Direct seeders plan breakfast meetings

Palouse Direct Seeders will again conduct a series of meetings for farmers and others with questions about direct seeding. The sessions began in 2009, and attendance and interest in the organization has increased in the two years since, according to coordinator Dennis Roe.

A breakfast served by the Top Notch Cafe will be in the

Colfax Methodist Church at 7 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 27.

Todd Strader, who farms near Almota, will talk about his direct seeding experiences in using the latest technology on his winter wheat and spring wheat.

Also. Rick Jones of Wilbur, president of the Pacific Northwest Direct Seed Association, will discuss his 15 years of direct seeding experience to produce winter wheat and spring barley.
