11:00AM - 12:00PM Applications in Third Generation Sequencing at Conagra https://zoom.us/j/95914114805

Fruit and vegetable growers are continually assessing their operations to determine where they can limit risk and increase productivity. As a result, many have expressed interest in learning more about how on-farm preharvest water treatment systems work and how they may fit within their current setup. Join this virtual training to learn about different approaches to treating water on-farm; how to implement these systems to meet requirements of the Produce Safety Rule; and how to verify that the system is operating as intended. Training dates: January 31st (1-5 pm) and February 1st (1-5 pm). Zoom information will be sent to attendees closer to the training dates. Registration closes on January 24th, 2024 at 4 pm.
