning farmer many people feel the first thing they need to do is buy a tractor. But determining which tractor, what horsepower, and what types of implements you will need can be overwhelming. Charles will help walk us through how to understand the sizing and components of a tractor, identify needs and uses of a tractor and corresponding equipment needs and understanding pricing, affordability and what to consider when purchasing a tractor.
The webinar will begin at 7 pm and end by 8:30 pm. To attend the webinar go to http://univmissouri.adobeconnect.com/debikelly sign in under the "guest" with you name.
