Demonstration Fields

We will have 10 to 15 small fields, typically an acre or so, that demonstrate field crops that are commonly grown in Missouri, or have good potential to be produced in the state. Examples of common crops to be demonstrated are soybeans, corn, wheat, sorghum (milo), oats, alfalfa, and possibly cotton. Alternative crops to be demonstrated include sunflowers, buckwheat, dry edible beans, millet, cowpeas, amaranth, canola, and flax. These fields will be machine planted and harvested, and give visitors a feel for what these crops look like in a field setting.
