2023 SIU/NREC/ILFB/ISA Summer Field Day 

We are so excited to be back on the SIU-Carbondale campus for the 2023 Summer Field Day. This year we have invited the Agronomy Team from the Illinois Soybean Association to join us and provide updates on the research investments being made through the soybean checkoff. We haven't been on campus since 2021 so we have a lot of new information to share!
