Resources from CCE ENYCHP!
We are developing new ways to connect with the CCE ENYCHP team this year!
We have a Youtube page located at this link. Check out videos on Table Grape Production, Pest Updates and the
20 Minute Ag Manager - in 4 Minutes series.
We have a
Facebook Page here as well as an
Instagram page. We keep these places updated with current projects, events, and other interesting articles and deadlines.
There are also text alerts available. Fruit and vegetable farmers in 17 Eastern NY counties can now receive real time alerts on high risk disease and pest outbreaks texted directly to their cell phone. The Eastern NY Commercial Horticulture program, which is supported by local Cornell Cooperative Extension associations, will now offer text alerts to those that enroll in our program in 2019.
The text alerts will be reserved for important crop alerts that could impact management decisions immediately. For instance, if there were an outbreak of Late Blight in the area, this would be transmitted to vegetable growers.
Farmers can choose the crop for which they wish to receive updates. Additionally they can request that Ag Business Alerts be sent to them. These alerts might include due dates for crop insurance deadlines, market opportunities etc.
If you have questions, please contact enychp@cornell.edu
