If you haven’t ever attended a Syngenta Learning Centers field day then I hope my coverage this week helps you make up for that fact. In fact, I hope it encourages you to attend one in the future.

I’ve received a number of comments on the coverage and appreciate all of them. For example, it was noted that since I was posting over several days that the coverage was kind of broken up, meaning that Laura and I had posts on other topics in between posts from the event. It’s true that I normally try to put all my event posts in order while I’m there or within a day but that wasn’t possible this week. This is why I use categories on all my posts. If you use the Syngenta Category Link (http://agwired.com/category/syngenta/) then you’ll see the unbroken coverage of the event of which there are 23 stories including this one. The posts include 14 interviews and audio from one presentation, 3 video clips and some of the 228 pictures I shot. You’ll find 114 of them in the online photo album. The online photos and video clips are tagged and easy to find by searching just like the posts themselves.

All of the interviews are posted so that you can play them immediately to listen to and also as MP3 file links so you can download them. That’s because farm broadcasters and web editors are welcome to download and use the audio in their programs and I want to make it easy for them to obtain the audio.

Thanks to Jim Elliott and all the Syngenta team who were on hand at the event and also to Gardner Hatch and Catherine Wang and all the folks at Gibbs & Soell for bringing me in to do this. Let’s do it again next year!
