Webcast Gives Tour of PMN’s Online Resources

how agricultural practitioners may use PMN’s
various tools in their daily work. The
webcast was presented by Howard Brown,
current chair of the International Certified
Crop Adviser Board, and Phil Bogdan, PMN
communications manager. While oriented to
consultants, the talk provides a quick
backgrounder of use to anyone interested in
science-based agricultural management
information. The webcast is titled
An Online Resource to Support Agricultural
Practitioners and has been archived for
further viewing, sound required.
