Join Cornell researchers, scientists, and faculty at Cornell Fruit Field Day, returning to Geneva after a 10-year hiatus as a premier orchard field day in the Northeast. This year's event features Dr. Terence Robinson, who has dedicated over four decades to tree fruit research and extension at Cornell University, beginning his career at the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in Geneva in 1984. Participants will have the opportunity to learn from Terence as he shares his expertise and insights, reflecting on decades of contributions to orchard systems research and grower outreach.
Held at the research farms at Cornell AgriTech in Geneva, the event will feature new and existing products, chemistries, practices, technologies, and equipment shaping today's orchard industry. Participants will tour research plots alongside Cornell experts, reviewing results relevant to commercial operations, discussing ongoing studies, and exploring anticipated future recommendations.
At the catered lunch, network with industry, and visit sponsor displays and equipment. Our keynote speaker is Commissioner of Agriculture Richard Ball.
Hosted by Cornell Cooperative Extension, Lake Ontario Ag Consulting, Cornell AgriTech, and Cornell University.
