The University of Illinois Extension is inviting producers out for a day of great information and demonstrations at this year's annual Dudley-Smith Field Day in Christian County. 

Terri Casey, Director of the University of Illinois Extension in Logan, Menard, and Sangamon Counties, explains that this day is an opportunity for producers to come to the Dudley-Smith Research Farm on June 17th, tour the property, and hear about the latest research and information they are working on. 

Much of this year's focus will include water runoff and tile drainage, which are timely topics in agriculture. Miller says the Extension is focused on providing reliable and relevant information to local producers. 

Not only is it a great opportunity for information, but the day is free and will offer lunch as well. She feels that having the Dudley-Smith Research Farm in central Illinois is a very useful tool for local producers to keep up with. 

They are asking that participants register by June 12th. Learn more and register for the event by visiting extension.illinois.edu/lms.
