NEVADA, Iowa – There are new opportunities to harvest corn stover near Nevada in central Iowa. Iowa State University Extension and Outreach will host six meetings to address emerging opportunities related to stover harvesting for the biomass feedstock needs of local industries. These workshops are a collaborative effort between Iowa Corn Growers Association, Verbio North America and Iowa State University Extension and Outreach.

Stover harvesting can impact economic, agronomic and water quality production factors. The meetings will address many of the positives and negatives of stover harvesting and discuss how stover harvesting can be managed within corn production. Crop producers, landowners, crop consultants, agronomists, service providers and others with an interest in stover harvest and its removal from farm fields are encouraged to attend.

All workshops are the same, so participants need to attend only one location. Pre-registration is required for these two-hour workshops. Interested participants can call or mail in their registration form available online. Dates, times and locations for the workshops are as follows.
